Ohh, I'm going to get a lot more comments than just that!!?! 😉

My parents take it as a direct attack on them just to deliberately get to them and upset them. I get a guilt trip about how my mums not sleeping and eating and it's all my fault for getting pregnant (ummm....they're not having the baby, I am!) and also what an embarrassment and failure I am for the family and how dare I and how unfair it is on DS1!! I'll hear it all! And how DH shouldn't be so irresponsible and should keep it in his pants.

And being a December baby, I'll ruin Christmas! Oh, it's going to be so much fun telling people!! Not! 😞

Oh Mumofsix my heart goes out to you. I cannot believe anyone would say such harsh things over the announcement of a baby.

I'm only on my third but will probably start getting the comments, since two seems to be the "norm."

I didn't tell anyone till my ultrasound at 20 weeks.

I have two ultrasounds scheduled already for the NT and then at 18 weeks for gender. I will tell the other boys after the NT scan and I plan on waiting until after we know the gender to announce it all at once to our out of state family. I already get the "you're busy" comments from parents at my sons' school so I don't plan on saying anything until the fall when I won't be able to hide it :)

We have told close family and a few close friends. Rest of the world will wait until we know the gender. I am hoping that cuts down on the tons of "better be a girl this time" comments
