pregnancy announcement

I have not & probably will not until im 20+ weeks

@Michelle I was thinking about also waiting until 20+! how far along are you?

We shared with close family and friends around 5 weeks. More friends around 10 weeks and publicly on the socials right around 11 weeks. I’m so happy the taboo around not announcing until you’re at 12 weeks has been largely dispersed. I have struggled to get pregnant and stay pregnant, so telling those around me so I could have support in the event of another loss was good for my mental health. All of that being said - you don’t need to announce anything you don’t want to! I’ve seen people skip the pregnancy announcement and go straight to ‘oh yeah, by the way I had a baby a few months ago’. What’s important is how YOU feel about it. ♥️

My husband and our 2 closest friends are the only ones that know and im not planning on telling anyone until birth😅

I shared with family at 9 weeks after my first appt. Then shared with everyone else and social media at 11 weeks! For me I'm super impatient and since it's my first pregnancy I wanted to be able to have the support of everyone if needed! I think it should be when you're comfortable to do so! If you want to do earlier when I was questioning when to share someone commented and told me "you are deserving of having your baby be showered in love for however long" and that really stuck with me.

@ Incognito I'm 13 weeks today ❤️ I had a miscarriage at 15 weeks back in June and it added to the trauma to have to message so many people & let them know we lost it.

With our first i announced to family at 7 weeks and friends at 12 weeks and social media at 16 weeks With our second (this current pregnancy) I told family at 12 weeks and I plan to wait until the Christmas or new year for social media! Maybe will make an announcement with our holiday cards and send those out and then post our holiday card on social media. Will be around 26 weeks by then! I don’t think it matters!! Whenever it feels right to you to announce is when it’s best to announce ❤️❤️

I don’t like sharing anything on social media or with anyone in general it’s easier to stay how I am now because I am not in the mood for the fake “how are you doing” by random bystanders.

I haven’t waiting for 1st trimester to be done in a week .

Only my partner and I knew for the first nearly 7 weeks. Then my MIL literally guessed. So now MIL, SIL, FIL know. I’m waiting till thanksgiving to announce it to family (including my parents) cuz otherwise it’ll be noticeable by Christmas. I won’t announce it on social media till they’re born. Anyone who doesn’t see me regularly isn’t welcome in my personal business like that. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I haven’t announced mine either on social media or to family 🙏 I want to wait to see my dad in person next month first so that I can announce it to family first ♥️ then lastly I can post on social about it once the main people know

10 weeks tomorrow and I’m just going with the flow maybe at 15 weeks lol

ive only announced to close friends and family i plan on announcing to the masses after i find out the gender.

I haven't told anyone except our immediate family members. We are waiting for the first trimester to get over.

We told my family & my hubby’s family basically right when we found out, and then we told our besties around the same time. Haven’t told anyone else though, and I think we’ll wait until after we get the gender results back to announce it on social media/tell our friends that we aren’t super close with.
