How did you tell your husband your pregnant after a miscarriage?

Question

I won’t know for a few days and I don’t think it’s going to happen this month but it has me wondering how I should tell him this time around. Any cute ideas? Our miscarriage was our first pregnancy.

Answer

I had been testing early with cheap strips and kept sending them to my hubby to see if he saw anything. One day after work and a 4 hour urine hold, i took a frer by myself and got a faint, but definite line. After he got home from work, he was discussing how his mom had news to tell us. We called her and it was something menial. After we got off the phone and i told him i had news too and pulled the test out of my pocket! He cried, I cried and it was a cute moment. We were cautiously optimistic after miscarrying 4 months prior. Our rainbow baby was born happy and healthy on 1/15/19!!

Our first pregnancy ended in MC. I went to my appointment while he was at work.. he asked how it went.. so I had told him about the baby passing. He replied “are you fucking serious?!” I wish I wasn’t serious. I put off trying for a bit. I told myself I’m never putting myself through that. September 2017.
Fast forward. Was at work feeling awfully tired.. 3-4 days before my period. I had given up that month. I got off at 11 pm. Took a test expecting a negative. Walked away for 5 minutes.. Come back and a faint line. I was in disbelief.. (all the way until my ultrasound.) 
That night I got the faint. I took 2 more after holding urine in for 3 hours.. Still positive. so, I taped the strip to a paper.. and wrote something along the lines of “2 guard dogs coming may 2019.” 
His response was the best. Since he’s always seen very faint lines that “wasn’t there.” According to him..😂
This time he said.. “wait! Is this what I think it means?! That’s what it means?! I can actually see those lines 😂” 
I told him first. I was scared of a MC.. im nearly 28 weeks now with his “little dude.” My dog literally looked shocked & happy. I recorded it.. and my dog had his mouth open. 
Sorry for the long post!

Answer

I miscarried my first and second pregnancies. Currently 5 weeks pregnant with my third pregnancy, first baby!
The first time, I made a huge announcement gift for him with a onesie and lots of baby stuff.
The second time we actually took the test together the day my period was due (it was at night). We were cautiously excited, but I miscarried 2-3 weeks later.
This time, I FELT pregnant. Even before I ovulated, I FELT PREGNANT! I could not explain it. So, on Feb 3rd I took a test and we looked at it together. There was a super vvvvvvvvfl. We were like, "Meh, it's early. Maybe it's nothing!" Then I took another and another and another and yeah... That line got darker fast! 
Hoping for a sticky little bean due October 18th! Again, we are cautiously excited. We are waiting for our first ultrasound at 9-10 weeks before we even think about telling anyone. Since we miscarried our first two, we want to see a heartbeat and know our baby is ok before telling anyone!

My husband told me lol! He knew I was taking a test and as soon as I went, he jumped in the bathroom and grabbed it and ran out. I was pissed 😝
