Announcing pregnancy

[Veebee89]

When and how did you tell close friends and family you’re pregnant?

I’m only 5 weeks and feel almost guilty about keeping it a secret!

We're telling my family at 11 weeks because we're going on holiday and sharing accommodation, I'd really struggle to hide it because I'm very sick! I don't think you should feel bad about keeping it to yourself, most people wouldn't expect to be told before 12 weeks x

Parents and best friend as soon as I got the BFP

Other close family and friends and DD1 after NIPT results came back low risk aroind 12 weeks

Everyone else, as and when we saw/spoke to them after that

Told my mum and brother when I saw them both just before the 12 week scan. I rarely see them together as my brother lives a distance away. They asked why I wasn’t drinking so it seemed the right time.

Gave my dad a call shortly after the scan. Sent my mates the photo of the scan in the group WhatsApp.
