When is it OK to tell that I am pregnant I am almost 5 weeks pregnant.. I want to tell our parents and family etc... When is the right time? :)

Hun, the right time is whenever you are ready to tell them.

I waited until I was four months gone before I got the guts to tell my mother and sister. I thought they would think I was crazy because I was 35 and my son was 10 years old.

Thank you! I just found out 2 days ago and I have taken 4 tests since then and they all show 2 lines just one is lighter than the other but I took one again this morning and it is darker than yesterday... I know I am pregnant.. I feel it I just do not want to jump the gun I want to tell people but I just want to make sure it isn't too soon :confused:

In that case, you may want to wait until after your first prenatal appointment so that the doctor can properly diagnose you as pregnant.

Some people tell people the moment they get a positive on a test(like me and hubby hah) and some people wait until they are safely past the 3 month mark, in case of miscarriage. Some people wait until they start showing. Some wait for a special moment in time if its close enough, such as Christmas, anniversary or a soon to be grandparents birthday.;0) Its entirely up to you and what you feel most comfortable with.

Thank you! I want to tell my parents so bad because Sunday was grandparent day and I bought them a card etc. now that I definitely know I want to give it to them. I just want to make sure I am not out of my mind!:p

Well, if you got a positive, the odds are highly in your favor that you aren't crazy hah, hormonal definitely(if not yet, you will be soon), but not crazy;0) if you have doubts, get a second test done, but a false positive is really very rare. Congrats on the news, and have fun telling them. You could put the test in with the card like some people like to do, but something about peeing on a stick and giving it to someone always threw me off. Haha. Maybe just a picture of it. HAH, but still... I don't know, someone suggested that to me, and the thought of my very proper daddy seeing something I peed on to find out I was pregnant hah yeah, it was too much for me. ;0) but that's just me

I told my parents and in-laws the same week I found out I was pregnant and I was only 4 weeks along. I just couldn't wait to tell.
I didn't know how to tell them so I went and bought a bib that said "I love my grandma" and one that said "I love my grandpa". I wrapped the bibs in two separate bags (one for my dad and one for my mom). When my parents opened them I didn't have to say a word they knew exactly what it meant and they were thrilled.
My husband went a different route when telling his parents. We are painting a house we just bought and he said, "We were thinking of painting the baby's room in a teal." His parents took forever to catch on but eventually they did.
Personally I like the way I told my parents better. My parents are keeping the bibs to give to the baby when he or she is born.
If you want to tell your parents and family tell them. You can ask them to keep it a secret from others until you are ready. They will feel important carrying around such a big secret!

We told my hubby's family right away, but they live out of state and we don't see them much. We waited to tell my parents until I had my first ultra sound. We thought I was 7 weeks, but was only 5. We gave a picture of the u/s in a baby album to both my mother and father. They were elated! Lots of tears! It's all up to when you feel the time is right. I would suggest having your first prenatal visit first, but if you don't want to wait that long, don't. Congrats!

It is up to you when you are ready to let everyone know. I waited until I was 12 weeks to tell both my in laws, my parents and close friends and relatives... I didn't tell my co-workers, distant relatives until I was about 16 weeks. Best of luck to you, and congrats!
