About this deal
There are lots of different ways that you can announce your pregnancy, so what should you consider when planning your big reveal? Anna suggests "Think about who you are going to tell first. For some people, this would be the baby's grandparents, for others telling their best friends would be the priority. If you already have children, think about whether to involve the older siblings in the pregnancy announcement."
