OMG?! Pregnancy mentioned...

I just got a POSITIVE pregnancy test!!!!!!  I cannot freakin believe it!  My period was three days late (which my period IS NEVER LATE) so I bit the bullet and took one.  BAM! POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  who says miracles cant happen!?  For those that don't know, we have been trying for 2 years and were diagnosed with Male Infertility in September.  How do I tell DH?!  I have 5 hrs til he gets home, and I always thought I'd be the gal to stick the stick in his face, but this is SO out of left field that I want to do something nice for him!

Re: OMG?! Pregnancy mentioned...

  • Congratulations!!!  That's very amazing news!  As far as telling DH goes, I have no idea.  When I got my positive, I was home alone, but just sat around in shock, then handed my DH the test when he got home from work.

  • Congrats!!!!!!!  I am very happy for you!! 

    Hmmm I have no clue how you should tell him.  I felt the same way when I found I was having twins.  I ended up just handing him the U/S because I was flipping out too much to have a grand idea.  I think no matter how you tell him, it will be a moment the both of you will never forget.

  • Congrats!  I would be too excited to follow through with any planned announcement.  I might tape it to the front door, or email/text him a photo.

    I think I am going to do a spin off of this...the kiddos are napping, and I am sitting on the comp in DH's "man room."  Someone told me to put an "eviction notice" on the door to the room andput the due date as the date of eviction.  Ill post a pic when I do it, I am going to tie it into his favorite baseball team.

  • Wow! Congrats!!!  What about going out and buying a onesie for one of his fave teams?
  • Congrats!!!!

    Use a digital if you show him the test!  DH couldn't interpret the stick I showed him!

  • That is amazing.  You so deserve this.  This truely is a miracle.  I don't know what you should do for your husband.  When I got my positive DH was in the shower and I told him I didn't have my glasses on and he had to read it.  Either way, I'm sure he will thrilled!
  • Wow, I've got chills! Congrats!! Gives me some hope!
  • CONGRATULATIONS!!  I am beyond thrilled for you.  I have no creative ideas - I was so in shock with BFP #2 that I took a blurry phone pic of test (I was shaking) and texted him a pic saying "congrats, you have another one on the way".  SOOOOO anticlimactic I know.  LOL.
  • OMG Kel, that's wonderful news! I'm so happy for you!
