When to tell

We told our parents and close family (brothers and sisters) at 6 weeks then told other people at around 10 weeks - but it was hard keeping it a secret! People at work kind of worked it out anyway cos I was looking a bit

Personally I don't see the need to not tell people. My theory is, if something happens and you lose the baby surely you want people to understand why you are so sad. And people close to you would perhaps feel left out if they didn't know?

Just my opinion

Im a bit undecided about this too. So far we have only told one friend each (and i only told my friend cos she found out on the same day that she was pregnant also)
I think we may wait til the first scan at 7weeks, i sort of don't want to jinx it IYKWIM.

Last time we told family as soon as we found out and DH's dad was so excited he called all his friends. It was hard to have to tell everyone when we lost the baby.

I really want to tell my mum and dad as they were massive supports last time but Mum finds it hard to keep a secret and i know she would tell everyone.

DH really doesnt want to tell anyone until we find out everything is all good.

We told my parents at 5 weeks as it was mums birthday and that was a cool prezzie. Then everyone else at about 8 weeks.

We were over the moon and told family and friends at 6 weeks when we found out. Hard to keep such good news a secret

we waited until the second trimester to tell anyone which was so hard but I held off as we had lost one before and I was so scared. but it was worth it to finally let the cat out of the bag and relax a bit.

Its totally a personal choice. My first pregnancy we told all our family and some of our close friends. Then I MCed and had to tell everyone which was extremely hard. Having said that, it was also nice to have their support.

This pregnancy, we've only told family and 2 of my closests friends and everyone else is waiting until the 12 week mark. Although, almost everyone at work knows now as I had issues with bleeding a few weeks ago at work and once one person knows the whole office knows!!

We told DF's parents straight away (so 4w), and told some of our friends after my bloods came back normal. We will tell my parents after my scan in 2 weeks.

We told everyone straight away so that if necessary, the support is there if we need it. After 3 m/c, I would rather have them know and understand why I may be feeling somewhat unsociable or whatever, and be there for support if necessary.
