Because I've dealt with 3 miscarriage (one was my first pregnancy and the other two were in the past year), I don't plan on telling until I hear a heartbeat. I'd also like to wait until my first trimester is over, although I am already starting to show.

My plan for now is to announce September 1st.

What about you?

I've also had 3 miscarriages, but I've already told almost everyone! I'm showing a lot already, like I look 3-4 months pregnant or more so I can't really hide it...plus all of my symptoms. I'm just too excited to hold it in! I'm hoping for the best with this pregnancy! This would be my first little one!

Announcing this weekend at our daughters 1st bday party. We announced at 8 weeks with her, and I can't suck in my belly anymore. LOL

We've already told a lot of people but mostly family. Probably will wait at work until I start showing. I've had a loss too do it made me really hesitant to tell but my mom has a big mouth so we weren't able to keep the secret long.

Not until 16 weeks. I'm totally and completely showing by them, so I'll have to work hard to hide it. But I just don't want to listen to people ask me about my pregnancy for nine whole months. Plus no one cares about the third baby.

My mom and some people at work knew right away, but my siblings found out after we heard the heartbeat. Dh's family doesnt know yet, but if it was up to me his mo could find out after the baby is born. We'll let the Facebook world know when I'm 12 weeks.

August 14, if all is well on the ultrasound, we will announce. So I think I will be almost 9 weeks? My coworkers,parents, and a few select friends already know.

My parents already know-I had to tell them because we were seeing them and they would have figured it out when I walked in looking like I'm concealing a bowling ball.
The only people I have left to tell are my co-workers (although a few of them have figured it out) and the two cousins that I'm close to.
But we haven't told anyone on DH's side yet, his ex miscarried twice so he doesn't want to tell until he's sure it's solid. If all goes well at our first appt on the 15th, we'll make the calls that night.
If not, we're holding off until the heartbeat can be heard.

I told my mom on Wed and she broadcasted it to my cousins because she felt they could use some good news (we were sitting Shiva). I was so pissed! Hubby and I told his parents that night. Everyone else will find out at the end of the first trimester.

probably around the end of the first trimester, so the end of the month most likely

I'm REALLY trying to wait until the end of the mo because I'll be 13 weeks and I'll be confident then. Maybe I'll TRY to hold off till my next Midwife appt (the 27th)...but we've already told my mom, cousin, MIL and my Grammy. I'm pretty proud of not spilling to anyone else...I DO get some satisfaction from telling random waitresses because I don't know them and it makes me happy to spill to SOMEONE, LOL.

I can't wait to announce.
I told two close friends and my mom.
I think I will tell everyone else around 12 weeks.

I can't keep it a secret, so I told a long time ago, even on FB.

I'm going to tell everyone when the first trimester is over...which according to my ticker is the 23rd of August I believe.

You would think I would be used to telling people by now since this is my 4th, but I'm kind of scared haha.

I've had m/c's as well and we're waiting to tell everyone once we hear a heartbeat and get our u/s. Most likely we'll announce around 12 weeks We've only told my parents and my SIL. It's been SO hard keeping it a secret!

We've already told close family and friends, but I plan to wait until after my first appointment on Monday to start telling people. I'm going to try to wait until after my first trimester to announce on FB.

I've already told my mom and a few friends. Haven't told his parents or my dad yet. Once we tell our family towards the end of the first trimester then we'll tell everyone else.
