when/how to tell my other children ages 9,7 and 6

Has anyone any ideas on how to break the pregnancy news to existing children, I think that they will be thrilled but not sure how to tell them?

I bought my ds a "I'm the big brother" t-shirt from Amazon. He read it and got so excited, very special moment. So we will have the t shirt as a keepsake for years to come!

I have always told mine after the 12 week scan, congratulations.

I wanted to wait until after the 20 week scan but it was proving difficult. We told ours (8 and 6) at about 14 weeks. We showed them a scan picture and asked if they knew what it was and where it might be. They were thrilled. I was surprisingly nervous before telling them!
