No congrats in order. A friend of mine is TTC and wants to plan ahead and think of a way to tell her DH when it actually happens.

My only baby is my BT in my avatar... for now anyway Chat Icon

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

I took a test early Sunday morning, he was still in bed. There was a very very faint line. I thought it was negative. When I went back to bed I told him I took a test but it was negative. Then when we got up I showed him. He said that looks like a line to me. I was going to the dr the next day for my annual appt so we decided we'd see what he said. DH went away for work that day (monday). Dr. did a blood test, I got the results on Tuesday. DH was away until Thursday night. We had talked about it before he left & decided that I couldn't tell him on the phone. But when I heard the results, I had to tell him. Plus then the dr wanted to see me the next day (wed.) to see how far along I was. He did the sono & I found out I was 9 weeks pg. There is no way I could wait until Thurs to tell DH I saw our little bean.

I woke him up at 6 am and showed him the "pregnant" on the test. He was so shocked and still 1/2 asleep. I was going to wait until he woke up but I was so giddy that I couldn't hold it in. Chat Icon

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

I wish ours was a good story but we had only had an M/C one cycle before so actually I was terrified I was pregnant and going to lose another baby.

I also just had oral surgery and had anesthisia and vicoden. So I was totally convinced the baby wouldn't make it.

We tested together and just held hands and said- pray, this one is ok!

It was actually very scary- but now that she is completely doing well after many tests, I am finally starting to get excited.

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

My husband was away in Boston when I found out. It was the first month we were trying and my period was late for about 4 days. I couldn't wait any longer so I went and bought a pregnancy test....and 3 more after that...somehow I didn't believe it because we had just started trying......so that morning that he was due to come back I did another test......but I got those that say "pregnant" and "not pregnant" since the other tests I've gotten had the lines and I wanted to be sure. I didn't even have to tell him one word. When he came into the house, I was standing in the middle of the living room. He must have seen the look on my face and started jumping and kissing me.....and he was so thrilled. I said how did you know?...I didn't even say anything.....he said the look on my face said it all.

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

I had tested the day before and got a BFN - I wasnt planning on testing - but I was in the bathroom - AF still hadnt shown up and hey - there was an extra test in the medicine cabinet. I took it - stared at it, not believing that it was positive - walked out of the bathroom - and DH ran right past me to use the bathroom to brush his teeth.

I told him while his toothbrush was in his mouth and his mouth was full of toothpaste.

When I think back on it, it was cute - but I was so surprised and excited that I couldnt imagine waiting to tell him.

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

I called him from work in between tests, told him - I bought a prgenancy test, and one came up positive, so I'm going to try again....

How would you feel if I AM pregnant?

He said - that would be cool!!!!

Very anti climactic, I know!

Re: Mom's to be... How did you...

I tested, got a BFP... went to Babies R Us... bought him a pink "I love my daddy bib" and a blue one, a frame that said I love my daddy, a book for Expectant Fathers and two pairs of booties, one pink, one blue... I wrapped it all with the positive tests (by then I'd taken like 3 to make sure..lol)... when he came home from work, I told him I bought him a present... he opened it and was shocked... he kept saying.. "are you serious, really??"... I started bursting out in tears...lolol.. hormones... and I snapped his pic cause I wanted to preserve the moment!!
