When did you tell?

I was just wondering when everyone told their families and friends they were pregnant? How soon did you spread the good news?

Re: When did you tell?

We told our parents and siblings a few days after getting our BFP - then we told our aunts, uncles, cousins after we saw the heartbeat. Everyone else - found out at 12 - 13 weeks....

Re: When did you tell?

We told our parents and some close friends right away, but we wanted to wait until 12 weeks to tell other family members. My MIL blabbed our news right away, but my parents kept it quiet until 12 weeks.

Re: When did you tell?

I told my family at about 5 weeks. We wanted to tell everyone together so we waited for Christmas Eve.

Close friends I told right away, since they wanted to know why I wasn't drinking at my wedding (New Year's Eve).

Co-worker friends I told at 12 wks.

We wanted to wait until 12 weeks, but I figure we're close enough Chat Icon

Re: When did you tell?

Before I had my m/c...we told that same day I found out.
After that, we waited the 3 months. It was so hard keeping in that we were expecting twins for that long.

Re: When did you tell?

I told my mom over the phone the night I tested (after DH confirmed that he saw what I saw). When AF was late I told my mom and so she knew I was suspicious. She told my dad while we were on the phone. I told my riding instructor the next day so she would know if I behaved strangely or suddenly didn't want to do certain things. We told my IL's when we went to Poland a few weeks after BFP and then we shared with the rest of the friend and family and 11 weeks.
