DH would KILL me if I tested without him. Do you all test alone...without your DH present?
that is how my DH feels. he is very involved and wants to know when i know. we tested together the first time and will probably just test together next time around as well. i think surprising him would be fun but i think he'd be upset if we didn't find out together.
we tested every time together. i couldnt imagine testing without him!

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
I think I would just run up to him screaming and jumping up and down in excitement!
Ideally I would do something cute but I know that won't happen!

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
Last time, I was in the middle of brushing my teeth when the line came up (POAS first, the started brushing). I took the test, and shoved it in his face while I was still brushing with the other hand.
If I do get a BFP this month-- I think I will first start testing next Tues. DH told me last night he needs to be out of town for the night, so I am thinking maybe getting DD a big sister shirt or something for her to wear when he gets home. This is only if the timing works out and I do in fact get a BFP this month.

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
Dh is with me all the way!! I have been testing alone! He is waiting for me to make the announcement to him.
I thought about wrapping it up and giving it to him as a gift...But this is the greatest gift I could give him!!!
I would probably scream from the rooftop that the whole friggen town would know I was Preggo!!!

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
DH was home sick, very sick 103 fever.
I came home from work and POAS. I got a very faint line. I went into the bedroom and showed him. He told me I was crazy that he didnt see a line.
I posted on here and showed him all of your responses. This convinced him somewhat so he told me if I WAS pregnant we couldnt sleep together since he was sick 
Did not sink in until the digital the next day and then he was so happy.

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
I bought my SO a book ...what to expect when you're going to be a daddy. I've had it since September, hoping that every month will be the month I give it to him

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
My DH was with me at the DR office and we found out together.

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
Dh was at work and I happened to take a fluke test. When it came up with a faint positive, I had to take many more tests to make sure. I ran out and bought 2 sports onesies (for our favorite team), two bibs that said "I love my daddy" and a book called "Quarterback Dad." I put everything together in a shirt box and wrapped it. It was December 28th so I told him I forgot that I ordered him something for Christmas, so he had a gift when he got home. Of course he got stuck at work late, but the look on his face when he opened the box was priceless!!! I really wish I was able to capture his reaction on tape!

My cycle is so irregular that I end up testing every time - never know if I'm late or not. I don't want DH to think I'm crazy. He would just wait until CD35-40 before wanting to test. So, when I was pregnant last summer I knew and he wasn't even home. I told him when he got home. Our first pregnancy ended in m/c and our second was when we had our  . The first time I went all out - got a baby Yankees onesies, an "I Love My Daddy" bib and cute lollipops with a blue and pink baby on them. The second I was too nervous and just told him. The third pregnancy (this past summer) I was too nervous again and just told him, it ended in a m/c. So, the next time, I won't do anything, just too scared.  I hate that I can't have a fun way to tell him, but it's just so hard!

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
We're not TTC yet but I've got baby fever HARDCORE so I often think about how I would tell DH when we do finally get preggo. He told me he wants to be there when I test but I told him "you got to do all the fun things for the engagement and make it a surprise, so just give me this" in which is agreed! He says we're a long way off from TTC (we need a house first) but I'm looking forward to when that happens and having the support of you girls to keep me focused!

Re: How do you plan on telling DH (I know this has been done before)
I wanted to tell him in this "special" way. But honestly, when I POAS at 5am, I just screamed up the stairs, "DHHHHH (but I used his real name) get down here right now!! Hurry!" and I met him 1/2 way up the stairs and shoved the test in his face. He wasn't sure what I was showing him, but once he realized, he was so happy! Then for some odd reason, he wanted to  , but I told him no.
