Telling older sibling

Hi all,
I'm expecting my 2nd, 6 weeks gone. My dd has already asked twice if I have a baby in my belly (before I even knew) and is picking up on other little things. She gets really worried if I'm sick and the nausea is just starting to set in. We really want to tell her but am worried about telling her too early. When did you tell an older sibling you were expecting?

After the 20 wk anomaly scan. What age is your DD?

She's nearly 5 so has a pretty good understanding and doesn't miss a trick

How old is she? DC1 was 2 when I fell pregnant, we told him at 24/25 weeks as it would have felt forever for him had he known earlier. This time DC were 6&9 so told them after the 12 week scan as didn’t want them hearing from somebody else.

She knows already. Just say yes next time she asks.
