first trimester

[MrsHurley21]

Is anyone sees waiting until after the first trimester to share the news with friends and family? I've told my bd rents and sister and one friend but haven't told anyone else and I'm 9+3

Wait. The devastation hurts everyone post loss. I have lost six and did not wait to share and regretted it. This time I'm already showing at 5+4 and I can't keep it to myself so I've been hiding at home. Given how my family has been affected I would wait. If you can't wait,  keep it small like a friend who has been there and maybe parents. To each his own though, good luck!

We lost two pregnancies early this year. We waited until 14 weeks to tell everyone except our parents and a few close friends. I'm glad we did. I'm 20 weeks now.

Thanks :) well I haven't had any spotting or cramping and my baby had a healthy heart beat and everything seemed great at my first appointment at 8 +6 but my next appointment isn't until 13 weeks so I'm hoping the baby stays healthy I'm putting off any strenuous activities and exercises until next visit then I hope to be able to exercise a little maybe some walking and squats

With my first I told every one at like 5 weeks. Luckily she was deliveried healthy and happy. My second pregnancy, I did the same and shared the news right away. Unfortunately it was a tubal pregnancy and I had to tell everyone I'd miscarried :( my 3rd pregnancy I planned on waiting until after 13 weeks but it ended at 10 week's with a blighted ovum and I miscarried. My 4th was a happy, healthy baby girl but I didn't tell anyone until around 13 weeks due to the past miscarriages. I didn't want to tell them and then have to say I lost it again so I waited until after the riskiest period. Now I'm 31+1 with my 5th pregnancy which is also a little girl and I didn't tell anyone until about 18 weeks because from week 7-16 I was bleeding (subchorionic hemorrhage) and wasn't sure how the pregnancy was going to progress. So it's really up to you and depends on the pregnancy. I personally would wait until at least after week 13 when you enter the 2nd trimester. Good luck!

[Mommy2awesomekids]

I'm also waiting til after 12 weeks and its very hard not to tell but its worth waiting. Congrats BTW I'm 8+1

[MrsHurley21]

Eh I'm not too worried about that I just don't want everyone in my family know because I really don't want the stress of anyone's disapproval so early on because I already feel like I am walking on eggshells until the second trimester so that I'm more in the clear for miscarriages

It's up to you though if you want to spread the news early. Cause if you wait til you're further along they may play the card where they say "well, why didn't you tell us"

[MrsHurley21]

Well I haven't even told my parents yet because then everyone will know but it's hard to keep the secret lol

[Ari_121514]

I would wait until the second trimester. Anything can still happen during the first trimester. The only people that knew and wouldn't tell anyone else was my parents and my fiance. Congratulations!  ♡
