How are people telling parents?

Question

My husband is trying the ‘your parents found out about the engagement first so I think we should tell mine about the baby first’ 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I sent out cards with our announcement picture in it. For us, it just depended who opened their mail first. 🤷🏻‍♀️ we live 15 hours away and I didn’t want to FaceTime or anything. Cards were easier for us.

Answer

We’re telling my mom first 🤷🏼‍♀️ probably his dad next, then my dad, and his mom will probably find out from other people. We have a better relationship with my mom than anyone else. Plus she’ll always make time to see us, and we have to reach out and struggle to figure out a time to see everyone else.

Answer

We are telling both our parents on Easter. Which set gets told first will depend on everyone’s schedules. If my parents schedule their Easter Egg Hunt earlier then they’ll get told first, and if his parents schedule theirs earlier they’ll get told first.

Answer

This is a very good question 🤔🤔🤔
I don’t remember who I told first with my first pregnancy but I am definitely doing it different the next time we get pregnant. 
Probably send a cute video to everyone simultaneously.

Answer

We only told his parents first because they were in town (from across the country) visiting us the week before we planned to tell parents

Answer

We told my mom first only because we dont talk to his parents much since they play favoritism and only want anything to do with the granddaughters. They have only seen my son maybe 10 times in almost 3 years and they live 5 minutes from us. My husband seen his mother this weekend and she asked how i was doing but didnt say anything about our son.

Answer

tell them together and avoid any issues
