DH already told his mom this week. I was planning on telling my parents this weekend. But I think we will wait on everyone else. The reason why we want to tell besides being excited, is they are our baby sitters for DD--and well all of a sudden we need her to watched during a few doctor's appointments---we figured they should know.
DH and I am sort of prepping DD---obviously she doesn't know, but we talk about the "what if" we had a baby. I don't think we would tell her until after 12 weeks at least--mostly because she has the biggest mouth and goes to school where I work---so I can hear her spilling it all over.

I am waiting until after our first appointment if possible but I won't be upset if DH or I let it slip before then. We ranged from telling people at 5 weeks for DD1 to 12 weeks for DD2 so maybe we will just average it out at 8-9 weeks this time.
I have already told a friend of mine (or casual acquaintance maybe, we aren't even that close). I was supposed to join her gym boot camp class and got my BFP the day before the first class.

I told my family. And then my mil put it on Facebook so we just let the news spread. Then I posted a pic of G on Instagram with a big sister shirt on. It wasn't new news to most people.

If everything looks ok after the first appointment we will probably tell our families. We won't go public till at least after materniti21. With DS I didn't post on fb till after the anatomy scan.

I've told a few close friends. We will tell immediate family after the first u/s if all is well. We will tell everyone else/I'll tell work after a good n/t and bloodwork. I hope to hold out until after the A/S to tell the boys. With my last loss it was a relief that I didn't have to explain it to them. We just said mommy isn't feeling well when I was sad/had my D&C/ needed to lay down etc.
But as I mentioned in the how are you feeling thread when I'm not drinking it's a big tell anyway!

It's slowly leaking out to our friends local to us. We will probably tell family after our first appointment but not planning to post publicly until after anatomy scan.

I won't be telling anyone until 2nd tri. I hate having to "untell" people if things don't go well.

Totally no plan. I've told my mom and a handful of coworkers. I'm not planning to hide it or to outright declare it. But at work I work with primarily women in their 20s and I've been very vocal about my loss history. I'm not worried about untelling and I've had several coworkers open up to me about their own losses and IF so it makes me feel like it's worth it to not keep it a secret. I'm visiting my dad and ILs at 9 weeks and if I'm pregnant still I'll tell them then since it'll be past the milestone.

Probably around July 4th, my moms birthday, though honestly it could be anytime after our dating scan which is Tuesday.

We have told my dad and brother and my in-laws. We will likely wait until we are out of first tri to announce publicly.
I found a super cheesy shirt I kind of want to wear to a family get together to announce and see how long it takes people to notice... 😅 But I probably won't lol

I want to know more about this shirt It's super cheesy and really depends on my official due date (aka when first tri is done) But it's a shirt that says "Red, white, and due January 2018" 😂

I'm not currently KU yet, but since this is #3 pretty much everybody knows we are trying. We don't really care about being coy and stuff this time around. I mean we just bought a minivan . We will probably tell our parents shortly after we find out, but in a private way because we will wait to tell our 3 year old until we are ready for the world to know.
