Congrats....our #4 was a suprise too...my DH only wanted 1 - now he has 4. But at the end of the day he knew im super fertile, mini pill doesnt work for me and refused to get the snip...so kinda going to happen that i fall pregnant. Same can be said for you...
We have a 3 bedroom house, 6 people in it...we're doing ok. Although rennos will start soon for a 4th bedroom.
It took me and DH a long time to get used to being pg with #4...we both dealt with it in our own time....it wasnt easy...but we got there - together. Make sure you talk heaps.....
I grew up as one of 8 kids in a 4 bedroom house. We survived to tell about it. Actually I loved sharing a room, and my girls also share rooms and love it. Having a room to your self might be appealing sometimes, but having a close sibling to talk and share with is a life long gift, IMO.
Anyways, give your DH a little time to adjust - he'll come around. As Mbear said - keep communicating!
You are all so positive. And I know I should be, but I know my DH he doesn?t like pregnant people full stop. He hardly touch me when I got to around 5month prg with 2 DS, and when they were born he didn?t have a lot to do with them until they were like 4-6 months when they could see and watch things.
He will just have to get used to the idea I know, but as far as communication goes, he doesn?t he retreats into our little world and doesn?t say anything.
When I told him we were pregnant with other children it wasn?t the reaction I wanted, thrilled like me. No more disappointed would be more the word I would use to describe his reaction. (a comment was ?That?s something isn?t it, now what are we going to do?.) So I have condole myself with it is going to be a long and lone pregnancy in the beginning or maybe all thought but I meet some lovley ladies on here last time and was hoping there were would be another belly buddies due around same time I will join and get some support that way.
i found out today as well lol my bf has a low sperm count so its amazing thats for sure
but we allready have 2 kids together( he has a daughter from previous relationship) this will make number three our house isnt big enough ect but like i said to him a baby is a baby its a blessing and if he dosent liek it yup he should have got snipped lol
but i wish u all the best and will enjoy to share my jouney with u
by the due date calulator and my lmp im due the 9th of april lol
we are TTC our 4th ATM, and from what everyone tells me and what I hope is true, going from 3 to 4 is so bad its only going from 2 to 3 that hurts... we coped quite well with our 3rd so can only hope the same will happen when ( and If ) our 4th comes along...
Congratulations and good luck telling DH. Perhaps he'll think twice about putting off getting the snip now.
I hope that it'll all work out and that he will start getting happy and exciting early on.
