When did u show/ announce?

Question

Just found out I'm pregnant 5 weeks exactly today . This is my first pregnancy and small to start 5'7 128lbs .. I don't want to announce my pregnancy until 14 weeks to make it past the high risk 1st trimester.. I know everyone's different but was anyone able to keep it hidden this long? Luckily it's winter at that time so big cozy sweaters will be utilized :)

Answer

We told everyone when we found out. I was 5 weeks. Why not? If we lost the baby, people would understand and be supportive and prayerful. And you wouldn't have to explain sadness, etc.   And if the baby sticks, people can be praying for a healthy baby that way too.

Answer

I found out with my first at 4w6d and announced 3 days later. This time, I found out at 3w4d and announced 3 days later. I can't keep it a secret lol. I get too excited! Besides, if something were to happen, I would have an overwhelming support group.

Answer

I've told more people than I planned to so far. I'm 8 weeks and have told two cousins and my brother. One of my cousins found my cloth diapers and I couldn't lie, another cousin is my best friend, and I just felt like my brother needed to know. My best fiend who lives very far away also knows. My husband hasn't told a soul. He's so good! But I'm a terrible liar, so when someone asks or brings it up I can't help but tell them. Our plans are to tell everyone on thanksgiving. I'll be 12 weeks then, and we will have hopefully had a scan or at least heard the heartbeat.  It's also my mother in laws birthday on thanksgiving, so she will be extra excited this year.  I haven't started showing at all, don't really even see anything as far as bloat goes. I'm hoping that thanksgiving I have a little bloat or something, but by Christmas maybe :)

Answer

I'm 26 weeks and can still hide my tiny bump very easily, I've only gained 8 pounds so don't really look pregnant. I'm sure u'll be fine keeping it a secret till week 14, I did :)

Answer

I have told everyone in my family / partners family . I told them at 16 weeks . But as for social networks or friends besides my best friend . No don't just go around telling people I'm 6months and showing so it's pretty obvious but I don't tell anybody else lol

Answer

Answer

Im 5w3d and waiting until after my dr apt on 11/3 to tell everyone. I'm having a family dinner tomorrow night. I need a good excuse for not drinking (sadly not drinking is not normal in my family)

Answer

Thanks everyone for all the comments and advice! It's nice to get so many point of views.. We will see how long I can hold out :)

Answer

If you don't wear snug dress or tight clothes you should be able to cover your belly until 16/17/18 week. After that it's realy tricky.... But not impossible.
