To be 100% honest, if & when I become pregnant, as soon as I got a positive blood test, i'm posting ads, i'm sending cards, i'm sending smoke signals, I'm sending letters, and I'm sending big cordial gift baskets to my great grandmother, both of my grandmothers, and both my mother and my mother in law. And to tell my husband I'm going to have it placed in the churches bulletin or have it placed in his agenda book!
So...for me, after I got a postive blood test.
Blessings To You & Yours

I had this issue too! It all depends on you and how close you are to family. I work for my parents, so obviously they would suspect something when I run to the bathroom every little bit to get sick. I told everyone in my family, my hubby & his family, and close friends right after I found out. I am waiting to tell anyone else for at least another month ( I am 5 weeks now). The chances of having a miscarriage are higher in the first trimester, so that is why everyone says to wait until month 4. I firmly believe it is whatever you want to do honey!

Most people will wait 3 months to tell everyone that they are pregnant.

It really just depends on you. If you feel like telling everyone now, that's your decision.
Most people like to wait until the first 12 weeks are up because during those first few weeks the miscarriage rate is greater and no one wants to have to explain why they're suddenly not pregnant anymore.
Personally, I told people as soon as I found out. I was just that excited!

I would wait 3 months...I was pregnant and was telling people at 6-7 weeks, then I lost it...its much easier on everyone (especially yourself) if you wait.

depends on who they are. I told my sister and my boyfriend imediatly. Waited til I was over the shock to tell my parents, and everyone else I waited til I was past the 3 month mark that way I was past the risk stage for miscarrying. Last thing you'd want it everyone asking how its going and you haveing to explain that you lost it

Regarding your answer to the woman whose friend placed her baby for adoption:
Here's the reply I gave her. In many ways, my reply also applies to you. Here it is, in its entirety:
----------------------------------
No offense, but I think you're being way too harsh in your judgment of this woman, who you claim to be friends with.
One reason I say that is because I also placed my baby for adoption after giving birth to her at 17. But my opinion would be the same even if I hadn't had that experience.
Just because she has "money and family support" doesn't mean she's ready to handle raising a baby. There's more to it than just having money support, as I'm sure you know.
Also, just because you kept your baby even though you were four years younger than she is now is irrelevant. Being able to raise a baby is not all about the mother's age, anymore than it is solely about having money or child support.
If you are truly this woman's friend, then you wouldn't be calling her a "b---h" for making the RESPONSIBLE choice that she made.
You should be PROUD of her -- and you should be happy that she did not have her unborn child murdered in an abortion clinic.
She decided for whatever reason that she could not do this child justice as a mother right now in her life.
SHE is the only one who's qualified to make that decision, not you.
A good friend would support her in her decision. Are you ready to step up to the plate and do that for her?
