We've only told close friends and family. I guess you may count the fact that my father has blabbed it to the whole world, but that wasn't our doing. Still haven't told work, though, and hoping to wait a couple more weeks.

We have told a lot of people but there are some family that doesn't know; like my Mom and step dad which I don't plan to tell, because I am not talking to my Mom and she would be negative about it anyway. My DH's step dad also does not know yet because DH didn't have a job when we found out and he would have have complained about that...but now that DH recently got a job we will probably tell him soon. We also have to tell my two older kids our DD knows because we couldn't resist telling her because she wants a baby brother or sister and she is almost 4 and we can just deny if she says anything  she also won't understand if something were to go wrong like my boys would so we will tell them at 12 wks.

We have told close friends and family. Some people at my work know, but not everyone. I have my 12 week check up today, so after that I might tell more people and DH may make the facebook announcement (I don't have facebook anymore).
I am most likely to let non-close people just figure it out rather than telling, but we'll see.

The entire planet might know at this point. Ben was completely incapable of keeping his mouth shut. I think him being excited is kind of adorable, though, so I'm mostly over it.

The only ones that know (besides JM) are my parents, my 2 best friends and DH's boss. We're waiting to get closer to the 2nd trimester before we announce it to the whole world.

Only a few people know here too. The ILs want us to wait on tell the SILs until we come there (over 1000 miles away) for a trip in August. I do not think it is possible to keep it off of FB until then and hide it from everyone. I am already getting looks from family I saw last week and people at church. It is like they know based on looking at my belly but are not sure and do not know if they should say anything.

Just a few in my world too. My Mom, my BFF, my sister, my Mom's BFF and we finally told our kids on Saturday.....They are over the MOON! Even my 12 year old son is excited, but my daughter is absolutely ECSTATIC!!!
On July 12th I will be 12 weeks, and I have a feeling my BFF is going to out me on Facebook that day...LOL. She's on pins and needles!
We are nervous about telling family for various reasons. My brother just recently lost a baby to Triploidy 69, a very rare chromosomal disorder, incompatible with life, at around 20 weeks. It's SO awful and I have a real sense of fear about telling him, because I'm so afraid of hurting them! 
Other family, I'm scared to tell because this pregnancy was such a surprise. It's no secret that I've always wanted one more. It's also no secret that my husband was done....so naturally, I fear that his family will assume that I did this on purpose, and blame me for it. I know everyone will be happy after the initial shock. I think maybe I should let my Husband tell them, so I don't have to deal with it!

I totally blabbed around seven weeks (after we saw the heartbeat) and actually I was shocked to have gone that long without telling.

We haven't told quite everyone yet (ie the neighbors etc) but most of our good friends, all of our family, etc. know. And the few people who don't know, will probably know soon enough because DS likes to tell everyone!
