Unexpected surprise

Monday I realized my period was a week late... so I took a test as I’m normally very regular with being on the pill... I wasn’t expecting for the positive to pop up almost instantly.

And the guy I’m seeing we’ve only been seeing each other for about 6 months... so I was freaking out not knowing how he would react. We both want kids, but in the future when we’re a bit more ready.

Well that night I very nervously told him... wanting his opinion and what he’d like to do/want me to do the situation... he kept telling me it’s up to me and he’ll support me either way... not what I wanted to hear!! As much as I don’t want to abort as we’re adults and know there’s a possibility of pregnancy, as well as knowing I want kids someday, idk how I would live with myself if I did that... on the other hand I didn’t want to be doing it on my own and having a kid with no father in the picture, so I wanted to know what he wanted and to take that into consideration.

The next day we talked about it more, and I was scared to tell him I didn’t want an abortion and don’t feel right about it, because I didn’t want him to feel trapped or anything. Come to find out he didn’t want to tell me he doesn’t agree with abortions, as he views it as murder (doesn’t matter that it’s not complete yet, it’s still a person is what he said) but didn’t want to make me feel bad about it if that was what I wanted.

So here we are, not completely sure what we’re doing, but we’re doing it and we’re going to make it work. My first appointment is on the 15th when I’ll be almost 7 weeks (live an hour from the doctors and already had another appointment that day). He wants to come with me which I am completely ok with, and glad to have the support. Although he keeps asking me if I’m certain I’m pregnant, and how certain, how accurate are those home tests.... I have my moms support in it, as well as his dad is super excited (bf is his only kid so it’ll be first grand baby).

I’m not sure how this will work, but it will. And some of the things he says I just know he’ll be a good dad. “A kid can’t grow up without an old man” “I want a boy, but if it’s a girl, she’ll be the cutest little princess around” “why wouldn’t you want to know the gender, for buying stuff and for the baby shower” looking at getting crib and some things my mom still has from her youngest and he says “while other then like car seats and stuff will have to be new so it’s not expired”

Im beyond lucky to have his support in this 💕
