Hi all

Just asking to get a general vibe really. I have very recently found out I am pregnant so I'm 4 weeks pregnant - very early days!

Me and my OH are really close to both sets of parents. I'm in two minds - wait for a scan and tell the parents or tell them sooner but just say it in a way like it's very early days, but we wanted to share the news. I would keep the news limited to parents but I really am that close to them that if anything were to happen I would want to discuss everything with them.

Did anyone else tell parents very early on?

Not until after the 12 week scan with our first 2 children. I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks in May, I’m so glad they didn’t know, my dad would have found it very awkward. I think we are going to wait a little bit longer this time, I’m changing jobs and don’t want the news getting out before I’ve started my new job. I quite like just us knowing to be honest.

I told my mum a few days after I found out last year, at 4 weeks. I had a miscarriage and a few operations/infections and was glad she knew so she could support me
