I just want to shout it to the world but I also want to wait having had miscarriage before. When did you start telling people you were pregnant? Or when do you plan too?

Question

This is so hard for me I just want to tell everyone and anyone but I know I shouldn't until I'm more confident in the pregnancy! So I'm posting here!

Answer

We told parents and siblings right away and everyone else I’ll decide day-by-day 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Answer

When I send them to college lol.
I announced early and then miscarried (I had hyperemesis and basically disappeared from life, so I felt I had to explain why). This time I might wait until I’m showing, just to post the cute bump picture. But who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️ 
Honestly, announce whenever you feel comfortable! Miscarriage is so taboo and pushed into the dark, and if women didn’t have that 3 month rule I think we wouldn’t feel as alone when it happened. But that’s just my opinion!

Answer

I found out last Saturday.... I told my husband Sunday morning .... we told my parents and my brother/his gf Sunday afternoon... and we are telling his parents and sister weds... we’ve also already told our closest friends.
I don’t feel the need to wait... we are excited and want to share the news with the people who matter the most to us.

Answer

With our first baby we told our immediate family/close friends right away. This time we want to wait a little longer just because it’s more peaceful to not have people jumping down our throats about it 😊 my husband told his best friend, and I haven’t told anyone. We don’t live near family so it’s easier to keep it secret for now! Not sure when we’ll tell everyone :)

Answer

I tell my sister as soon as I see a positive pregnancy test 😂 I’m probably going to tell my parents next week (I’ll be 5 weeks). For my last pregnancy I announced publicly at 12 weeks but this time I’m going to wait until I know the gender around 13/14 weeks.

Answer

I’m telling our folks this week! My little girl had a shirt that says promoted to big sister! We’re going there for supper and she’s gonna sport the news! 🤗 we can’t keep secrets for nothing 😂🙈

Answer

With my last pregnancy we told people early as I was meant to have a hip operation but it got cancelled due to baby unfortunately that pregnancy ended in a miscarriage end of November 2019. This time round  we have only told 3 people 2 best friends and my dad. It was hard enough last explaining to people what had happened so we are waiting till at least 12 weeks or until I cant hide it anymore x

Answer

We have told my mum, my brother and his girlfriend and only one of my friends that has had miscarriages before, just like me. I figure if something does happen, We will need the support. I don’t want the whole world to know because then you need to tell everyone over and over and it hurts! Just tell people as you are happy to!

Answer

Told a few right away that I knew would be supportive, trustworthy, and there for me if I did miscarry. Telling family after first appt, then social media can wait until I want to announce! My last pregnancy I had to go ahead and do so because a former coworker decided to announce the news to a whole department before I had even told my family & most were friends on FB 🤦‍♀️.

Answer

Told my husband same day. We told our parents around week 7 with our first due to deployment and will tell around the same time as we have one set visiting us then and they’ll be suspicious if I don’t drink wine if we go to dinner. We also told grandparents, sibs etc, but really no one else until about 13 weeks. With this one a few more people know early since we see them often enough it’d be hard to hide (and two other of the couples are TTC too)
