Feeling guilty!

Me and DH have been ttc since May. I know that's not long in the scheme of things but each negative test adds to worries of something being wrong. I have taken lots of tests over the past few months as at times I've been convinced I'm pregnant!
DH is at work today, I'm due AF tomorrow and had one early test (Superdrug!) left from last month. I decided to take it, convinced I'm not pregnant due to a few cramps but got BFP!!!

I am so so happy but feel guilty I didn't share it with DH. It would have been great to share this moment but I was convinced it would be negative!

Congratulations! Flowers
Don't feel guilty I'm sure your DH will understand. What a lovely surprise for him when he gets home!

I did that when pregnant with DS, DH still brings it up 2 years later he was so upset. Sad

My advice is go and buy another test and when DH comes home test again saying you've got a "funny feeling." I know it's lying but you may run the risk of him being upset otherwise which might marr a very happy occasion.

Congratulations! Thanks

Congratulations! You know your DH best, but I can tell you that mine would have been delighted with a civilised 'I'm pregnant' greeting after getting in from work. What he has had (4 times now) is me waking him up at 5 am, waving a freshly wee'd on stick in his face, and saying 'look, open your eyes, I'm pregnant'. Then I've not let him go back to sleep as I've been too excited!

Don't feel guilty however you decide to tell him- it's such exciting news, let yourself enjoy every moment.

Thanks all, I picked him up from work with a gift of a baby version of his favourite band t-shirt and two positive pregnancy tests, he loved it!! He's thrilled and not at all annoyed, he said "it's not as though I missed the birth". So exciting!

Oh what a lovely way to announce it to him! Lovely end to a shift at work, congratulations x

I tested when I was home alone, not expecting to get a positive at all - so I was very shocked when I did!!

I rang my hubby and told him over the phone. There were about 5 long seconds of complete silence, then he said, "Bloody Hell!!"

Congratulations on your BFP!!

Great news that he isn't annoyed!

Congratulations!

I did a test while DH was at work as I was stressing and convinced I wasn't pregnant. Hated that it was a positive and he wasn't there. A few months later when I was testing again I made sure he was there.
