I am 24yrs old, my husband is 24. We have a 4 year old daughter, and we have been married for 3 years. I just got my associate, and my husband is in the military and trying to get his associates.Unplanned Second Pregnancy, Husband doesn't want kids, How should I break the news to him?
All 3 of my pregnancies were unplanned, but we love them all as if they were. In fact, my husband and I had decided we didn't want anymore when our second child was 2. He went to the doctor to see about a vasectomy, but wouldn't go thru with it. So, I went to the doctor to schedule surgery to get my tubes tied. It was then that I found out I was already pregnant with baby number 3. Despite the fact that we didn't want anymore, my husband and I were content and even excited about it after the initial shock wore off. Just tell him, and then be patient with him to come around if he is upset about it. You've had some time to process the news and he will need some, too. My grandmother always said you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Just try not to get upset or take it personally if he gets upset. You shouldn't have to apologize for being pregnant, (you were both there!) but do let him know you understand how he feels about it. If you two end up in a fight over it, he may become bitter and take longer to accept it. I hope this advice helps. We just celebrated our 10th anniversary a few days ago, and we might not have made it thru some things without help and advice from others who had been where we were. Good luck with your husband and the pregnancy!!!Unplanned Second Pregnancy, Husband doesn't want kids, How should I break the news to him?
Just tell him. And if he gets mad tell him snip snip or abstinence is the only way not to have more. Plus it isn't your or his fault.
I have found that being honest with everyone is best. Since your husband should be your best friend... treat him as you would want him to treat you. Just tell him the truth and do it soon. If you have a hard time in telling him then start out with saying something like... sweetheart, I have something to tell you that you may not like to hear... or I feel that it may upset you. Then just tell him... we are going to have a baby. Don't start off with ';I love you';... coz he should already know that since you are married and that to me would sure enough send up my walls for sure. Good luck and let me know how it works for you.... I care.
Well, I guess all you can do is tell him. You are both adults and know that when you have sex that the possibilty of pregnancy is there. If he was serious about not having kids then you 2 should have discussed a birth control method.
Just tell him. He might not be that upset. Usually when someone doesn't want kids and later find out that they're having one a lot of times they are very accepting of it. Especially since he already knows how much joy a child can bring him.
your just going to have to share this news...he may change his mind now that its an actual event happening.
Singing Telegram?
He impregnated you so you shouldn't be afraid to break the news to him. It takes two, doesn't it?
To make it ighter, u may try telling him after a good round of sex while both of you are still in bed
just tell him and after this one someone should get fixed
WOW, I read your question and my eyes almost popped out of my head. You sound almost like me! (Both my husband and I are 24, we have a 4 year-old boy, pregnant with our second [planned though], and my husband is also in the military and working on his degree.)
I'm sorry to hear that your husband doesn't want any more children. I would definitely tell him ASAP so he doesn't feel as though you tried to hide it from him. (Which would be way worse!) Just sit down, take a deep breath, and let him know. Hey, you didn't get pregnant on your own... he was just as much a part of the process as you were.
Just tell him, it shouldn't be that big of a deal, ya'll are married and happy (I assume). This is an inocent child, just love it! And if he can't...too bad for him!
The way you told him the first time..Is the child his?..
';Honey, remember the other night when I told you I had a headache? Well you should have listened, because now look what you did!'; Then start throwing things at him. Even throw the pregnancy test at him. He'll be too busy dodging items to be upset.
Shoulda wore a condom Just tell him.
If an old codger's opinion is worth anything, I would suggest telling him openly and assuming you are happy with the pregnancy, and that you hope he is okay with the news. If you are unhappy with the news then you need to discuss with him what to do - abortion, adoption etc. The sooner you talk this over the better as unfortunately you can not hide the pregnancy forever. If you feel you may have difficulty telling him, ask a councillor or supportive friend to be there and help break the news.
All the best whichever you decide.
Keep smiling
I would just be straight with him. He may accept it openly or he may not. In the end, there is still a baby that needs to be taken care of. Its your body and if you can handle another one then go for it
