We had no plans to tell anyone until 12 weeks, but we found out the morning DH was leaving for England for a week with work. I was becoming so anxious not being able to talk about it since he was away, so we agreed I could tell my BFF. I just sort of word vomited it on her after dinner one night, but she came over the next day and we talked for hours and I felt SO much better. Her husband is also DH's best friend, so he knows as well. They're the kind of people who we'd tell even if we experienced a loss.
We are not telling family until the 12 week mark. I am a little nervous because, although my family lives on the other side of the country, I have a couple visits planned with them between then and now. I hate feeling like I am lying.
London my whole family is obsessed with me having more children. I visited them over the weekend and each of my sisters asked no less than three times if I was pregnant yet. I told them no.

xcrissx I certainly don't think my parents will ask (they don't know we were TTGP, and are not anxious for grandchildren yet). I should have clarified, I feel like I will be lying by omission. I'm just anticipating feeling guilty keeping news from them, especially when we only visit in person a couple times per year.

I understood what you were saying and I understand. But don't feel bad, it's your uterus.
My family has no idea I ditched the birth control. They just think they get to participate in my reproductive decisions.
DH was with me in the bathroom when we found out. He came in to hug me because I was so sure it was going to be neg and we were going to be out this cycle, then that second line showed up! I called my mom and told her right away, just like my first two babies, and she was super excited! I'm waiting until after the first appointment to tell DH's family, and I think I'm going to keep it off facebook until after we know what #3 is, I really don't want to hear "Oh, do you hope its a girl??" a trillion billion times.
