Breaking the news

Sooo I found out that I’m pregnant August 1st. (I was 5 days late or 19 days past ovulation if my calendar was right.)

My doctors appointment isn’t until the 19th and I haven’t told anyone yet. I want to tell my boyfriend, but we’re long distance and I’ll see him this week, so I thought it’d be better in person. This was unexpected so I’m nervous about how to go about breaking the news and his reaction. We both want kids, but we imagined it a few years from now. I’m in total shock and it doesn’t really feel real yet.

How should I tell him? I wrote a letter in case I start crying (lol more like when), but I don’t even know how to start the conversation. Help. Lol
