I know there is an inyan about not telling anyone about the pregnancy in the first trimester because there is still a high possibility of miscarriage ch”v but I don’t know the source. I would tell my parents after that first trimester but didn’t tell anyone else until the 6th or so. We definitely didn’t tell any due dates because of what Midwest mentioned above, but not because people around me would worry, more because they became really irritating. Every time I made a call to family I would hear, “oh, I thought maybe you were calling from the hospital”, “gosh are you still waiting?”. Patience is sparce in those last days (weeks) so the barrage drove me nuts.
