Congratulations! I agree with many of the posters above. I agree that you should wait until she is at least 3 months pregnant before telling anyone. My wife and I didn't consider ourselves "with child" until we were through the first trimester. I also agree that there is not a "best way" to tell one's parents. My wife and I sent our parents "Congratulations on becoming grandparents!" cards. We didn't tell them anything else. They were very shocked and confused (in a good way). I wouldn't recommend that communication strategy in your case.

Finally, if you haven't already, both of you should get in to see a obgyn as soon as possible. Again, congratulations!
