Announcing your pregnancy too soon?

How long did you wait to tell your immediate family that you were expecting. I will be 7 weeks on NYE and will not see a dr until 8 weeks. Is that too soon to tell my immediate family as in my parents and siblings?

@price family, sorry to hear that. Have you had problems in the past with miscarriages? I haven't had a child in 10 yrs so I don't really know what kind of problems I could have had, if I had been trying.i got pregnant 1st cycle after  iud removal.

I only want to tell our mothers and would tell them sooner than 7 wks  if time were to permit for them to be at the same place at the same time.

I told my mom 30 minutes after I took my pregnancy test, and she told everyone else for me. (I was 5 weeks at the time) It's whatever you're comfortable with doing. Some wait till after the first trimester when risk of miscarriage is lower, and others don't.
