How should I tell DH?

I am a long time poster in hiding (sorry for the fake name) and I just found out I am pregnant. This won't be our first, but to say this is a surprise is putting it mildly. Because of reasons out of my control I wont be able to tell him until the morning, unless I teel him via text or over the phone and that isn't happening.......How should I tell him????

I want to say that you should tell him in person and not over the phone. So wait until tomorrow.

However I really don't think I'd be able to handle the wait! So I'd probably end up calling him!!

For us it was a huge surprise too. I wasn't sure how DH would react. I told him while he was in the shower hahaha

So did you tell DH? How did he take the news?

You know I think I told my DH over text...thinking about it. Lol...I took the test mid-afternoon, took a picture of it and texted it to him....and said "Does that look like a 2nd line to you?" Lol...

Thanks ladies! I was able to talk DH into stopping home quick last night because I thought i'd bust otherwise. Lol!!

I handed him the test in a ziploc bag. He starred at it for a while and then said what is this....i said you know what that is....he said but what is it. I said a PREGNANCY test with TWO lines on it and then he said what does this mean Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I just started laughing. He knew what it meant but needed to hear me say it. He seems to be handling it really well and doesn't seem half as in shock as I do.
