She kept ringing me asking if she could tell "so and so from bingo" lol
I had to laugh at that! LOL My OH's mum doesn't even ask though, when we got engaged we called to tell her, by the time we rang his sister and the grandparent (literally five minutes later) they already knew!!

I told two close friends to start with as I wanted advice and they both have children. Now I have told a few more friends and OH has told his mum. But I dont want to tell my family yet as I know my mum will go over the top and I cant be doing with that right now, and so I dont feel I should make it general knowledge until she knows

We told our parents and siblings literally the evening we got the We couldn't keep it in. However we have told them all to keep it quiet until we have the first scan and know that everything is ok.
However my dad has turned out to be the worst one, he keeps asking me "Can i tell yor aunts...can i...can i" he is worse than the women sometimes

Well we told both sets of parents yesterday & needless to day that everyone is thrilled, although i think his family would have preferred us to be married first. I'm still up and down on how i feel about the whole situation though. Probably hormones!

Hi Rayven,

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I told my husband on the day I found out and my mum at about 6 weeks. We then told my dad and hubbie's parents around about 8 weeks.

We didn't tell anyone else until 14 weeks after my scan! This includes B&B! I had a miscarriage last year and was very nervous about 'announcing' this pregnancy until after the scan.

Who are you considering telling?

Hey Poppy! *waves* well last night we told my OH's parents (he just had to tell someone or he was going to expode!! Bless him!) And i told my Mum this morning. I've decided to leave telling my girls until i've had my 16/20 week scan & probably everyone else at the same time. Its going to be very hard to keep it zipped for that long though! LOL
