I told my dh

I planned to do something creative but I was so nervous about the pregnancy he knew something was wrong and wouldn't leave me alone until I told him. Oh well! My plan backfired I guess, but my dh is very happy we're expecting #3 and he said he knew anyways. I went to the ob for a blood test and they called and said I'm definitely pregnant and my beta number was 11,100 at 6 weeks 5 days, which I checked online and is within normal range. I don't know what the range is for twins at this stage but I really don't think it's twins again because I don't feel pregnant at all. Last time at this stage I was morning sick and very tired and bloated. This time I feel totally normal and I've even lost weight. Plus this time we didn't use fertility treatments although twins do run in my family, but it hasn't shown up in a few generations.

So it's official, and now that my dh knows everyone else knows too (it doesn't take him long to spread news), and I'm shopping for triple strollers and slings. Thanks for all your suggestions on triple strollers and links. I am not sure what I am going to buy. I may just start with a sling and work my way up from there. I also have to start planning a new nursery. Aye aye aye!

How neat! My hubby was happy as well, when I told him! I haven't seen my OB yet, but I do go on the 14th... I don't think I see him that day though, I think it is just the appt for sending me for blood work, getting information, etc... But soon after that is my OB appt.

 

You must feel so much better now that you have told him! Congratulations. I look forward to hearing how you are doing through your pregnancy!

 

I'm so glad you told him and got a positive response!! Now let all the fun begin!

 

Thanks! Congrats KYSweetheart! My ob didn't do the full exam - I just got bloodwork to confirm the pregnancy. I go back in for the exam in a few weeks. I can't believe I am doing this all again!

I used to joke that I wanted to check back into the hospital because they took such good care of me - I guess I'll be back there sooner than I thought!

 

You sound a lot less stressed out!! I'm glad he is excited & the stress isn't totally on you anymore!!

 

I am sure it is a big relief that you told him. So glad he is happy. Congrats again.

 

That is really great! I'm so glad that you told him and that he is one proud daddy!

 

YAY! Soooo glad you told him, you must feel so much better!

 

I am so glad he knows and is so happy!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!

 

You sound so much better than your last post. I'm glad you told him and even more glad that he was positive about it. Congrats!!!! And good luck!!!

How exciting now that everyone knows. I think it is hard to try and keep that a secret from your husband. I don't know how you lasted that long. I guess I am just not good at keeping secrets even if I wanted to try and plan it to make it special. But congrats on your new baby . i hope all goes well for you.

 

Yeah!!! Like other have said, you sound so much more positive! It is wonderful to share it with the person you love and see how happy he is! I am so thrilled for you!!!

 

Kristie, GOOD !! I am glad that it's out in the open... PHEW!!! Congratulations! I wish you the very best for you pregnancy!

 

I am so glad you told hom, and so glad is happy. Now for the fun part, waiting for the new addition. CONGRATS!!!! I'm jealous.

 

Im so glad he was happy too

 

Congratulations again! I wondered ow you would be able to keep such a big secret for so long. Glad DH was happy; I'm sure that's a load off your mind.

 

Congratulations! Good luck with three little ones!

 

WOW! Congrats!

 

WOW, Congrats! I'm glad your DH is happy!

 

I think that's fantastic - see, you worried about it for nothing - now you can just enjoy being pregnant - but...of course you have to let us know how it goes, and how many are in there...

 

Oh okay! So we are both in the same boat... very anxious, right??

When I go, I am going to tell them that I have no idea how far along I am, because I can't remember when my last period was, (LOL I can, really though) and see if they will schedule me a U/S quicker, LOL Just kidding... but I wonder if that would really work?

 

Sorry it took me so long to reply, my babies have been keeping me so busy all day long!!!

I am so happy for you and DH! This is definitely the best news of the day! You guys are going to be the cutest little family of 5!

 

Congratulations! I'm so glad everything worked out with telling your DH.

 

Yah thats great. I am glad you are all happy, keep us posted through out! x
