When did you announce your pregnancy?

Question

I found out I’m pregnant a few days ago. I’m so happy because I had a miscarriage last year. I was scared to TTC again, but I got pregnant after 3 months of trying. I’m so happy that I want to tell people but I’m terrified if I do, I’ll miscarry and total jinx myself. My beta hcg yesterday was 690.5 (at 4w2d, 16dpo) and my miscarriage last year it was like 50 very low. I saw some medical studies online about prediction of viable pregnancy and hcg and my levels look good but I’m still so scared. And I don’t go back to get levels checked again for 3 more days!!

Hello Hun. 
First things first it's entirely up to you, announce it when you feel comfortable whether that's now or never, it's your decision. Don't feel like you have to announce if you don't want to but don't feel that if you tell people it'll jinx it, you're aloud to be happy about it but I can understand your reservations.
I am currently 12 weeks today, at 10 weeks we found out we were having twins!! we've told our family and close friends, we told family from the beginning and friends from about 10 weeks. The reason I told family is because I have a two year old and my partner works full time, I don't want to drag my two year old to every appointment and ultrasound because it's not fair on him and because I'm having twins there's A LOT of appointments & scans lol. So it's helpful family knowing so I've got a helping hand whenever I need one for care and stuff! Also when I didn't tell anyone when I was pregnant with my son my family thought something was really wrong with me & that I was dying lol (oh the joys of morning sickness) - so people knowing earlier this time ive just been able to relax and be pregnant lol without the stresses of hiding it till we announce & it's been really nice. I also like the support that comes with my family knowing and I don't like to say or think this way but if something was to happen it's calming to me knowing that I would have a world of support around me. 
Apart from the family and close friends we've told we aren't fussed about announcing it to the rest of the world though! 
Congratulations on your rainbow baby and I wish you all of the best! 🌈☺️✨

Answer

We told people in groups.
 First our parents and our very best friends the day we found out. If I had miscarried I would have told my mom and two best friends anyways because their my support system and I dont keep secrets from them.  After our 1st ultrasound where we saw baby and his insanely strong heart beat which drops your chances of miscarriage considerably we told our siblings, then extended family and close friends. After the 12 week scan and again hearing his strong heart beat we announced on fb.  I basically weighed the chance of miscarriage against how comfortable I was telling that person I miscarried.
