Hi all,

Just wanted to know if each of you have shared the news with your family. The thread on Jan 2008 due made me curious. So whats up in our club??

Cheers,
Perky

Hi,

Congrats to you all!

I have told my parents and in laws in 11th week. Have told a few close colleagues after week 13.

My MIL could not keep the secret and told her whole family and I was fuming at her as everyone started wishing me. I told her not to do tht as I am 30 and this is my first baby so anything can go wrong.

But if I would not have told her, she would have been angry with me. so well, now a few people know. :)

Hi guys,

We waited until 8th week for the doc to say ' everything is okay' . Then we shared the news. At first, we wanted to keep it secret until completion of 3rd month but as I have nausea, I couldn' t wait to talk to my parents. So, the cat is out.
Another reason is: my son would have leaked it :)

Hi Deepa,

Congratulations on your pregnancy...In my case, my parents & in-laws know. No one else.
One thing I found strange is your FIL knows but not MIL. Good going gal...:)

take good care of yourself,
Perky

Perky, I knw its strange but i think u will agree that men can only keep sectrets. If my MIL /Mother knw it , then it would spread like a fire in the forest.
Plus as I may call myself lucky, no nausea at all this time, so I can keep the secret.

Deepa,

I know what you mean. I told my mom in India but not to my cousin in US. Two days later, he called me and congratulated me. I was surprised to find out that my mom told his mom and they told him right away. I was so mad at my mom for leaking before I got the chance to tell.
But you can´ t blame them. I guess its more difficult for grandparents to keep it a secret, especially news like this :)
