Congratulations Everything will be fine, it will never be the "perfect" time! Happy and healthy 9 mos!

Oh and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to wait to tell DH either. It can still be an anniversary gift even if its a few days early. Pinterest probably has some cute and simple ideas about how to tell him (if that's your thing).

Thanks! I just came back from the doctor and they confirmed I am indeed pregnant. And I already have my silly plan on how to tell him:

We are huge Star Wars geeks, so I found printable art for a card on Etsy that has Darth Vader on the front and says You Are My Father.

Congratulations When we decided to have a baby and were lucky enough to get pregnant right away, I almost wished we'd gotten started sooner since I couldn't wait to meet the baby. You'll be amazed at how long 9 months is

Oh I bet! The suspense will be even worse because H absolutely does NOT want to know the sex of the baby (we've discussed before). He says it's one of the few surprises we have left in life, which I think is sweet. Which means I can't know the sex either because I am the world's WORST liar. So it's not even as if I can pass the time buying cutesy girly things or fun boy things, just some essential gender-neutral stuff.

Congrats on the pregnancy.

I think it's a bad idea to not share this news with him right away. I'd would be really hurt if my spouse knew something like this and didn't share it with me because they wanted to surprise me. I don't think sharing it today diminishes anything.

Yeah, I've decided to tell him tonight or tomorrow. I don't think my H would be hurt if I waited a week, but I just don't think I could wait that long

Oh yay!! It's official! That's a super cute way to tell him!

Congrats!
Good luck on waiting to tell your H, that will take a lot of will power!
I am sure everything will work out

Great update!

Congratulations!  I'm glad your H is excited.  My H was there for both positives.  I could not have kept it from him for one second.

H&H9 to you!

Yay!
