I would only tell people very close to you, otherwise they'll be asking you all the time "any luck?" and that puts a lot pressure on you.

My husband and I have chose not to tell anyone... This will be our first child when we do conceive and we have no idea how long it will take. I personally don't want people asking every day about it especially if it does end up taking a long time... I mean everytime someone asked, it would just bring the disappointment back.
I just think it'll be more fun to surprise people about it when they're not expecting it! :) Good Luck!

My hubby and I are trying to conceive and we have told my family (except my parents, we want it to be a surprise for them when we do get pregnant, and do something BIG to tell them when it finally happens!) we told my hubby's mom and grandparents and our best friends. I didn't really want to tell everyone because I didn't want pressure and hear "are you guy pregnant YET?" all the time! and I like that only a few people know because it is more special to me.... and i knew that our family and close friends would never make us feel pressure and they would be totally supportive and excited that we were trying! I also wanted to tell my sisters because I could get advice from them (2 of them have children) and then I could just talk to them about it instead of only talking to my hubby and making him insane! hehe.
But it all depends on the person! :)

No. I can't tell you how annoying it is for folks trying to conceive that are having trouble to have others ask them..."well, you got a bun in the oven yet?". The exception is if you are, in fact, having trouble (it's been more than a year) and are soliciting advice to either improve things or doctors that may be recommended.

My hubby and I are trying to conceive right now and I don't care that people know, lots of people have been throwing baby dust our way and some people just ask how it's going. I don't mind too much unless it's the same person asking repeatedly...

Only if they are trying to conceive as well.
I have found it hard to talk with other people who aren't because they try to convince me that I should wait or it isn't the time...
Opinions like that don't really support a person that wants a baby...

I don't think there's really a right or wrong answer here. Some want to share the fact that they're TTC, and some decide to hold off and wait until they're pregnant.
My husband and i decided not to tell anyone we're TTC, we're going to wait ans surprise everyone once we're pregnant.

well it depends on who you are telling at work or school no family i think is ok if you dont mind them questioning you every month which could cause more stress to you and stress is bad when trying to concieve hope this helps

i wouldnt tell anyone only because then people keep asking you i you are pregnant and if you are you should really wait to tell people untill you are atleast 10 wks pregnant because you could miscarry.

Only if you think they really care. I know I would be like why the hell is she telling me that?
