I was going to wait until Father's day but after keeping it a secret for 1 1/2 weeks I couldn't hold it any longer. Of course I haven't been feeling well and tired so he laughed and told me he had guessed (plus no AF so that's kinda telling too). He had texted a friend a few days ago saying he thought I was preggers but thought I was waiting till father's day. At least he let me try to have my surprise! Lol. What a man.
Re: I caved and told DH
You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
You held out for a week and a half? Oh my goodness. You were way stronger than I was. I POAS when my husband was at work, not really expecting much, but kept having these weird cramps. It took me all of two minutes from seeing that BFP to call him at work! All I said was "Can you come home?" He got all worried that something was wrong, so I told him I took a test and I passed! He left right away.
Enjoy this little time in the "baby bubble" with your DH. I am waiting to tell people until at least after our first appointment in a couple of weeks. It is hard, but also wonderful to have this magical little secret that only the two of us know about right now.

Wow, you're a champ! I would never have lasted that long, and DH definitely would have ruined my surprise.
How'd you tell him?
Not anything really creative. Our boys had gone over to a friend's to play and DH was working at home so I asked if he was up for going out for a quick coffee date. I gave him a new baby card that said "Congratulations" and I wrote "on our expanding family AGAIN. We are pregnant!" then I wrote a little note about what a great dad he is to our kids and how I enjoy expanding our family with him.
He glanced at it and started laughing. He said he knew.
