Re: When did you tell....
Posted by hmm8191
thank you so much for sharing this. And I am so sorry for your loss. This is a whole other side to it that I didn't think about. 
THanks for this. I'm happy to share if it helps...
I also wanted to add - I'm still not an advocate of telling everyone we know. I'm actually glad I didn't mention anything at work because it would've tipped my hand a bit as far as what I have planned for the (hopefully) future. But I now feel differently about telling close family and friends. Those that do know have been an invaluable support system and I probably couldn't have gotten through this without them.
Good luck to you.

Re: When did you tell....
extended family? (we've already told our parents and siblings)
We live OOS and didn't want to tell people before our parents. We came to LI at 11 weeks and told my parents and siblings then.
friends?
My BF at 7 or 8 weeks, some at 11 weeks, others from 12 - 15 weeks.
boss/co-workers?
My boss lives in NY, she visited me when I was just about 12 weeks so I told her then so I could do it in person but asked her not to tell anyone else. Other coworkers at 14 weeks.
We had a MC the first time we were pregnant. Nobody knew we were pregnant though. I was very glad to not have people asking me about my pregnancy when I was no longer pregnant. I was also glad that I could tell who I wanted to in my own time and not be rushed because they thought I was pregnant. Going through that made us realize that we wanted to wait for a while this time.

Re: When did you tell....
Thank you all so much for sharing your stories with me. I'm still as confused as before but at least I've been able to get DH to agree that we need to discuss this!
You all ROCK!!

Re: When did you tell....
This time is was all backwards. My boss was one of the 1st ones to know because I went on a business trip and I got so sick and I wasn't good at entertaining the clients (aka drinking with them) so he was like do you have something to tell me. Sorry I just had to share! LOL
Everyone else I told recently at 8 weeks.
