Currently 6 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 (pregnancy number 5).
After a couple of years with no luck, we'd sort of given up and decided we would stick with one child.
I've not been on birth control for ages so I guess we were aware it was possible but after so long it seemed unlikely and I think we both saw the value and benefit of only having one child especially as she's getting older (she's 4 now).
I actually asked DP if he did want to try for another and he said no but here I am - 6 weeks along and still haven't told him.
I've known for nearly 2 weeks and have told myself that once I'm past 6 weeks (when id previously miscarried I'd tell him).
He won't be angry but I doubt he'll be delighted - I'm not feeling overly delighted either but I think that's just the shock of it!
Have booked an early scan for this weekend to confirm that the pregnancy looks viable and then I'll tell him - just didn't want to scare him by announcing only to have another mc .
I'm also worried about birth defects and multiple births - I'm 37 so at higher risk and twins run in both our families. I also worry about the age gap - DD will be 5 when baby is due so very different stages throughout their lives although DD would love a baby sister (not too keen on a brother).
I'm sure he'll be supportive but I think we'll both have to come to terms with our lives changing significantly.
