How I Told and Convinced Him I was Pregnant Again!

Daisy May
Announcing your pregnancy should be a precious moment, especially when it is to the farther-to-be. But in my case, telling the father-to-be that he was going to have a second child was down right hilarious.

My husband had taken the news of our first child very well. In fact, he had to break the news of my pregnancy to my mom. But we both had emotional support from his mom and step-dad and knew we wasn't alone in the situation.

When I got pregnant again, we were living far away from his parents and my mom. We were depending on each other just to make it through raising our baby and life in general. So telling him was a happy moment but I was nervous because of the situation.

I was probably about three months pregnant before I realized I was. Then I waited about a week or two before I had enough guts to tell him. But I finally told him in the kitchen right after supper. I hugged him and with a big smile on my face I broke the news. He asked if I was sure and I said that I was pretty sure. He acted happy about it. But the hilarity didn't begin until I had to convince him of it.

He wasn't totally sure that I was pregnant. He tried to think of every reason under the sun that would stop my menstruation. I was starting to show and he still wasn't positive even though I was, so we bought a home pregnancy test to prove it. The stick turned blue so quick! I was pregnant. Still he wasn't sure. The test could be wrong after all. So we bought another test and checked again before he finally conceded that I was pregnant.

Then the hard part came- telling his mother!
