If you were pregnant, would you tell everyone right away?

when me and my wife found out that she was pregnant of course we told almost evryone we know. but unfortunately my wife got a miscariage then it was painful specially with her to deal with the people who were asking about the pregnancy. so from then on we kept quiet. she got a lot of miscarriages before we hit the jackpot and we still didnt tell anyone about it. my relatives just got shock when they saw my wife in an october birthday party (and she was dued january) to see my wifes tummy is bulgy. so i think it is okay to say it but maybe around 5-6 months of the pregnancy.... to soon is really to soon. thats what my experience was.

I would tell my close friends and family. But not a ton of people until after 12 weeks. After 12 weeks is when you're in the clear usually the docs tell you if anything is going to happen it will happen in the first 12. It would be horrible to tell everyone you are preggo and then have to tell them what happend and such. SO I would only tell those close to me at first.

In my 2 pregnancies, I had known even if its still weeks. I am one of those whose body changes right away and I just notice them right away and when I conducted pregnancy test, my suspicions were confirmed. I also told my friends and relatives that I was pregnant. I even called my closest friends minutes after the pregnancy test because I felt just like bursting if I don't get to tell them right away.

I wouldn't tell it to everyone,.. rather I will tell it to someone.. I think the first person who'll know about my situation would be my boyfriend. he has the right to know, and for him to help me on how will we tell it to my parents.. and of course, we are both responsible with our baby.. well, I will just inform my friends about my pregnancy right after we tell it to my parents..

I am pregnant. And we didn't tell everyone right away. Mu hubby decided to hold off telling his dad. Reasons can get a bit complicated. But part of it is we had a pregnancy once upon a time that had an unsurvivable problem. The family on both sides was upset. And sad. I think he wanted to wait and make certain we wouldn't have a repeat of that. Which is understandable. But now everyone knows, and we are waiting our little arrival.

Hi there beautyqueen26 Hahaha I don't think you would be able to keep from people as long as 5 months as you were certainly be showing by then . You are basically out of the danger zone at around 12 weeks (3 months) and that is when I started to tell people, obviously telling my family first and then friends!

We told everyone pretty early when I was pregnant with my son. I had no choice but to tell the people I worked with, because I had morning sickness all day. They would have known something was up. :) My husband had to tell his supervisor, and the person that keeps track of appointments, so that he could go with me to the doctor. He told other people, too. Since we were telling so many people that weren't part of our family, we told our family, too. If we get pregnant again, I don't think we will be telling everyone so early. We will probably wait until I'm out of the first trimester. If my husband is on day shift, he will have to tell the person who keeps track of appointments for his shop, but that should be it.

We told our immediate family when it was confirmed but waited until the first three months were up to tell anyone else.

For me,yes but not to the point that I will be telling everybody. I guess with my family. I think it is important that they know so that they can help me take care of myself during pregnancy. Like avoiding slippery floors and rag all over the house that could harm and my baby. With my past pregnancies, my mom knew about it and I think it helps a lot. They don't leave me at home all alone by myself, or they don't expect me to do heavy tasks. My mom comes with me during check up when there is no one to come with me.

With my first pregnancy the only people I told were my husband and my boss. I had heard it wasn't safe to do litter box duties while pregnant and since that was part of my job, I told my boss. She recommended me to quit, but I didn't want to leave her hanging. So when I got home I spoke to my husband about it and we decided it was best for me to quit as we didn't want to harm our baby. But I still felt bad for not being able to give my boss a 2 week notice, even though I know she understood. With my second pregnancy my husband and I decided to wait until after the 1st trimester to tell the family. I too wanted to shout "I'M PREGNANT" to everyone around me LOL each time, but I held off until after the danger zone. And no I didn't tell everyone, just some of my family members. With my 3rd pregnancy I miscarried while in my first trimester, so I am glad I didn't announce my pregnancy to everyone.

We waited quite a while to tell people. We had tried for so many years to get pregnant and couldn't, so I guess we were just getting used to it ourselves. I was five months along before we told family. It wasn't that unusual really because we don't live near any family at all. We told friends who live near us long before telling our family. Side note; I was starting my second trimester before learning that I was pregnant. The symptoms were there but it was just the last thing on my mind after spending a few years getting over the fact that I would probably never have a child.

If I were pregnant, I will definitely tell everybody. Why not, right? In my case, it would be good and great news that I got pregnant, because I've been trying for nine years and still not getting pregnant until now (LOL). I'll just laugh it out loud to ease the pain. Good morning.

With my eldest, I only found out that i was pregnant after 2 months..I had a very irregular period at that time, so i thought, it was just another delay..Plus, i wasn't married and my family is very conservative, so when i found out, i didn't hastily tell them for fear of being cursed and ex-communicated by the clan..When i couldn't hide it any longer and I was also having some problems with my relationship with my ex-boyfriend, I had to tell somebody..Who else but my sister..So, the whole family gathered together for a meeting on how to run my life and the decision was not to support me for my mistake..So much for being excited after so many years of wanting to have a baby, I was banned.. With my baby now, my husband and I were so excited that once confirmed, we told the whole family and close friends and even went to church and my mother in law was so proud, that she even told her church friends, so many have shook my hands and prayed for me and the baby..because this one too was long awaited..

if you are married you must be proud of it and blurt it out. but if its unwanted pregnancy i dont think so. cause who will be proud of it. but of course it doesnt necessarily mean that you will abort it. its a sin. if i were on her foot. i will continue the pregnancy. cause its not the baby's fault. it might be a good luck charm to the parent.

hi beautyqueen! well that was my concern at first, especially that i learned about my pregnancy quite early--5 weeks. at first, i was kinda apprehensive even to tell my husband and parents and parents in law. but then again, i thought they would really wonder if i started buying those prenatal milk and vitamins. and at least, they would understand if i am feeling sick. so i told them. and of course, word spread fast and so within a few days, people in church already knew. i wanted to be sure and see that my tummy is getting bigger before i told everyone. but i was starting to have aversions to smell, so it was inevitable to tell. and then of course, at least people have become more understand especially my mood swings. so all in all it was okay. and i could really see that people are so excited over the coming of my baby, :-) so well, that was it. that is my story. i trust God that He is sovereign. :-)

I had at least one miscarriage and possibly more than that, and considering my age, I would believe it is a miracle, but I would keep quiet about until I am sure the baby is able to survive if I do start bleeding. So I would not tell anyone right away because of the risks and the dangers of losing the baby. I would not even tell my husband. I can really keep a secret. I do not want to tell anyone and then something goes wrong. I would then feel like a liar.

Yes, I will. When I knew I was pregnant, I told my mom and then my good friends. And next day when I went to work, I told my colleagues. I think it's better because sometimes you have to let others to know you are pregnant. And they can consider for you, such as not let you carry heavy things etc. At least I was very careful when I knew my good friend was pregnant. I was like a bodyguard when we went shopping together:) I love China

The first time I got pregant I told everyone right away. But I ended up losing the baby about a week after I found out I was pregnant, I was probably about 6 or 7 weeks along. When I got pregnant the second time waited until I was a couple of months along, just to not jinx the pregnancy and to make sure everything was progressing well before I told anyone. It was hard though I was excited and I wanted to tell everyone, but I was afraid if I did something bad would happen.

We told everyone after the first two months. I could never keep a secret. We did lose one of ours though,but that was before we had told anyone about it so we did not experience the other side of it.

My husband and I planned our first child and immediately after we found out we were pregnant, we called and told everyone!! I guess I never really thought too much into the fact that there could have possbibly been something wrong and I could have lost the baby, but thankfully I never did. I never did anything special to let family know either, I just called on the phone right away. LOL Which of course by the time I got pregnant again, Planned too, (12 mos after the first child was born), my husband and I wanted to surprise everyone in a cute way and we ended up putting a "I'm a big sister" shirt on my daughter at her first birthday to let everyone know we were expecting, Yet again!
