DH was still sleeping and I woke him up and shakingly, showed him the sticks. He was still groggy and couldn't really comprehend what was going on and I had to say it out loud, "I'm PREGNANT!". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant/page/2#post-257845 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 09:04:19 +0000 plaidpants 257845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sat on the bathroom floor for a while and tried not to hyperventilate! Then I woke up my husband to tell him. It was 4am so he was excited, but confused and sleepy. Then he went right back to sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-257734 Tue, 14 Aug 2012 07:24:15 +0000 hellobeeboston 257734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: we also got our positive on valentines day!</p> <p>I told HB first!

So glad you've had a healthy pregnancy!</p> <p>I couldn't believe I got a positive so I tested with the second test that came in the box and got so nervous that I actually dropped it in the toliet -_- but it was late at night and I couldn't run to the store. I then texted my best friend and we talked for awhile but I was really excited and nervous that it wasn't a true positive. I felt like I saw something that wasn't there so I told DH after I picked up another test and it came up positive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253999 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 23:25:28 +0000 stargal 253999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: thats the sweetest story, you def have to show your LO that video one day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253975 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 22:22:09 +0000 PrincessBaby 253975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a nervous wreck it was a 3rd chemical pregnancy in a row, so I freaked out and kind of pretended like it didn't happen.</p> <p>I waited a week to test again, and DH and I decided that if it was "still there," then we'd get excited because my 2 chemicals had "gone away" within a week after getting the BFP.</p> <p>So when I finally got the nerve to test again, DH was working offshore, so I videoed me waiting for the result *just in case* it turned out to be a positive. When "Pregnant" popped right up, I basically cried my face off on the video - I couldn't believe it was sticking! I sent the video to DH so he could be a part of it:) I still get REALLY emotional watching that video. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253790 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 20:05:35 +0000 oahujeni 253790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made my husband look at the test first then I cried. It was a happy/shocked cry because I didn't believe it would happen on the first try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253779 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 20:03:27 +0000 LuLu Mom 253779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ran out of the bathroom for DH and said there is two lines....right!? And made him go get a digital test to go again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253772 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 19:54:22 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 253772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started panicking and breathing really heavy and then called my BFF, sped over to her house, and took another test there. Then I called my older/wiser BFF (she has four kids of her own) and told her the news and then started bawling my eyes out.</p> <p>I didn't tell DH until 10 hours later or so because this was a major surprise and I was afraid of him being mad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253738 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 19:38:18 +0000 Minnie_Girl 253738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Same here...tears of terror!

Then woke up DH and told him. Again tried to go back to bed, no luck, so I got on HB. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253691 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 19:25:41 +0000 Shimmer 253691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cried, woke DH up, and shoved the stick in his face. Haha. I had plans for telling him in a cute way, but it totally didn't work out that way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-the-first-thing-you-did-when-you-found-out-you-were-pregnant#post-253687 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 19:25:18 +0000 Tidybee 253687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Burst into tears.
