With my 4th pregnancy, we told a few people around 6 or 7 weeks, then told my mom at 10, and my dad around 11 or 12. With my 5th, we told our family pretty early (figured we'd get that over with right away since I wasn't sure it would go over well- being that I had just given birth to 3 other children in the past 3 years). Next time, I might wait awhile. But then again, maybe not. It's kind of exciting just thinking about it, though. Having this secret and waiting until the perfect moment to share it!
