When did you/will you tell your closest friends and family?

Question

I am so excited and terrified with my rainbow baby. I told my family at about 5 weeks with my first pregnancy (I had missed miscarriage at 12 week scan). 
I was just wondering when other people announced or are planning to announce their rainbow babies?

Answer

I'm 34 weeks and only our parents, siblings and people that see me regularly know I'm pregnant. Everyone else will find out when we post a birth announcement.

Answer

I’m having to wait until I’m 15 weeks. My mom lives out of state and I won’t be able to go see her until I’m 15 weeks. It’s SO hard cause I talk to her daily!!! Haha. But I want to tell her in person

Answer

I told my parents as soon as I found out (6w 5d). Went in for a UTI & walked out with a UTI AND a positive pregnancy test! The first person who knew was my best friend at the time but only because she was with me. Didn't tell SOs family until almost 15 weeks! 😮

Answer

i didn't shout it to the world but I didn't hide it either. when I had my miscarriage I hadn't told anyone and I felt so alone. So I was paranoid that if it happened again I didn't want a repeat of that feeling.

Answer

We told our moms right away, everyone else we waited until 17 weeks which was also Christmas.

Answer

I told my mom after my 7week scan because I needed someone to talk to but I was really cautious because I had literally just went through my third miscarriage a month prior. We waited to tell everyone else at 12 weeks. Granted we would have told my husbands parents sooner but we wanted to tell them in person

Answer

We told everyone right away twice and ended up having miscarriages with both. So with our last one we waited a long time before we told anyone we were well out of the first trimester but before the 20 week mark

Answer

Very soon after my BFP. I couldn't hide the fact that I was puking 10-12 times a day.
