When did you tell the family?

[helle]

We wanted them to share in our excitement from the start, and also wanted a support network if (heaven forbid) anything went wrong.

Same here.

We waited until the first blood tests came back though, to make sure that the pee-stick was indeed right and my HCG levels were at good levels.
I did let slip to Mum though before hand, because the day before our BFP we had just ordered my wedding dress and I was pretty sure the size I got wouldn't fit me at 6 months preg ><;

There really isn't a right or wrong time! And alot of different factors compell others to tell sooner or later than others. I'd just go with whatever you feel right with.

Congrats to you and your DH and here's to a happy and healthy 9 months!

When I was preg and had MC our parents knew and a few close friends of mine, and a few at work (as i started bleeding at work).

When preg with DS parents knew straight away i think DH rang my mum then his within 5 mins of POAS!! Then my closest friends knew in case I needed support if anything went wrong, work knew as time went on as people talk! and lots knew at DH work as he tod them, then everyone else after 19 week scan. Including our siblings

This time Parenst know and and my closest friends, DH work and some at my work (I only do work 1 day a week so havent seen many to tell them), rest of friends and siblings will find out after scan next week.
