How Long Before You Told You Were Expecting?

[HeyImNewAtThis]

I'm only 7 weeks so I won't be officially announcing until at least after the first trimester but I wanted to know at what week did you feel comfortable sharing that you're expecting? ive told my husband of course lol and my mom knows.  I can't wait to share the news especially since this is our first but want to make sure the timing is right.

We waited till my first ultrasound I was 12wks. But I had problems, with misscarage,  with my other pregnancy.  So we wanted to make sure. Things were good with this pregnacy,  before we shared. Now am 29wks and feel so blessed. We can't wait to meet my baby girl♡

Im 10 weeks but having some problems with hcg levels.  Im praying everything will be ok for my baby, and once ultrasound confirms everything is good and hcg levels are good I plan on announcing it by taking pictures (pregnancy announcement) which ill most likely announce once im in the second trimester.  So far only husband and sister and parents know.

I told my immediately family at 5 weeks but did not make the "Big Announcement" until I was 13 weeks. I wanted to get out of the 1st trimester to ensure everything was okay.

This is my first pregnancy to we told our mums like as soon as we found out but didn't tell everyone until about 16weeks when we knew everything was ok and was past the first trimester :) Its such an exciting time and hard to not tell anyone.

I told close family at 5weeks  and every one else after my 12week scan

The first time we announced after the first sonogram- 9ish weeks, but since we lost the baby at 15 weeks- we've waited this time. I'm 19 now and planning on announcing after the sonogram next week.

Everyone in my life knows as if 13 weeks. I told my family at 9 weeks and my work yesterday at 13 weeks. Ive just been telling my friends as i see or talk to them :)

Recognize* ,not revenue!

I waited until.my first ultrasound so I was almost 7 weeks. I told my family and close friends. The way I looked at it is whether the babies lived or I miscarried they were still there and were little human beings that mattered. If something did happen to one or both I would want to mourn their loss with my family and friends and revenue that they were there.  That's just me though. Many women don't want to have to keep telling people over and over that they lost the babies so they don't choose to tell until after the 1st trimester. Congratulations!

I told right away with my son and with this one. I had 2 early miscarriages about 10 years ago and both of these pregnancies just felt different so I was comfortable sharing

I told ppl when I turned 13 weeks

[GeekMom1213]

I have lost two pregnancies on a row - one at 11 weeks and one at 12. We hadn't told "the world" yet in either case but had told more friends and family than we should have, and breaking the sad news was awful. So if we are lucky enough to conceive again it will be quite a while before we announce... I'd say four months probably, though immediate family will know earlier and close friends are likely to guess.

I was pretty excited when I found out at 4wks with my first two pregnancies. Never giving it a thought as to how long I should've waited( they say at 12wks is a good time), but not to be a Debbie downer by any means. My 2nd one only made it 7/8 wks. I felt so awful to have to go back and break the news. The bright side we had the support system to help us through it. Now this one being afraid of it possibly happening again I only told my SO, but slowly started saying some thing around 3/4 months only to my closest friends, and family. Then everyone else at 20/21wks with the ultrasound picture.

I waited till I was 15weeks and did it why my husband and I were on out honeymoon in Darwin Australia. But I did tell a few ppl the week we found out I was 5weeks due to the following week was our wedding so just my bridesmaids new

First waited 12 weeks second tried doing same but my Nony was so happy she told everyone. I let her too, she unfortunately passed in July. But everyone knew about 6-7 weeks second time around.
