Postponing telling OH about +test?

[Caitlin991]

Second month of ‘trying but not trying’ and I’m testing positive.
we have a lot going on right now & my husband has an important interview at work at the beginning of August.
would it be crazy to wait to tell him about the pregnancy until after the interview, to help him keep a clear head, or is it cruel?

I personally couldn't not tell and I felt unwell from the start so would have been hard to hide. And we're being realistic and not getting too excited at this stage (9 weeks) - a long way to go.

I feel absolutely fine currently, but I’m only 3weeks+3 (no idea how I’m testing + already!). I have no symptoms throughout my last pregnancy so crossings my fingers and toes it’ll be the same this time.
I just want to give him the best chance of nailing his interview. It’ll give me a chance to set up a nice little announcement too. I just don’t want him potentially resenting me for knowing for 2 weeks more than him 🤦🏼‍♀️.

I think only you know how DH will react. I knew mine would find it odd that I hadn't told him straight away. They'll always be other stuff going on in life.

You know him best. But tbh this is the sort of thing I would do. I think my DH would be surprised if I managed to keep it to myself though! 😂

To be honest he’s pretty chilled & wouldn’t mind either way.
I think I’ll order my son a ‘big brother’ T-shirt to announce with and see how I’m feeling when it arrives.
I feel weirdly in denial about this pregnancy, like I can’t possibly be pregnant, or it won’t progress..idk, just hoping it’s not a premonition..

Up to you, I was supposedly infertile so when a faint line popped up I shouted my DH to check if he thought there was a line there. He said there definitely was a line there, but he was running late for a meeting with senior managers so he unfortunately had to go 🙈🙈.
