Just found out! Advice please!

So just a little background - I was diagnosed with PCOS at 21 yrs old (I'm now 28) and was told at the time that I would likely have trouble conceiving. My husband and I married four months ago and started trying right away. I've been feeling weird for the past week - just a little off and I am a few days late for my period. So today I decided to take a test, sure enough, it's positive! I confirmed it with another test just to be sure. I am SO EXCITED I've gone back and forth crying out of joy and being scared to death. I don't know whether to make an appointment and get everything checked out first or tell my husband before all of that .I'm worried about the things the doctor's told me in the past, especially that I am at risk for ectopic pregnancy, so this is why I'm hesitant. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance ladies!

When I do tell him I would love to do something cute and planned out, I know he will be overjoyed

Congrats!  I think it would be super hard to not tell my husband especially if you guys were actively trying.  Id tell him, you'll have his support and youll feel much more at ease about everything to come knowing you have him in your corner.

Congratulations!  I just found out I'm pregnant with my second yesterday, too  I agree with others that you should tell your husband right away.  With my first, I did it the same way he proposed to me.  I'm a scrabble geek, so when he proposed to me he had set up a message on a Scrabble board in my old apartment asking if I would marry him.  So for our first, I left a message on a Scrabble board in the kitchen saying "we're pregnant".  Yesterday, I had my daughter greet him at the door with a "Big Sister" shirt on  Good luck!

Congrats!  I told my husband right away because we had been trying so long and I was just so excited to tell him.  I didn't even tell him in person, but called him and told him over the phone since he had already left for work!

Congrats mama!
Definitely tell your hubs. If it IS ectopic you're going to need lots of hugs and support. But don't worry much about it, odds of that are rare. I have pcos also, conceived #1 on the first try #2 was a missed mc and #3 took two months. Odds are in your favor

Why would you not tell him? No matter the outcome, you're in this together. When I miscarried, I was so grateful to have my boyfriend helping me through it. It was hard for both of us, and having the support helps immensely. Whether it is ectopic or not, he deserves to know just as much as you do. Tell him you're pregnant as soon as possible, and let him know your concerns. Congrats, and good luck!(:

I have pcos too. First one required fertility treatment, this one was a complete surprise. I would suggest to make sure they check your progesterone when you go in for your appointment.

I cannot imagine keeping something like that from your husband. My husband would be seriously pissed off if I hadn't told him. It's just as much his baby as it is yours -- and wouldn't you want your husband's love and support if anything did go wrong?

Imagine telling your husband 2 weeks after you got married :P  We were in utter shock.  Just tell him.  He will be happy.

Aside from everything your doctor told you, he is still your husband and he would probably like it if you told him rather than wait. He can go to the first visit with you for support. Make an appointment and tell him. Congratulations!
