Pregnancy announcements

i’m 4 weeks & i told them yesterday o couldn’t hold it in

I’m telling my close circle because if something went wrong, I’d tell them anyway. That’s just the kind of person i am! My overall rule is: if i don’t care if they know about the bad, then im ok with telling them early. If i wouldn’t share the bad with them, then i will wait until 12+ weeks.

I’m almost 5 weeks and so far only my fiancé, best friend, my mom and sister (they had dreams I was pregnant and asked me I couldn’t keep a straight face lol) and my fiancés two cousins know. We don’t plan on announcing until probably 15 weeks when we can get a gender ultrasound done. It is so hard to hold in we’ve contemplated telling everyone after the first ultrasound so we can do a gender reveal with diapers for girl and wipes for boy just because of it’s a boy we will not have a baby shower (we have all of our son old clothes still).

@Raydeli right, that’s how I feel, I’m like I don’t think I can make it to the first ultrasound, I didn’t even go to my first appointment yet until Wednesday 😂😂 it’s hard

@Samantha I’m trying to wait to my first ultrasound but I have to schedule it first. It probably wouldn’t be until 7-8 weeks so it’s hard to wait haha

@Hanna that’s very true, I think I only waited until 8 weeks last time to tell anyone! The first ultrasound

@Samantha thank you! Yeah I told my dad ,& brother but I want to tell my husbands family ,& rest of my family so bad, lol.

@Miranda I feel you on that, I just hate walking around feeling like i can’t tell my secret, hahaha. I don’t know if I’d make it to 15 weeks, I think I’m going to do it in a few weeks, or maybe first ultrasound. We usually do a separate thing for the general reveal , which is fun.

I'm 5 weeks and have told close friends but am waiting to tell my parents in person which will be around 12 weeks--it's so hard to keep it from them!!

I’m 6 weeks pregnant 🤰🏻 I couldn’t hold it in and so as my husband we told everybody . I’m thinking about in two months from now do a social media picture my daughter is going to be a big sister announcement 📢

With my first pregnancy I posted it when I was 6 weeks to later lose the baby so this time I’m going to wait till about 20 weeks to be safe. My mom & best friend knows and my boyfriend told his sister and brother. But you should do whatever feels right for u 🩷

@Yavi aww yesss, that’s how I want to do it for my son, in an outfit that says big bro 😍 haha

I dnt plan on telling til im in the hospital having my baby 😂

@Shanice Jackson literally how I feel but I’m counting on those baby shower gifts 🥲🤣

@Shanice Jackson couldn’t do that 😂

@Gabriella I have my reasons 😂😂 my family is very judgmental

@abby oh I’m going to get my gifts lol

@Shanice Jackson yeah, that’s probably hard too! I’m just bad at secrets.

i’ve told most of my friends and brother but we’ll be telling my husbands parents in a couple of weeks for his mother’s birthday! I have no idea when to announce it on social media either! I feel like I’ll announce it that same week! ☺️

I’m 5 weeks and I wanna wait till like 20 weeks so I can do a cute pic with my bump and my son wearing a big bro shirt I’m hoping for a girl

Same as @Shanice Jackson !! I literally don’t want to say anything for the 9months. I just want to enjoy my experience and my peace. My family is super judgmental !!

@T that part I’m not saying nothing to nobody at all my family judgmental and they never liked me I’m literally the black sheep in my family literally

I’m almost 6 weeks and I told my close family and friends ♥️ I figured if anything happens (fingers crossed it doesn’t) they are the people I would want to support me! I’ll do the big social media announcement after the first trimester. I think you should do it whenever YOU want to! It’s an exciting time!! ♥️♥️💕 it’s such a personal choice and whenever you decide is the right time for you, is the right time to announce.

@Mariah Herron i felt the same way!! if anything happened, i wanted people i love to know so i could have that support and not have to either keep it in or say “by the way..” 😔

@Mariah Herron yeah that’s what I thought too, it’s a good way to put it cause you never know!

Tell the people you don't mind telling if you miscarry... Then do an announcement or whatever you like after the first trimester

I'm not telling my mom or sister cause they so judgemental and idc what they really thunk but they kinda people you feel like they have to have something to say
