She's always telling me that shes a good big sister, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350466 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 10:32:54 +0000 autumnlove 2350466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told them early (6-8 weeks) and LO 1 blabbed right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350440 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 10:21:28 +0000 pastemoo 2350440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol.

He never told anyone. When my mom came to visit, she told DS's preschool teachers before i was ready to though, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350392 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:41:59 +0000 travelgirl1 2350392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told her quite early, from what I remember. We also told her about the pregnancy in between (she was very young and we lost that pregnancy), now she knows one of the birth stones on my necklace is for "the baby in the sky". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350331 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:20:15 +0000 BandDmommy 2350331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: too funny! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350330 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:19:58 +0000 BandDmommy 2350330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: hahaha. The only real interest my son has in my baby bump is driving his cars on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350326 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:18:26 +0000 mrsjyw 2350326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told him when we told our parents around 8 weeks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350314 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:10:28 +0000 Ree723 2350314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: Lol!!! She is too much! 😂</p> <p>I can't remember when we told DD1 that her little sister was on the way, but she was only 10 months old when we got pregnant anyway, so it wasn't like she was going to be telling anyone! Now with LO3, we haven't told either of our girls yet - they're 3 and 21 months (and the younger one is a great talker!) and I just don't want them talking about a baby in mummy's belly yet. I'll tell them when I start getting a proper bump I think.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350310 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 09:05:42 +0000 Truth Bombs 2350310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told her once we were ready for the world to know. She would have blabbed.</p> <p>@oliviaoblivia: @BandDmommy: Yesterday my LO bent over to pick something up and then looked me dead in the eyes and said "Mama, I can bend over because I don't have a baby brother in my tummy. You can't." THANKS FOR RUBBING IT IN KID. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350282 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:49:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2350282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: "who is your baby's daddy?" "I don't know."<br /> She's a class act. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350279 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:48:07 +0000 BandDmommy 2350279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: hahahaha... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350277 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:46:45 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2350277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told her around four weeks, but she was fifteen months and not telling anyone. With #3 we didn't find out until ten weeks so I didn't have to wait to tell her. She doesn't really tell anyone anything about my baby belly, she talks more about her own baby belly...he says "let me out!" And is coming on Wednesday. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350271 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:44:06 +0000 BandDmommy 2350271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We told him but I don't think he tells anyone. My DD is not even a year old so she has no idea what is going on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350266 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:43:34 +0000 mamabolt 2350266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We waited until we wanted everyone to know, especially after an 11w loss earlier in the year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350263 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:42:43 +0000 winniebee 2350263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I told him probably around 7-8 weeks? He had only just turned 2 so I don't think he was telling anybody yet ; ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350260 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:41:20 +0000 regberadaisy 2350260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we waited until we were ready to share. Same reasons. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-keep-your-pregnancy-a-secret-from-your-other-children#post-2350252 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 08:37:47 +0000 mediagirl 2350252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of the teachers at my daughter's daycare is 6 weeks pregnant. She told her daughter who promptly tells everyone she sees that her mommy has a baby in her belly and she is going to be a big sister to a little brother or little sister. Haha. They ended up having to tell the teachers at the daycare since her daughter told them for her. ;-)</p> <p>Did you tell your children or did you wait until you were ready to tell everyone before you told them? </p>
