Question

My fiance and his friends believe i wont be able to hide my pregnacy for too much longer (i look like i was 24-25 weeks preg with my first and im only 7 weeks 6 day plus i have terrible morning sickness) i agree with them but im only concerned about telling people that matter to know as of right now. I already had an ultrasound showing strong heart and healthy baby.

Answer

I was 10 weeks and already wearing maternity pants every thing was ok so I told all my family. The next scan I got showed a missed misscarriage. I was devestated and had to share my misscarriage with way too many people. I promise im not trying to scare you. I am 6 weeks and have told my husband, mom, and best friend but that is all until I am 12 weeks.

Answer

Everyone handles it differently so it's completely up to you.
The first time I got pregnant we were so excited and told our immediate family right away (it was near Christmas), but we lost it a week later. We then ended up telling our close friends what happened because our sadness was something we couldn't just hide, and I ended up being so thankful for everyone's support. Now we tell our best friends and immediate family every time, unfortunately we have had 2 more losses. I'm now on my 4th pregnancy and have made it farther than ever before and those same people have been there to celebrate the little victories with, and will be there if we do end up needing support. We won't tell extended family, larger friend groups, or social media until the second trimester.
It all comes down to everyone you tell you are pregnant, be prepared to tell them if something goes wrong. That's easier for some people than others.

Answer

Its really up to you. Ive seen many that hid it for the entire pregnancy. Many people were surprised to see then with a baby in their hands.

Answer

My third pregnancy (first two resulted in angel babies) I didn’t tell hardly anyone until 14 weeks. A lot of people just thought I was getting fat 😂 but it was easier to conceal because it was winter. Now that it’s spring it’s harder to conceal.

Answer

There’s this common mentality that we can’t share before 12 weeks bc of the risk of miscarriage. I personally think you share whenever you feel comfortable sharing! It’s never too early or too late to celebrate in my opinion. 
Trigger* i hid my first pregnancy until i was 12 weeks and in the “safe” zone and then had a miscarriage at 12 weeks 1 day. It was worse for me to tell my close friends, oh hey, i was pregnant, i lost the baby. I felt like they couldn’t sympathize (as much) because they were so shocked i was pregnant in the first place.
