Well, I found out that my eggo is preggo this morning. :D Since I had a miscarriage last year, I wanted to know how long should I wait to tell anyone? 

we waited until after the first month....but people generally say wait until the end of the 1st trimester 

I would say after the 3rd month congrates :) 

I didn't have a history of miscarriage or anything, but I still waited until my 2nd trimester to tell most people.
Congrats! :) 

Congrats! And I would say after the 1rst trimester. 

i waited until we got our first sonogram pictures and then called everyone. 

The chance of miscarriage after a heartbeat is detected is fairly low, but you might feel more comfortable waiting until after the first tri. 

I would say tell people whenever you want. maybe after first appt with dr. Your gonna be excited and most people can't hold it in anyways 

Thanks!! I'm really excited! I am just a little scared. I also don't want to get my family's hopes up. They were really sad when I miscarried. I think I'm just going to wait it out until I see the heartbeat. 

We have decided we are going to wait atleast the first trimester before we tell. 

I waited until after the first trimester.... 

After 5 losses, including our daughter, DH and I agreed we would not telling about our the next pg until around 14 weeks. Although we both have a few people we would tell immediately; my best friend (like my sister), my mom and 4 other close friends of mine!! 

I would wait till after your 1st doctor's appointment.Congrats btw!!!!! 

I had an ectopic but still told everyone as soon as we knew.....I could not hold it in even with our kids we told them the same day the Dr confirmed 

CONGRATS! 

I tell my parents and inlaws after the first appointment. Everyone else knows in the 2nd trimester 

Thanks everyone! I'm sorry to hear about your losses. I decided that I'm waiting at least another week to tell our families. After my 1st trimester ill feel a little better about announcing it to everyone else.
On another note, I knew a lot of people get pregnant when their significant others come home from deployments but I'm surprised at how fast it happened! Lol 

It depends. I would tell close family and friends and ask for their prayers. Then, after the first trimester, I would let everyone else know. Just me though...

Congrats!!! 

I personally didn't wait and I blurted it out at the very first chance I got, but I might have acted differently had I ever had a problem with miscarriage.


My suggestion:

I would tell only a very select few close friends/family about it in the beginning. Only tell the people whom you would ask for support if you were to miscarry. Then at 12-14 weeks come out and tell the rest of the world like not so close friends and acquaintences.

The reason I suggest doing it like that is because if you were to miscarry, you would have a support system of close friends and family with whom you could talk to it about and they wouldn't feel duped by not ever even knowing you were preggo. Then wait to tell the not so close friends because you don't want to have something happen and they not get the memo and ask you "so when do you find out what you're having?" and then you have to break the news that you had a miscarriage.

Anywho, congratulations and I wish you the best in however and whomever you decide to tell!
