How many weeks were you when you told your parents?

Question

I’ve been thinking about it and I’m wondering when people told their family they were pregnant?

Answer

I told my mom the day the line turned solid pink and my in-laws at exactly 4 weeks.

Answer

First pregnancy I didn’t tell my parents right away because I felt influenced to wait until my first OBGYN appointment at 8 weeks. Which was hard, I see them almost every day. I ended up having a miscarriage at about 6 weeks and the hardest thing I ever had to do was tell them I WAS pregnant and lost it. I would have rather celebrated with them if only it was for a short time. 
My second pregnancy I told them right away, the same day I got my positive test. It was so wonderful to finally share that excitement.

Answer

I told my in laws the day after we found out and my own mother just a few days later. I read something online that made a lot of sense to me; if you would share the pain of loss with the person then it’s okay to tell them as early as you want.

Answer

7 weeks because morning sickness got the best of me and I felt like i couldn't hide it.

Answer

We were 6+2 (confirmed by a scan that day) when we told them :)

Answer

Told my mom at 11 weeks but we aren’t super close and she isn’t thrilled. So it was more of a formality than “sharing good news.”

Answer

With my first pregnancy we told my parents and my in laws at 8 weeks and told them we didn’t want to go public with it until I was 12 weeks and I told work. Well my father in law ended up telling everybody, even people we barely know. I still hold it against him. With my second pregnancy we told my parents days after we found out but didn’t tell my in laws until 12 weeks when we told everyone else.

Answer

I’m 4w1d today and I’m telling my parents on Friday and the in-laws on Saturday! I’m having a hard enough time waiting this long, my mom is my bestie— SO excited to tell her and my dad! I kind of figure too that if something awful does happen I’d rather us have some support than go through it alone 💙
