Do people NEED to know?

Question

I'm really starting to get annoyed with people saying
"Will u let us know when ur in labour?"

Do these people really need to know??

Surely we don't need to say anything till baby is born?

37w4d and getting increasingly hormonal & grumpy so I may be wrong here, but urghh it's annoying me!

Answer

I made a list of ppl I wanted to know and gave it to my parents and in-laws ahead of time and had them call the ppl on the respective sides of the family, so I wouldn't have to worry about it. then I posted on Facebook for everyone else when she was born. then I sent out birth announcements later on.

Answer

I won't be telling any of my family until after the baby is born

Answer

Do it your way. If you're a private couple normally, people will understand. If you normally tell everyone everything, well too bad if they don't understand, it's still your choice

Answer

They are likely just excited for you. I've asked friends that, but never expected them to. More than happy to hear afterwards :)

Answer

I'm not telling anybody but maybe my parents. I don't need extra pressure

Answer

Just tell the people YOU want to tell. It's a scary time. Best of luck xoxo

Answer

I asked my friend to just shoot me a text and let me know if she remembers. Not that I wanted to be there but I wanted to know so I could get updates from her husband and just know she was okay. I don't see anything wrong with it. I also don't think you need to be telling everybody. But the people you're close to want to know and I think that's okay.

Answer

If I can avoid it, I won't be telling anyone but my SO. Unless he's at work or something and I desperately need a ride to the hospital, I'll call an ambulance. I do not need the stress of my family/others on me 😎

Answer

Husband will be letting parents and best friends know as they will pray but not interfere.

Answer

Depends who it is
