Got a BFP, not sure how I feel and DH isnt going to be happy

I've also posted on the pregnancy board.

My period was late and yesterday I did a Pg test and got a BFP. DH and I have discussed another child, we have 2 already 5 & 8 and he was very much against it although I was very keen. We agreed that we wouldnt have another child and concentrate on our relationship. Circumstances at the min are not great financially although we had DS when I was 21 so not great timing then either! I havent told him that I have done the test but did tell him yday that it was very late - he has said constantly I hope you aren't pregnant. A bit of background is that DH had an affair 3 years ago and we seperated for 9 months. We are now very much together and have a stronger relationship, I'm just so scared that he will take this news badly and leave as he has been texting me all morning to tell me to get a test and do it and that he is worried sick that it is going to be BFP. I asked him this morning if he loved me which he answered yes, I asked him if he would still love me if I was pg and he said yes but he really did not want another child. I know this may seem insensitive of me when there are so many people trying very hard to conceive, its just such a very very big shock to me. Part of me is so pleased but the rest is shocked/scared/worried about DH reaction. I had my mirena coil out earlier this year, been on Cilest pill since. I am due to be bridesmaid at my brother and SIL wedding next March, by my reckoning I will be around 7 months pg by then - I'm due to go for the first fitting on Thursday - do I tell them or not, I dont want them to pay any money when I know I wont be able to do it but then again as I am only 4/5 weeks I dont want it made public....

What a pickle I'm in .... Please help

Ah now Expat, I know he hasn't acted the way a husband should, but she has said time & time again she loves him.

When you love someone you try & understand why they are behaving the way they are & you try to make excuses for it, I know I don't agree with the way he has acted towards Hoggy & the wee one, but he is her dh & she has said she loves him.

Also, I know if he loved her the way a man should love his wife he wouldn't make her feel the way she does. But she is bound to have a bump now, if not yet, then quite soon. What hot blooded male wouldn't feel crap about telling his mates his wife was pg & he wasn't pleased.

Believe me, no man would respect his friend for saying his wife was pg & he didn't want the baby

Hog, I hope all is as well as it can be & you're taking care of yourself pet.

even if he did he wouldn't take on the truth: that he's a low life scumbag.

gigglewitch · 08/11/2007 21:18

looneytune · 08/11/2007 21:12

those hormones really are a bummer cos they make everything even more intense than it already is.

Are you off work now?

kindersurprise · 06/11/2007 17:11

Hi Hogwarts,

good to hear from you, hope you are ok.

AnybodyHomeMcFly · 06/11/2007 15:49

Hi Hogwarts
I am another of the many who have been following your posts and just thinking about you lots.
I think you are an extremely brave lady because if you weren't you would have let your H bully you into a termination when you weren't sure it was what you wanted. And you haven't done that so even when you are feeling so low and tired, never forget what a fighter you are.
The very best of luck in whatever you decide.

fireflyfairy2 · 06/11/2007 11:35

Thanks

Hope you're well xo

fulltimemum · 06/11/2007 11:26

My pic is in my profile, so Hogwarts if you know me & would rather I didn't post on here, or you know me & don't want to say who you are, that's fine.

Please let the others support you as much as they have been doing.
