Just got my positive test and im so excited but also nervous. Part of me wants to tell my parents right away and part of me feels we should wait a bit. When did you all share the news?
Whenever you feel ready yaar, theres no fixed rule. A lot of people wait till after the first scan around 12 weeks just to be sure. But if you want your mom's support early, tell her, dont overthink it.
I told my parents early because I knew I'd lean on them so much, and honestly their excitement made the whole thing sweeter. If your parents are your safe space, dont wait too long na.
I felt like I'd burst keeping it in, so I told my parents the day I got the positive haha. It felt so good to share. Do what feels right for your heart, not what others say.
Most wait till the first trimester is done and the early scan looks good, around 3 months, just because the early weeks are delicate. But parents are usually the ones you want around for support, so its personal.
I'd gently say theres no wrong time, but I personally waited till after 12 weeks the second time, because I'd had a loss before and wanted to be sure first. Whatever gives you peace and support is the right choice.
