When did you start telling people you were pregnant?

We just found out we are pregnant and I'm so excited. I want to tell everyone!

When we were pregnant with DS, I told our closest friends around 5 weeks.

We are seeing some our closest friends this weekend. I want to tell them so badly!!!

Re: When did you start telling people you were pregnant?

I didn't find out I was PG until I was 6 weeks, so I'm not sure what I say is relevant. But I told my dad right away. We told the ILs and my mom at 7 weeks. We waited until we saw the heartbeat at 8 weeks to tell anyone else.

Oh, I told the girls at the gym like the day I knew... but I don't really know them IRL... just gym life. Chat Icon

After 12 w we told all our close friends one at a time.

And we posted on FB two days ago at just about 15 w... so now the world knows. Chat Icon

It's a really personal decision, of course! You should go with whatever you're comfortable with!!!!

I told my BFF at 6 weeks- we didn't tell anyone else until we went to our first doctor's appt at 8 weeks- even then was only close friends. Came out to everyone else at 12 weeks!

You posted the same question pretty much exactly 2 years ago!

I'm 7 weeks 2 days and we haven't told anyone yet. Not sure when we're going to. Maybe 8 weeks to our parents, but I think I want to hold off even longer - as long as it doesn't become too obvious!

I have started to tell some people since I'm past 12 weeks. I had a miscarriage so I was afraid to tell too soon.

Re: When did you start telling people you were pregnant?

I'm 10w and so far only my parents and brother know. Due to past medical issues, I'm waiting as long as possible to pretty much tell everyone else (including my in-laws!!)
