At first I was extremely set on waiting until 12 weeks. But then I had to tell my boss & coworkers around 6 weeks as I was so sick, and we ended up letting my MIL announce the news at a party they had when I was 8 weeks. I really went back and forth on whether or not to let her say anything at the party, but it was all close family friends and/or family, and I figured what the heck. If something were to happen, we would have the support of the group, and that could be very worth it.

All said and done, I'm very happy that we got the news out early. 1) it's a huge relief not having to keep it secret, and 2) it's nice being able to share our excitement with everyone.

It is a very personal decision of course, but if you really want to break the news, I wish you the best of luck getting the OK from your hubby!

He says if its what I want then we can start telling ppl so my mum is coming round sunday cant wait to tell her, gona make sure all my family know b4 telling friends tho x

I'm like Shauna, couldn't keep it quiet! Speak to your hubby about it... 1 thing i would say is make sure if u dont want everybodyy knowing is chose which friends to tell carefully!

I told family and close friends and asked them to keep it quiet but this weekend we went to stay with OH cousin, went for a meal and had lots of people coming along saying congratulations. When i asked they had all found out from facebook!!! Me and OH don't have facebook! I know who the 'close friend' is that let it 'slip' now... Peeeeeeed off was/ is an understatment!! xxx

 

[xshauna_bazx]

Cool Least i will be out in the open soon eh xxx

 

[heidi-hi]

Ooops i must have been daydreaming coz i missed your post after u spoke to hubby! Will be a big relief once its out! xxx

 

[leibiloo87]

oh no dreaded facebook lol the stuff ppl put on there I really do not want my pregnancy announced on there for a very long time and I want it to be me who does the announcing luckily I know I can really trust my 3 best friends and they will be the only friends ill be telling at the mo but gona deffinately start telling family this week x

 

[Suzie86]

We're trying to wait until christmas day because it'll be a nice surprise, but by then I'll be 17 weeks, don't know if i can wait that long or whether it'll be obvious by then. It's so hard not telling people!

 

[leibiloo87]

Gosh 17 weeks im only just 9 weeks and my belly is much bigger but it is my 3rd and apparently you show much earlier with 3rd and im normally a size 6 so its realy noticable when I put a little weight on dont think I could keep it under wrops that long allthough its winter so much easier to hide. Got some really bad news yestarday though my nana has cancer and we find out today how far its spread and how long she has left shes very ill so the thought of telling my family now is out of the question as its more heartbreak to add to it knowing shes more than likely not going to be here for when this baby is born and shes like a second mum to me so not coping very well at the moment bk to the hospital soon to find out test results bad news either way but least we will no what we r dealing with my mum n auntie are falling apart iv allways been the strong one that sorts everything out but knowing im pregnant and she going to die is soooo sooooo hard hope I can keep it together x

Hey everyone.. Nice to read the threads.

Im due on July, 4th.

Its my second pregnancy and i feel scared of giving birth already. Took me 14 long hours with my son. He is 4.


Does anyone have cravings? I feel like pickled onions and then sometimes chocolate.

I was very sick during weeks 6-7 and 8 but am much better now.

 

[PinkHank]

I know what you mean.. I am only 6 weeks and we have only told our close family and our best friend. I am bursting to tell people too, but not sure whether to or wait until the first scan. I did mention this to my Dr today and she said, that I should tell people when ever I feel happy too.
I know people like to wait until they've had their first scan, to know that everythings okay. But, she said I could have my first scan and then a problem develop later on. I know its abit sad and nasty to say but I guess its true.
Still hasn't helped me make up my mind up about telling people though.

Congrats Leibiloo - I only told those that I would have told anyway if anything went wrong before 14 weeks , only as I had a MMC earlier in year - just in case. Somwtimes tho it's nice to have someone you can tell and talk to about it, that's why PF is sooo good!

Really sorry about your Nana, hope she is doing ok, maybee your lovely news in a few weeks, would be just what the doctor ordered and really help give her reason to fight it and see baby X
