Just curious how many aren't telling anyone they're ttc. I am not telling anyone! It took 7 months last time and I don't want everyone asking me questions.

UMM I have a confession

I have not really even told DH. SHHH.

He knows something is up, but he isn't complaining if KWIM. haha

Hi

We haven't told DH's family b/c his mother has issues with everything we do.And he's 30 and I'll be 30 in October.Other then that everyone on my side and all our friends know.But none of them will know if we get pg before Christmas b/c it will be our Christmas surprise for them all.If after we'll wait to tell any of them until Easter!!!

Even dd and dsd will have to wait,they'll be so happy for us!!!

Well, I guess after reading all the posts here, I will be the only you has told most of our families that Yes, we are trying right now. My dh also has two other cousins that are ttc #1 as well right along with me. This may sound extremely childish but we were last to get married last Nov. 2002 and now since we're all ttc, it would be nice if we were the first ones to get pg! Does that sound horrible? Sorry, but I sat through everyone's wedding showers, weddings and everything else so I hope we can announce our bfp first! My family and his immediate knows were ttc but the rest of them, do not. He's Italian and has a very large family compared to mine. We have no pressure from either side, no one is really even asking about it except friends so were fine with telling people.

We planned on keeping it secret, but then DH told his family around Jan we were planning on TTC this summer. So, of course summer rolls around and they kept asking us so we went and told them that we changed our minds and not having kids. We even told his parents DH had a vasectomy. We're so mean ;). I told my mom to keep it secret that we're TTC because she kept bugging us to visit her for Xmas and I didn't know if I could if I was PG then and couldn't keep stalling. Other than her, nobody knows - anymore.

Well, I am trying too. But I am so bad at keeping this a secret! I want to keep it a secret because we really honestly thought we were done, and then well, our marriage turned around and we are happier and more in love than we have ever been and well, we just really want a baby. I am not looking forward to everyone saying, "I thought you said you were done, I thought Brian was getting the snip." So anyway, my middle sister knows, so does my best friend and my cousin's wife. But they are all good at keeping their mouths shut when it counts! So do a few internet friends that have no connections to any of my family or local friends. Then we want to wait to tell everyone until I am about 3 months along. But the way I balloon up, who knows if I can keep it secret. Plus I just get so excited, I want to tell the world!
