Coming out, even to accepting people, is always an intense experience that involves letting people see a very personal part of you. It's normal to feel vulnerable and nervous about it. Also, family is an important part of your life and you might be subconsciously fearing their judgement even if you know they have no issue with it. If you want, you can come out to someone else first, if there are people you feel more comfortable talking about it, so you know there will be someone standing by your side when you'll finally decide to comes out to your family, if you want to.
