When should I tell my husband??

Back story.

I got a faint positive today. I went to the doctor and she confirmed it was indeed a positive test.

5ish months ago I had an ectopic they removed my left Fallopian tube and sent me on my way. My husband was as supportive as he could be.. but just didn’t understand how or why I was so heartbroken. He did try. But kind of blamed me for being so obsessive about taking multiple tests and thought I had jinxed it. (No hate) it’s just the way he is.

Two months passed and I missed a period. So I tested and I got a vvvfl, the more tests I took the lighter they got.

I started spotting and eventually miscarried..

confirmed it with my Gp and I had a chemical. (A loss very early on)

This morning.. a month after my chemical and 4 days before expected AF. I just had a feeling and decided I would test.

And there they were! 2 lines.

I know if I tell my husband before I confirm with ultrasound (in approximately 2 weeks)

He will just feel like it will probably be another loss and won’t really be excited at all which will kinda kill my joy.

I don’t blame him. Because this will be our 4th loss all together, so he won’t want to get his hopes up..

Anyway.. my question is. Should I keep it to myself and be quietly ecstatic. Or tell him when he gets home and risk him putting a damper on my joy.

Obviously. I want to tell him so bad. But I know he will say “ aw it’s so early, your probably not pregnant” blah blah. And if I waited to tell him until after the ultrasound. It will be a bit hard for him to say “aw your not pregnant.”

This post makes him seem like a real grump. He’s not for the most part. He just knows how upset I get when we lose a baby and doesn’t want to have to deal with me being sad.
