@missybear: I am sorry if you thought some of us weren't supporting you, I don't think that was our intention. However, I think most of us don't understand waiting days to tell to him. If you know that he would be ok with you waiting, that's great, but your post is titled ….when to tell hubby? Which I think a few of us thought you weren't telling him out of fear or worry for his reaction. I wish you the best of luck!

@septca: I agree with you, I'm having a hard time following.
Good luck, and congrats on your pregnancy.

I completely understand why you're waiting, and as you say - at the end of this week the busyness will end which means you two can focus on the news! Good luck for when you do tell him! Hope you stick around these boards

I keep checking back here to see if you've gotten the chance to tell him yet. I hope that he is happy and supportive when you tell him. I think if I were in a similar position I would plan to wait and tell him when we could talk...but would actually blurt it out at the first inopportune moment.

Yeah, I read back on my original post and am not sure what I was even asking for, and it's very confusing. I guess I just wanted everything to be "perfect" and it already felt so out of control that I wanted to the best I could with what I had. I have just been trying to figure out a cute way to tell him, and was just asking if it was ok to wait a couple days while I figured that out.. like, I'm not late for my period yet, and want to find a cute way to tell him, and is it ok for me to wait a couple days, plus since Ive had a chemical, I guess id like to wait a couple days too.. that sort of thing. Which is not at all what my post even sounded like.
And now its turned into this big deal and just makes me feel like I'm the worst wife ever everytime I log on, and I wish there was a way I could just delete this thread.
Sorry for posting the least useful post ever, and I guess I'll just stick to a board instead of posting my own threads. Clearly pregnancy brain kicks in immediately and I can't seem to get my point accross.
I really do appreciate the time you all have taken in your replies, and am sorry if it was a waste of your time. Thanks again.

@missybear: You aren't a horrible wife - we all do what's best for our marriage. Hey @MrBee: can you help a girl out - I think she wants to close this thread.
You can always count on @MrBee to help you with anything. Him and his wife run the show and they are really on top of things.
ETA: It might should be "he and his wife." Dr. Google is great at medical advice, but doesn't seem to be very fruitful with my grammar questions.
Also, a fun follow-up thread might be to post a question asking for ideas on how to tell! Don't stop being active because of one tough thread. I promise you will feel the love.

@missybear: How did you DH react when you had the chemical? Could you gauge what his reaction might be to this pregnancy based on that?

I don't think anyone was being snarky. I think they were just answering your question. I'm actually a little surprised how kind of out of hand this thread got.
Congrats on being pregnant and good luck telling your hubs. Whatever you do... don't stress too much on it.
I told my hubs over the phone when I got my BFP with LO and he was super happy. I didn't even think about making it special at all!

@missybear: I know a lot of people are giving you grief over not telling him but I found out on a Mon and didn't tell my husband till the Thurs. We were in the process of moving he was staying with friends and I was with my parents an hour away. I wanted to tell him in person and while I could of managed to see him sooner if would of been difficult with what was going on. He wasn't mad at me or even bothered. You know your husband and you have the right to tell him how you like, as long as you do tell him Do it your way and make it special.
