I didn't do an official announcement, but I posted photos from our babymoon when I was 6 months, so of course it was obvious by then!

I'd put it on facebook when my belly is undeniably showing or 6 months, whichever is later.

@kjpugs: ha! This was totally my sister. I heard her tell the bagging guy at the grocery store about her pregnancy. Cracked me up.

Yes, but I don't keep acquaintances on FB, just friends and family. We announced after the NT scan came back ok and again when we confirmed the gender.

I announced when my son was born but never mentioned anything about my pregnancy before then. Mainly because I was paranoid something would go wrong, and I felt like all my close family/friends knew already.

I put up an announcement at 14 weeks after our NT scan. I was excited to tell everyone!!

#1: at 9 weeks after the first ultrasound
#2: haven't officially announced it yet. Maybe won't until little guy is here.

I put a picture up of me looking down at my tummy with " can't wait to meet you" at 22 weeks. So most people already knew by then anyways. But I guess that was "announcing" it to anyone I hadn't seen in awhile!

For LO1, we announced on FB at 20 weeks.
For LO2, we didn't announce until she was born. But by that point I hadn't posted anything on FB in nearly a year, and haven't posted anything since. All the people who needed to know were privately informed by about 18 weeks.
I really wish I could just delete it all together, but some of my social groups use FB for events.

I didn't, the people who needed to know were told so in person by us.
We did a really short announcement of the birth though.

We announced around 16 weeks on Facebook but had also spent quite a while cleaning out our friends list!

@theotherstark: I've felt the same way for a while...I don't want to share any pics of the baby on FB. My husband and I need to have a convo about that I guess...my Instagram only has 15 people and is private so I anticipate sharing there, but I am wary of FB which I know has way too many people on it. My husband wants to share the news there, and he totally should if he wants to.
