With our first he had a big smile on his face when i showed him the test and he said "see i told you you would be" or something along those lines.

With our second he was drunk and i tested at like 1am. lol. So he half woke up but it didn't really register and he just went back to sleep. I showed him the test again later on that morning and he was really happy. Can't remember exactly what he said though.

Both babies were planned.]]> Thu, 31 Mar 2011 09:22:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296446&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296446 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : Hehe some interesting reactions...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296369&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296369 Author: rachelsea

Hehe some interesting reactions in here

First time I was pregnant (m/c) I tested at 5am and it was positive, so went and woke DH up and said "I got a positive pregnancy test" and he jumped for joy and made me ring my mum (yes at 5am lol).

2nd time (DD), I was itching to test but knew DH would laugh at me for testing so early (10DPO) so waited till he'd gone to work, and got the shock of my life to have a positive so early!! I tried ringing his cell but he was driving and didn't answer, so I decided to wait till after work. But it accidentally came out in email during the day he was excited at first but then worried because of the previous m/c (as was I!)

This time, he wanted me to test (again 10dpo, but it was night time) because I had sore boobs lol but I didn't want to test yet. But he went out to get dinner and came back with a three pack of first response tests and said "do one now! Then if it's negative you can wait till later in the week" so I did one to shut him up and low and behold there were two lines, clear as anything and he was so excited he went and announced it to his workmates the next day, 5days before AF was due lol

Hrmmm.....the first time was with my ex-ex...there's a thread about it on here somewhere....it didn't go down so well (unplanned). It ended in m/c.
Second time was with the ex - I freaked cos we had only been together for 6 weeks when I found out. He was shocked as, but happy. Another m/c.
Third time he was happy but worried, although it was unplanned - another m/c.
Fourth time he wasn't even happy, because he was too worried, mainly about me, even though it was planned. Another m/c.
FIFTH time.....I peed on the stick at 8am the day my AF was due and didn't arrive (I always got it first thing in the morning) and rung him and said "guess what" and he said "you're pregnant". We were very happy this time, as I was under specialist care so we knew we were doing all we could. Then approx 3 weeks later when we found out it was twins...."you're sh*tting me" were his exact words....followed by "you're having me on". Apparently he nearly fell out of his digger LOL]]> Thu, 31 Mar 2011 00:10:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296341&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296341 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : #1 I finished worked and my period...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296332&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296332 Author: NovemberMum

#1 I finished worked and my period has not arrrived was due that day..I was going to wait a couple of days but me being me (impatient lol) I drove to the supermarket to buy a pregnancy test..got home peed on it..line came up about 30 seconds later..thought no it cannot be (it had only been our firstr month ttc).

I then phoned my husband at work and told him I was alittle impatient and took a pregnancy test and it looks like it is positive..cant remember what he said but he soundded happy.

#2 for some reason I had to test at 11pm at night (husband was already in bed) so drove to supermarket came back home peed on the stick and there was what I thought was a line but very very faint that you would almost thoughth you were imagaining it....went in and told my husband that I took the test and the line was veyr faint so would test again in a few days he was like ok .which I did ans sure enough a line this time much darker.]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 23:08:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296332&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296332 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : ROFL Kelly thats hilarious about...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296309&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296309 Author: Kels

With Tyler my DH text me back saying "thats awesome babe,thanks for telling me over text tho,not "

With Amelia I again tested and didn't tell him first (first person was actually BabyKatnz from here lol ,we had coffee that day ) but I had promised him that next time I would tell him,so I had to pretend that I thought I was UTD but didn't know for certain.
So I told him I thought I was and that I would do a test while he went to the supermarket,he got home and says "sooo have I knocked the b*tch up " in a lame gangster voice.
Then he said "ha,im the man,f*ck im good "

wasn't sure if his head would fit through the door.

with our first, it was a bit of a shock, we had only started trying less than 2 weeks before I took test. I was so nervous I got my friend to look at test and tell us. I just sat there in shock and DH got up and went out and bought a 3 pack of tests and made me do another 2 before he was sure. Then he was so excited.
With our second pregnancy he was really happy and giggly. Unfortunately that one ended in m/c
So with our third he was really blase, and didn't get excited until we were about 20 weeks.]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 19:18:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296144&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296144 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : Our first was IVF, so much as...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296033&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296033 Author: ginger

Our first was IVF, so much as you'd expect. Our second, it was actually me that was away with the fairies - he made me buy a test and do it (made me get a 3 pack too - what a waste of money ), I b*ggered around a half a day before doing it (obviously, I wasn't pregnant so no rush ) then I did it upside down and cheerfully announced he was wrong-burger, before realising that there were no lines at all (it was a pee in the cup one, and I stuck the stick in upside down ) ... so I b*ggered around for another day before doing another one that came up with 2 veeery clear lines. It took about another 2 weeks to sink in after that ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 16:48:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296033&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296033 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : Stunned mullet springs to mind...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296026&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296026 Author: caliandjack

With McKayla: He was sitting at the computer and I told him the test was positive and he said Oh and continued on with his things. Told him again and he said we will have to wait and see first. Tried to tell him it was different. And he said we should wait. (we had a few mc's before this.). He is the one that made an apointment with the Dr for us. But then two days later I start with bleeding and I got negative and he was the one that turned around and as positive and told me that I told him that this time is different. And it was.

With Andrew: I called him at work as McKayla told us that I am pregnant. I took a test to show her that I wasnt and I was shocked to see it was. Grant was laughing that I first of all took a test to prove to our girl that she is wrong and second of all that I had to apologize to our girl. Much happier the second time around. ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 15:43:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296002&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296002 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : DF reaction for number one when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1296000&title=husband-partner-reactions#1296000 Author: becky

DF reaction for number one when I told him I think Im pregnant was "You better be"

The second time was "serious thats awesome" however the reaction was the funnniest when he found out we were having twins he went into shock and kept saying things like "so that means double presents at birthdays" and "that means double uniforms when they start school"

#1 was more or less of an 'oh #$%^, what are we going to do now' (he wasnt ready for baby and at 19 I wasnt either, but due to personal beliefs there wasnt much else I could do!)

#2 DP thought he was 'the man' and sent his mum a text immediately after I rang him with the news (we'd been trying for some time, had 2 early mc's and had been told less than 2 months earlier that we'd need to go on the IVF waiting list)

#3 and I quote "You're s#$%ting me!" after only 8 months TTC neither of us expected to have concieved just yet given how long it took to get DD! He was thrilled and held off all of 3 days before telling everyone (so much for agreeing to wait til after scan!

He pushed me into testing given I was sent home from work for gagging and having to run away and vomit if someone was buying pet food or raw fish (i was a checkout operator)
But when I did the actual test his reaction was exactly one suitable to post on here but the basis of it was "but your on the depo and we had sex like once cos of all the bleeding you had"
but once that wore off quickly and he got excited.
he woke me up out of no-where the night it was confirmed by midwife to tell me baby was going to be called Lukah ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 14:12:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295921&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295921 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : My poor guy found out through...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295872&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295872 Author: ooEvaoo

Hehe, my DP went very quiet and I'm quite glad I told him it was possible I was pregnant the first time while walking into town so he had something to concentrate on doing (very unexpected baby).

And for the 2nd he was cleaning the oven at the time and snapped at me cause I was getting in the way, plus we were both convinced it would take ages and he was hoping it would take longer.

ETA: the second time round he wouldn't believe that the test at home was "good enough" so I had to go to the doctors that very day to double check, all they did was give me another test to pee on...... It looked EXACTLY the same as the one I just did at home lol.

DH was great - i greeted him at the window where he parks his ute with a grin asking him to come inside first (he normally lets the dogs out on his way inside). Once inside I asked him to check the bathroom (I'd left the test on the vanity) he knes straight away. All i got was a 'thats good aye!' lol hows that for an understatement.
Though he kept going into the bathroom to check during the evening, at one point he asked what 3 lines meant - twins?

He held it to the light and said 'yeah, i see it' then went and made a coffee lol Not a man of many words lol but i know how excited he was both times ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 11:31:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295810&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295810 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : DH was very happy and cried but...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295789&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295789 Author: Bee2010

DH was very happy and cried but was also scared as we had a M/C before and couldn't really relax til DS was born.

Can I ask what reaction he had???]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 11:08:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295789&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295789 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : I recall mine almost cried with...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295786&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295786 Author: lilfatty

I recall mine almost cried with joy the first time .. then almost cried with fear the next time (obviously our first wasnt the most pleasant baby) ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 11:03:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295786&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295786 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : Hehe.

Hehe. When pregnant with #1 DP went into shock. Although it was to be expected the relaity of being pregnant scared him lol. He went out to his man cave(garage) for an hour

With this baby he was pretty happy. Still went into shock a bit but got over it alot quicker.

I think for him there is a difference in just trying for a baby and then actually knowing you are going to have one is a bit scary. But it is scary so i dont blame him lol ]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 10:21:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295762&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295762 <![CDATA[Husband/Partner Reactions :) : Hi all, For all those ladies...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38583&PID=1295759&title=husband-partner-reactions#1295759 Author: KiwiAtHeart

Hi all,

For all those ladies have had/ are having babies, how did your DP's/DH's react when you told them you were pregnant? Was watching a show called a baby story and this one father had a very funny reaction which just made me think. Both times i told DP he was just speechless with smiles.
