Probably mine. It depends on who answers the phone first and his parents are impossible to get in contact with.

I ended up calling my mom first because I was scared. ONLY because DH lost his job the day before.....

My parents will find out first because my mom has been so supportive throughout this whole thing... she'd be the first person I'd want to tell.

It depends who's package/gift/card get to their house first! I have a card with a poem inside for my MIL and for my mom I am going to send a picture frame with 3 openings each with a picture of the kids and the 3rd will have a paper inside that says coming soon with the due date on it. I haven't decided what I am going to send to my dad and step mom but I was thinking of doing something with snapfish or make a cute little DVD of the kids and saying something at the end about a new grandchild.

Probably DH's parents. We see them a lot more than we see my Dad.

His mom lives right around the corner and is always here so she will know first.
I also have to wait for my parents to wake up since there is a time difference between Australia and here.

To answer my own question. My dad will be the first parent I tell. My mom, who knows. His mom will probably be last to know. Or I may just send them all a pregnancy announcement. I don't know.

My mom will be the first to know. I have made it very clear to DH that when we begin TTC, his mother is not to know anything about it and that when we get pregnant again, we are not going to tell her until we have seen/heard a HB. She has this idea that it is her business to spread other people's news around, even if they have asked her not to, so once I am ready for the world to know, she will know.

His. My Dad died a few years ago, and my mom and I aren't that close. She lives over 1000 miles away anyway, so I will probably just wait until after the end of the first trimester to tell her. DH's parents will know mush earlier.

Jason's stepdad will find out first because Jason is a blabbermouth and calls all his family before I can call my mom

Mine, I imagine will hear first, only because I broke down and told my mom we were trying again... Most of the family assumes we were holding off after the last miscarriage and the deployment. His will be close after though. I just can't wait to actually be so we are able to tell people!!
