just got my positive test and im so excited i wanna tell everyone na. but my mom keeps saying wait till 3 months. when did u all share the news, after first scan or before?
I'd gently say wait till you feel comfortable, there's no rush. After my loss I waited till the second trimester scan to feel safe announcing. Do what protects your heart, no one else decides this for you.
Whenever YOU want yaar, dont let anyone pressure the timing. Lot of people wait past 12 weeks but it's totally personal. Dont stress, enjoy your little secret as long as u like.
I'm in the same boat, dying to tell everyone but holding off till 12 weeks like my gynac suggested. Did others also tell parents first and friends later? feels like the safer way na.
In my joint family it was hard to keep it quiet haha, MIL guessed in week 6 itself. We did the proper announcement after the 3 month mark though. Old folks also believe in waiting till first trimester is over.
Most people wait till after the first trimester, around 12-13 weeks, because the early risk settles by then. Both times I told only close family early and the world later. But honestly it's your news, announce whenever you feel ready.
