Long post alert:

I have been unable to conceive a child since I intentionally tired starting back in 2008 ish. I went through numerous doctors, fertility treatments, being poked, diagnosed (PCOS) an many more things. Destroyed my marriage leading to divorce.

Fast forward to 2017 after taking the next step to <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> I was able to conceive a child with my at the time significant other. We have a beautiful 3 year old daughter.

Our relationship was not a pretty one and I decided to leave the narcissistic emotional manipulative and toxic relationship in 2020.

Now here I am writing this post because the guy that I have been seeing for around 6-7 months has no idea (yet) but I found out today I am PREGNANT!!! 🙀🙀 I have been late on periods before because of PCOS and always a negative test so I thought today was the same but nope 3 test later it’s POSITIVE!

He is 11 years my senior has an adult daughter and about to retire from 20 years of service with the Army. We have talked future stuff but never talked about marriage or kids.. he and I have known each other for 6 years and I know if other relationships he has been down for marriage and kids, but we haven’t talked about it...

Tomorrow I will tell him the news... I’m about 6 weeks along based off what doctors is guessing.

- how do I tell him? Make it cute?? Do it like a bandaid and just rip it off (“hey I’m pregnant”) ??

Not to mention I am secretly wondering what he will think feel say....

I never thought this day would come where I would conceive considering at least 17 years of my life I have had unprotected sex (sorry if that offends or is TMI) ...
