I am pregnant for the 2nd time my first time I had a missed miscarriage I found out at 12 weeks that I miscarried at 9 weeks. I found out when I went to see my specialist due to me being high risk because I'm diabetic. but a week earlier I saw my regular doctor and she said my chances dropped so much and I really didn't have to worry anymore so I announced to mine and my husbands whole family and we had told everyone and the next day found out i miscarried. so with all that being said I would wait til u have an ultrasound just to be sure baby is ok. it is so hard to wait but it's even harder to have to relive being told u lost it a million times because u have to tell everyone and them bringing it up (with good intentions) every time they see u
First day of the second trimester! Couldn't wait any longer!
I announced at 13-14 weeks I can't remember . But if you wish you can join my mother group on Facebook, it's a small group ran by myself and a couple friends :) you can let it out there!! It's called
A Mother's Safe Place
Just like that !
I have had 3 miscarriages in the past and I've always been cautious about telling people, but this pregnancy I told my closest friends and mum as soon as I found out. You should celebrate your joy with those that you love. Having miscarried before I can say that it is not something that I'd want to do alone (and I did do it alone once), the love and support of my husband and friends is what helped me through such difficult times. I would whole heatedly suggest sharing your beautiful news with your closest and most supportive friends or family, those who share in your good times and lift you up in your bad times xx best wishes xx
I am 31 weeks and 6 days with a girl. And I announced it right after we took the pregnancy test at home. I had then called an obgyn to get an ultrasound and see how far along I was. I measured 16 weeks at the ultrasound. I had no idea I was even pregnant and I was already far enough along to tell everyone. I was stunned because I was using birth control. Well anyways you can tell anyone when you are ready and I would do it after you are in your 2nd trimester because the 1st is not the best to tell someone because you don't know exactly what can happen in those first 3 months of pregnancy. I am now in the 3rd trimester and I am ready to meet my baby already congratulations and good luck with your pregnancy every women and pregnancy is different!
Very true, unfortunately, that you can never predict anything, no matter how many weeks along. I just finished at my OB, got an ultrasound, measuring 13 weeks and everything looks good. We're going to announce today :-)
Regardless if you announce or not you are never 100 percent certain about anything. So it's your decision and God willing everything goes well. We can't control anything. My job knew at 5 weeks I was pregnant.
With my first I didn't wait we announced right away. This time around I found out January 4th and didn't tell anyone except my SO until March. We waited because we were trying to get finances together along with the fact that our first born was only 5 month old. Now I'm 35 weeks and happy everyone knows and am excited to say I only have four weeks until I get to hold my new bundle of joy.
Why don't u go early... For ultrasound..?
Ask ur doctor ... Don't wait for so long. It's not so proper proper to ve it on exact date.. Which doctor is telling u. If ur r not feeling well or ur always worried about it ... Go early . U can go to hospital they Gona do everything on one day along with results.. Though long hours wait... But atleast u ve peace of mind..
Thank you so much everyone! I have an OB appt tomorrow and will get an US. Assuming everything goes well I think we'll go for it. We've told our parents, siblings, and select very close friends who would support us in any outcome. The wait is the worst and my anxiety is through the roof. Thanks for answering! (I'm due Feb 19th!)
I think when you feel most comfortable, announce. I told everyone at 4weeks. I was way too excited.
I told my dad at about 8 weeks as I would tell him if something went bad anyway. As last time he helped me so much when I miscarried then I told the rest of my family after I had second scan at 13 weeks. Still haven't told all my friends or the more distanced members of my family. And I am 19.5 weeks so they can see but no one asks lol.
I waiting until I got my ultrasound and check up I was 15weeks it took so long because I had to wait for my doctor get me an appointment to the obgyn.
Just try to relax and stay positive ! You should just wait for your ultrasound 1st before announcing though I know it's hard to wait but a week will go by quick :)
By the way when your due date just wondering cuz I'll be 12 weeks tomorrow too lol
