It's really hard. So I guess right now nobody knows. kayakgirl73 on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-86029 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:29:55 +0000 kayakgirl73 86029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My mom, my sister and my Aunt.

Now that its been over a year of TTC, I'm sharing with a few people, because I need someone to talk to about this whole thing. mrsjyw on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82652 Mon, 27 Feb 2012 11:26:31 +0000 mrsjyw 82652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Our parents, my brother, extended family, and friends all have a vague idea that we are in the TTC phase of our relationship. No one hounds us though and we appreciate the silent support/prayers. :) tomatobee on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82235 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 16:01:35 +0000 tomatobee 82235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I haven't outright told people we're TTC. I talk to my mom and sister a little about my charting and whatnot, but mostly in the context of hormonal issues I have, which I've been talking to them about since before TTC, so its pretty normal, ALittleP on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82157 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 11:07:02 +0000 ALittleP 82157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We didn't tell anyone that we were TTC. We assumed that most people knew because we are both older and wanted kids. After a miscarriage, we told a few (parents, siblings, our very closest friends). Good luck to you :) pastemoo on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82152 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 11:02:09 +0000 pastemoo 82152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ our parents... but they only found out when we told them about the miscarriage. mediagirl on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82118 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 05:26:54 +0000 mediagirl 82118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No one. Actually, we had a few people fooled into thinking we were never having kids. It worked well for us because the surprise, when we told them at 12 weeks, was so, so worth it!

I could not have handled everyone asking about it constantly. redboots on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-82045 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 22:29:36 +0000 redboots 82045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I only told my best friend. sslm on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81979 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:45:02 +0000 sslm 81979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We didn't tell anyone and we're glad we didn't :) hilsy85 on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81967 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:27:11 +0000 hilsy85 81967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No one. We didn't want to deal with questions about when it was going to happen, just in case we had trouble. littlebug on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81942 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 18:48:40 +0000 littlebug 81942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My sister knows, and so does one of my closest girlfriends. She and her husband ttc'd for over a year, so I know she would be able to relate and sympathize. Otherwise, nobody else knows.

Other than her, I don't really plan to tell anyone else, although we might let a few close friends know when we get a BFP -- I am sure they'll assume once I stop drinking anyway :) heffalump on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81926 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 18:27:51 +0000 heffalump 81926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We didn't tell anybody. Too much pressure! Whenever anybody asked I'd always say, "we're enjoying being married- go bug my older brother who's been married for 6 years."

I am really hoping my husband can keep it a secret because he has a tendency to get excited and blab about stuff. If people ask, I am going to say non committal statements like "Oh we aren't quite there yet" or "Yeah we'll have to start thinking about that soon" prettylizy on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81865 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 16:30:18 +0000 prettylizy 81865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ BFF who was also trying at the same time, and my mom after I had a melt down in front of her. yoursilverlining on "Who did you tell that you are TTC?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-did-you-tell-that-you-are-ttc#post-81864 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 16:29:50 +0000 yoursilverlining 81864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We didn’t tell anyone we were TTC.

I'm a really private person, and feel like it's too much pressure to talk about or tell people about. Who know that you are TTC?
