Just made my big FB announcement!

[imoan]

It was scary to hit "post" on that but I did it! Omfg... It's totally real now, isn't it?!

Ahhhhhhhhh!

[janedoe]

Congrats!!

[jessuhmarie]

yay! I freaked after I posted mine and almost deleted it, but a few days later I was really happy with the decision. That whole "jinxing" mentality bites even though it's illogical.

[runnerjenny]

How many weeks are you? I am trying to figure out when we should announce it. I don't want to do it too soon, but it's hard to keep it a secret too.

[gogadgetgo]

Congrats on announcing! I haven't yet (14 weeks) because we've been slow at telling family/friends IRL.

13 weeks. I figured I'd do it when I hit my second trimester. I know there's some argument about if the 2nd trimester is 13 weeks or 14 weeks... But everything is going so well and we just learned that both our NT measurements and bloodwork came back great so I figured it was time.

Congrats! I'm not posting another on FB (you have NO IDEA how hard it is to keep friends and family from posting as well, they tend to "forget" my request) because I'm due right before April Fool's Day... I have the BEST built in prank. It's going to be epic.

Heh. Congrats! Try not to get annoyed at everyone calling you momma randomly now.

Ugh... NOT looking forward to that. According to some people... for the next whatever months, I'm simply an incubator... not a person.

[blindyswife]

Yup, its real now! No take backs after it is FB official.

This is why I'm not saying anything on Facebook. And I don't want to be bugged for bump pics. That shit does by need to be out there forever to be looked at amongst old colleagues and what not.

Oh, I have no problem telling people to go fuck themselves if they think I'm posting bump pics. LOL!

[wkatie]

Congrats! I bet it feels good to be out of the pg closet!

Did you post a pumpkin with a fetus carved into it like some people on our BMB? I feel confident the answer to that is no and I won't have to make fun of you.

Oh HELL no! I also didn't do the shoe pics or the skeleton shirt with the baby in it that everyone over there seems to think is oh-so-clever!

I posted an ultrasound pic and said "So... um... this is happening"

[joolz]

I am very proud of you, imoan. Such restraint.

...I have that shirt. I wore it for Halloween.

[underwaterrhymes]

Yay!

I loved announcing on FB because we also waited until about 13 weeks to do it.

It's fun being able to be open about it, but now everyone is asking what we're going to name him and I'm like, "I don't know!"

Yay! I admit, I thought it looked cute. H also has a skeleton shirt, so we were a skeleton family.

Nice! I am probably going to do something really dorky when I announce on Facebook. I can't help myself. I am a nerd.

Don't do the shoes thing. You're better than that!!!
