when should I tell them?

I think close people such as your mum/ best friend etc can be told early, but definately wait till 12 weeks to tell everyone else. It would be terrible to tell everyone and then miscarry, and have people come up and ask you how the pregnancy is going. Waiting till 12 weeks pretty much avoids this.

It's up to you. I told family as soon as I knew and close friends when I saw them. But most people I didn't tell until I was 12 weeks.

What you want to avoid is telling people you don't know very well who might not find out the news if the pregnancy didn't work out. If you were to be unfortunate enough to have a miscarriage, the last thing you want is the friend of a friend coming up to you a month later and asking you how your pregnancy is going.

So until the first trimester is over, it's best to just tell people within your close circle.

Depending on your relationships with family members, I would tell the closest (mom, sis) right now. I would wait to tell anyone else (not so close friends, coworkers, etc) until you are at least 12 weeks. The reason is that most miscarriages happen in the first trimester. If, God Forbid, anything should happen, you won't be swamped with, "So, how's the baby?" from everyone you know. And because Mom and Sis know, they can help you through the tough times. You're in my prayers to keep this from happening, but if it does, it's easier to deal with on a lesser known basis. Good Luck to you and Blessings...

With both of my pregnancies, I waited until after the first trimester to tell family. I told my friends when I was about 4 months along.

There is no "right" time to tell everyone that you are pregnant, it is all a matter of when you are comfortable.

I told the people I was closest too right away because I figure even if I lost the baby I would need their support. I told everyone else at some point throughout my pregnancy.

Congratulations. Most folks wait until after the first trimester (3 months). I wish you a well and happy pregnancy.

Most couples like to wait until the first trimester is over. Only because you are more likely to miscarry in the first

Tell them when you feel comfortable some people tell as soon as they find out. My neice is 8 mos and just told me so it depends on the person i suppose.

usually after your first trimester since that's when he risk dramatically decrease. however, tell who you want when you want.

if it was me, i'd tell my man first (which is obviously what you've done). then as time passed, my parents and my best friend. then after the first trimester, the rest of my family and coworkers and such

i only told ppl last week

im 5 months pregnant now

but its upto you

my reason was personal - it depends how long you want to keep it a secret for

congrats btw ;)
