Is it really bad luck ?

posted 25th Jan
Good morning ladies <3
Hope everyone is having a blessed day.

I have been hearing over & over that its" bad luck" to tell people your pregnant . I also heard that is not true , but buying clothes is . I'm trying to find out when is the right time to let it be known to friends & family. I already told a few people , but I'm curious of when to make it public. When did you make it public ?

well , thank you & hope to hear from you girls <3

The superstition is that if you tell people before 12 weeks, it's bad luck.

DO you believe in good luck and bad luck? Anyway, whatever time you feel is right, is right. Some people like to wait till 12 weeks since the chance of a misscariage drastically decreases once you're out of your first trimester.

We told everyone from day 1 with our first so at like 4 weeks lol. Our second we told family at about 6 weeks and friends at 14 weeks after our scan.

I dont believe in any of that bad luck nonsense.

Whenever you feel comfortable doing it. I don't buy clothes until 20 weeks or so.

I hid my 3rd pregnancy for a bit. Aside from friends and family, I didn't tell anyone i was pregnant until about 24 weeks when I couldn't hide it anymore.

I made it public to my family and friends the day I had a positive test, around 4 weeks pregnant with both our daughters. Heck with our first my parents knew we were TTC even, as I discussed it with my Mom. I was feeling nervous, the what if I don't get pregnant worries.

I didn't have a choice to wait.... Im navy so I had to inform my chain of command but everyone pretty much already knew before I did. Then I told my mom and magically my whole family found out... I think everyone knew by the time I was 6 weeks.

No. With DS1 I told my mom at 9 weeks. DD I told people as soon as I found out around 4 weeks and DS2 was the same.

This one we haven't told anyone yet and I'm 6 weeks. Not sure when we are going to tell people.

Im glad everything worked out , I know how hard it is to probably see a negative pregnancy test over & over. I mean I dont know how long it took you to TTC but I hope everything worked out & I hope your blessed through out your whole life <3
