My immediate family knows. They knew from the beginning because I am very close with them and tell them everything anyway. My closest friends know.

And of course, the wonderful women here! Chat Icon

I think because of our age everyone knows... I'm almost 35 and DH is 37. All of our friends and family have had kids for years.

DH's family asked what our plans were when we were engaged. I don't blame them because DH was married before and three years into the marriage his 37 year old ex-wife suddenly decided she's not sure if they should TTC because she's wasn't sure if she wanted to ever have children. DH was crushed as this was a complete 180. Trust me there were other "issues" as well.

Re: Who have you told that you are TTCing?

Uhhhh....everyone knows. My family, his family...friends, coworkers, clients...I was on bed rest for 2 weeks so I had to explain it. Then I missed so I had a D&C and had to explain that....beside I am 39 (Chat Icon ) so everyone knew we were planning to ttc anyway.

Even people who didn't know I was pg knew after I missed. I am an open book, incapable of keeping a secret of any kind....especially if I think it is something GOOD.

A couple work people know. Because I stupidly told them when they asked.

My sister knows and my parents know (accidentally - my mom overheard my massage therapist asking me questions about it.)

And all DH's camping buddies know, because he drove down from Lake George every other night when he was camping so we could BD.

Noone knows except for you guys. I don't plan on telling anyone until 3 months after I get the BFP(Chat Icon ). With DH being the first to know, you all are second to know. But if DH isnt home when i find out, you guys will know first cause Id have to get it out or else I'll be knocking on every door on Marcies street till i find her house so I could tell her since we live around the block from eachother Chat Icon

Besides you guys....I've only told my 2 best friends. My DH would kill me if he knew I told anyone. He's sooooo paranoid about being too pressured!

Re: Who have you told that you are TTCing?

Both sides of the family know we have to wait before TTC. Only my brother and sister will know (CJ's and our next child's godparents). One LIW friend and one LIF friend. I just don't want the monthly questions of "Are you PG?" DH and I have already let them know we will be trying, but they don't know I will be POAS, checking CM, temping and such to keep the questions at bay
