Telling family about pregnancy

[Anonymous]

Third child? No one cares. Yes, just wait.

Not sure why there's a weird troll on this thread would doesn't like it when people explain that past the first kid, no one cares but it's true. Unless your sister is crazy, this should not be in any way a big deal.

This. If you are that concerned, tell her first, and ask her when she would be comfortable with you sharing with the rest of the family

+1 Tell your sister. Honestly, I would tell her now. That way she has time to process it before she is tired from her pregnancy and labor, and helping her little family adjust to the new addition.

My sister got pregnant w her second while I was pregnant with my first. Not a big deal AT ALL and I’m thrilled that my kid and her kid are so close.

Outshine? You are just saying what’s happening. Maybe don’t announce it at her baby shower or at her delivery. But literally any other time is appropriate.

NP You care because you keep posting. You are the weird troll. You care so much and it is so weird. Please print this out and bring it to your therapist.

Definitely wait - you can still lose a genetically normal pregnancy past 12 weeks. Ask me how I know....

If you are worried about your sister being upset because you are staying the limelight, need to tell everyone before you sister gives birth.

Announcing a pregnancy will be overshadowed by the birth of a baby…

I told my close family (parents/in-laws/siblings) pretty much immediately after the initial ultrasound. I would have also told them if I miscarried.
