So I've just found out I'm pregnant! Now what?!

[whatsinthebagangelos]

Hi all
it's our first month of trying, AF due tomorrow but this morning I just had a feeling that I should test. Rummaged in bag of cheapy internet tests and Poas. And got a faint positive! Am all tingly and in shock I think! Also not quite suite I believe it...

My next issue is that I have just husband goodbye as he's gone to work then he's going straight out with friends after work, staying at one of their houses tonight then going to work tomorrow. So I now won't see him until tomorrow evening!!! He doesn't know I've tested as I've been convinced AF is on the way as had all my usual pmt symptoms. Have also not wanted to present as a ttc obsessive(although i secretly have been!)Plus it's our first month and we haven't been getting our hopes up etc etc. so should I save it for him to get home tomorrow night or call him and try and get him to come home at some point before? He will be thrilled I know...

Also I just want to apologise for my over excitement and wish everyone Ttc the best of
luck.

Sure not suite damn iPhone!

Congratulations!

It's a tough one but atm it's your secret to tell or not. That would kind of make me want to hold on to it. :)

Congratulations! Gosh i couldn't wait that long to tell him! Could you tell him to pop home first as you need to talk? X

Thanks for your reply the one. At the moment this is my face so I think I will do another test tomorrow just to make sure and tell him tomorrow when he get's back. I am awful at patience so this will be a challenge for me, but I want it to be special. Thanks for your advice. Sorry for typos and grammar issues, am a good speller but my phone thinks it knows best!

Thanks chips! I could get him to come home but it's a long drive and he will question me as to why!

congratulations :)

my dh had just left for work when i tested, i sent him a pic of the test and he then rang me, it wasn't our first though so maybe that may make a difference to you, im sure he'll be thrilled either way :)

Or if I say we need to talk he'll panic that it's something awful!

Well I'm a terrible speller and one of the people grateful for autocorrect!!

It will be nice to tell him face to face when he doesn't have to rush off and you can be together. I don't know if you need to take another test though. I don't think you can get a false positive even if it is very faint. :)

Awh, congrats! Happy Sat to you!! I think it would be nicer to tell him in person, so can you steel yourself to wait? Have a nice day pampering yourself, shopping or go and buy and baby magazine/ book as a treat so you don't feel deprived!!!

Thanks all you lovely lot who have replied so promptly! I knew I could count on you! And for your "congratulations" it doesnt feel real! I will take your advice and wait for him to get home tomorrow. We are then heading out to my parents in the evening so will be sitting there with secret grins I think! Thanks again everyone

Congratulations! :) Weird feeling isn't it? We got dd1 on the first month, same circumstances really. I did a cheapie test at about 5am. Then picked up a digital on the way to work and did it in the toilets at work! Was bouncing around all day caught between excitement and terror. Didn't want to tell him over the phone. Got home and the bugger sent me a text telling me he'd be back late as he was finishing off something. I nearly exploded.

Try and get him to pop back for a bit. You'll never last till tomorrow night :o

Congrats hun!!!

I'm in the same boat. Wasnt even trying, went on hols for 2 weeks. Came back Thurs and did a test as I didnt feel 100% and got a BFP!!!

I'm still in shock!!! I sent DP a pic of the preg test as soon as I did it.

Good luck with telling him. xxx

I agre, wait to tell him but have a lovely day today. Go look at some baby stuff. Buy a nice cake. Sit in the sun and dream. You and dh have been lucky. Enjoy it.

Thanks both. Have had a lovely day with friends and it still doesn't feel real. I know how lucky I am that it's happened so quickly, best of luck to you all in TTC x

Hi
I also found out yesterday I'm pregnant :)
Good luck. Hope it all goes well.

congrats op so what did dh finally say :)

Congrats OP and Perfect

Hi all. He came home this morning before going back to work.

I just showed him the test and he grinned and kept saying 'really?' over and over. It was lovely .

I was fit to burst so very glad he knows now!

And congrats to you too perfect! Exciting times ahead for us both!

Another one here who got a positive on a cheapie test today, waiting to do a clear blue one tomorrow before i get too excited though! First month of trying too! Think I'm in shock to be honest

Congrats to you all

Cheese congrats to you too!
OP - that's lovely. It's very exciting especially with the first one :)
This is going to be our second one and it also happened in the first month of trying :)
I still need to get my head around it because I didn't think it would happen so quickly.

Cheese and OP - I think we should start a 'Due in early Feb' thread :)

Hope all goes well for both of you.

Hello,

Congrats to those who also took test yesterday! I foolishly bought two very cheap home bargain tests, one of which was vaguely positive and the other the line went horizontal instead of vertical?! I ended up rushing to tesco before they shut and buying another and it was a definite positive! I had a similar dilemma though I didn't know whether to tell my husband before he went out for the evening but I couldn't keep it in! I'm a newbie to mumsnet I've only just joined but am hoping to chat to lots of you, I already have so many questions and trying not to get too excited!

Hi tinker, congrats! Come and join us on the due in feb thread x
