Any tips on how to tell 3 year old dd im pregnant? I'm 17 weeks and planning to tell her sometime after 20 week scan but dreading it a bit. She loves older children but has always been very dismissive of babies.

Do you have Netflix? There's a show on there called Daniel Tiger's Neighbourhood, and they have a big session on him getting a new sibling - it's really sweet. Maybe watch it with her, maybe a few times, then drop in that she'll be getting a sibling too. Daniel is anxious to start with but really charmed with the baby when she arrives.
I'm sure there are books about becoming a big sister too.
Congratulations! My son was 3.9 when we found out we were expecting, and the age gap is really lovely.
