BFP!!!!

Hello! I'm finally here!I I have been off bc for a year. Got my bpf this morning! I'm due on September 23! Now to brainstorm on telling my DH. Any ideas?! I was simply going to ask him what he is doing on September 23, then ask if he wants to be there for his child's birth. 

How did you tell  your DH?

eta: ha! So excited cant write bfp correctly :/

Congrats! I wish I could tell you I did something creative, but I was so excited I told him right away.

Congrats! I wasn't creative at all.  I took the test while DH was getting ready for work.  I left it on the counter and he actually looked at it to tell me the result!

Congrats!

I couldn't hold it in and sent him a pic of my HPT because I wasn't sure.

Hi, I also got my BFP on Sunday, my husband was on his way to work and I couldn't wait! Called him right away and told him. We only waited a day to tell everyone else in the family and posted to Facebook this morning! I am so excited but also very nervous....I heard more than half of first time pregnancy’s end in miscarriages.....should I be scared? or is there anything I can do to prevent one?

Congratulations!  My H works from home and I was pretty sure I wasn't pregnant, so I just took the test.  When it came up positive, H was on a conference call, I motioned for him to follow me.  We had a very quiet dance party celebration in the bathroom when he saw it.

Congrats!!

This was a surprise pregnancy for us, so I wanted to do something fun. I happened to be working from home the day I tested, so I ran out on my "lunch hour" and got an "I'm an awesome Big Brother!" shirt for DS. DH and I had plans for a dinner date that night, so I gave him the shirt then (DS was with my XH for his weekend) and said "Check out the shirt I got for DS. Think he'll like it"? He thought I got it as a joke until I showed him the pic on my phone of 4 positive HPTs. :)
