Just found out I'm pregnant again

Hi, I'm new here!

Just found out I'm pregnant yesterday and I dunno what my reason for the post is I just have a few mixed feelings about things (but mostly I am over the moon!)

I haven't told my OH yet as a couple of weeks ago we had a massive argument and he told me he didn't want a baby (due to how he feels about his capabilities as a father - he's suffers with mental health). But if I was to get pregnant he'd make it work.

I also don't want to tell him cause I had a miscarriage in January and I don't want anyone else to know cause in a way I sort of want to block it, i.e. not get excited about anything and telling him will cause us to talk about things and start planning. Hope that makes sense!

I also thought it might be nice to tell him on Fathers Day! But having said all that I'm so desperate to tell him! Should I just tell him?

Another factor is that since the miscarriage I've been suffering with BV and thrush every month and lots of sex hasn't been helping that! I was at the doctors a couple of weeks ago and at that point I was during the 2ww and so she didn't want to treat me in case I was pregnant. Because of that I was convinced I wouldn't be pregnant but now that I am I'm concerned it could affect things, especially after I already miscarried. I'm at the doctors on Wednesday so obviously I will tell them.

I think it’s pretty common to get thrush in pregnancy and your gp will discuss best treatment options with you.

You should follow your instincts on whether you should tell dp the news sooner or later. However, as your dp has conflicted feelings about being a parent I think it will be a bit tone deaf to break the news on Father’s Day.

All the best.

Wouldn’t worry about the thrush side of things. I actually commented on another post there that I have been riddled with it from I was 4 weeks and the GP has prescribed a pessary every time plus canestan cream. Congratulations on your pregnancy! I think it’s lovely telling him on Father’s Day and also gives you a little bit of time and reassurance as the pregnancy progresses x
