Before I got pregnant, I had many thoughts on how to tell my husband that I'm pregnant.
I watched several videos on YouTube and checked many women's pregnancy vlog just to get some ideas.
Friday night the 27th, my husband encouraged me to take a pregnancy test, and I told him I would do it the next morning which is Saturday morning the 28th.
He was still in bed when I woke up on Saturday.
I kinda did it secretly because I was not sure if it was going to be positive or negative.
I've had too many negative results and I wanted to keep it low-profiled if it was negative again,
just so I didn't have to go through "that's okay we'll try it again next time."
Also, if it showed positive, of course I want to surprise my husband in some special way.
So, I took the test quietly and did not say anything afterwards.
Three minutes later, the result showed positive.
POSITIVE!!!
I was so excited that I t to do.
I ared at the result for a while and finally smiled at myself in the mirror.
But I would say that I was more relived than thrilled when I found out I am pregnant.
Mostly because that we've been trying to conceive for so long (about 8 months), and we started to worry that if we have infertility issue.
But anyways, we are pregnant :)
My husband woke up later, and I knew he wanted to ask, but he didn't.
I know he didn't ask because I didn't say anything, and he knew that might be because the result is negative.
He was being very sweet and thoughtful not to ask me anything if I didn't want to tell.
So I kept it that way for the whole day.
(And he later said he was dying to know the result the whole time.)
Earlier this year, I bought a card with the word "baby" all over the cover and the back on the card in different pastel colors, like pink, blue, yellow, and green.
As soon as I saw it, I knew it's the right card to give my husband to let him know we're pregnant.
I stuck the pregnancy test result inside, and simply wrote "Congratulations! You are a dad now!"
I gave it to him later that night, telling him that I thought of him when I saw this card.
He was a bit confused and didn't relate the card to the pregnancy test.
As soon as he opened the card, he was like "Finally!"
Yup, the exact reaction I have predicted, though I kinda hoped he would be like "Oh baby, are you really?" with tears, hands shaking with excitement and all that.
He also felt more relived than excited at first, I know.
I don't blame him because he was a bit upset that I was disappointed every time I saw a negative result.
I know how much he has to take seeing me taking the ovulation test and taking my temperature.
But, finally, the universe heard us, and granted us a baby:)
I'm very blessed to have this little thing growing in me.
We love you :)
