I was so excited I started crying! I wasn't expecting it to be positive because we had only been trying a month! It was the best Valentines day ever! When my husband got home and I told him he couldn't stop smiling he was so excited! Now I'm 23+4 with our little girl! :)

I laughed when I saw the faint blue and chalked it up to being a faulty test. 8 pee sticks later I knew it was real. I immediately called the father and told him and then told my mom about 5 minutes later. Then I spent about 4 hours crying lol.

I was happy because we had tried for five years after our twins were born. Only to give up and I was back in school working on my asdosiate degree so that I can go to a four year university to the bsn program . So all in all kind of bitter sweet. I was no longer dreaming of babies, but of walking to get a degree. Time to change my dreams again. :)

I was In complete shock. I had just started nursing school and getting pregnant was not my plan at all. I hadn't even noticed I missed my period because I switched birth controls and thought nothing of it. After we told our families and friends and seeing all the support I became a lot more excited. Dont get me wrong I'm still nervous because now I'm balancing school work and having a baby.. but now I have even more reason to make sure I graduate on time

I couldn;t believe it, I ended up taking like 7 tests in one night cause of the shock.   My BF was away down South working so I text him a pic of all the positive tests, and we could barely speak to each other for about 3 days cause of the shock lol x

My first I was happy but surprised, 2nd I was so happy cause we were trying and I had gone through a miscarriage, this one I was in total shock and I can remember thinking I don't want to do this.I was on birth control and didn't want another baby cause I am overwhelmed with the 2 kids I have now, im ashamed to say I thought of having an abortion but im totally against it and my husband didn't want me too. Im currently 35 wks 5 days and excited to meet our little girl

I was in shock and utter disbelief. My jaw hit the floor, and I cried quite a lot. That was when I got a positive at home test. I was silent and felt it difficult to speak at my first appointment when they confirmed it, and during my first ultrasound I was still in shock and didn't know what to think. Of course my strong reactions were due to the fact that the baby's father left me only less than a month before finding out with an at home test, and he told me to go to h*** when I told him and he hasn't spoken to me since. My situation though I've overcome it, my baby is the most important priority in my life and that will never change.

I was every emotion you could think of. Happy sad confused lost thrilled worried etc. I couldn't believe it. After a miscarriage and almost 2years of trying I had basically given up. I really only took the test (not cause I thought I was pregnant) but because I just need one more negative for me to just stop hoping. Then it came out positive. I had no emotion in me right then- just a blank stare at the rest of my life. I sent a pic to my husband cause I really didn't know what else to do. I was in shock. I literally walked into the living room (my in laws were visiting) and sat next to them on the couch watched a movie and went to bed. Said nothing about it but couldn't stop thinking about it. We waited to tell everyone cause we needed to be 100% sure. But here we are 19w1d and my baby is as healthy and active as it could be so early (:

I couldnt believe it at first. We had been trying for 1 1/2 year. I told myself after two yrs we would go for fertility treatment. I kinda gave up in my heart so after spending new years at my parents i felt very ill at there house. I thought it was because of anxiety since i didnt want to leave them after only five days, i only saw them twice a year. But when i got home i still felt sick. So my hubby said take a test. And i laughed and laughed and told him he was only getting his hopes up and i didnt want to break my heart again and angain. Well i took one to shut him up really, didnt look at it left it right there on the counter. My hubby looked at it after three minutes and he was quiet so i didnt any of it. He came oit with a big smile and tears in his eyes and i started crying :) i was overly happy and so was my hubby. We are now ecpecting our son in 8weeks!!!!!!!

I went to the doctors because I had been horribly sick for 3 weeks straight. Being pregnant never crossed my mind....AT ALL. Lol when the doctor came in and told me, all I heard was "it's positive." After that I went home and cried for a couple hours...and cried the next day, and the day after that. For probably about a week lol I was like Omg my life is over. But nos that I can feel my little one move, and I find out the sex in 1 week, I'm so excited!

I've been married about 3 1/2 years now. 4 in December. My husband and myself tried for about 6 months after we got married. I was taking fertility drugs and everything. Just wasn't our time. I was convinced my husband could not have children. End of January this year I decided to stop my birth control. My husband is active duty in the USAF and was going on a 4 month deployment to Japan middle February. So I figured I'd give my body a couple months to adjust so when he came home we could start trying again. Beginning of March I decided to test. I knew it would be negative because the many times before they always were. To my surprise it had an extra faint positive line! I immediately freak out! Overwhelmed with enjoyment! Called my mom, sister and brother! I just couldn't belIeve it! The next day I got to tell my husband via Skype. He was so happy and excited! He just kept saying, "really? Really? I'm gonna be a dad?!?" I'm now currently 21+3 weeks pregnant with our son♥

When I found out I was excited, happy and nervous. Then I told his father and he freaked. He gave the phone to his friend and though I was happy, realizing I was now on the phone with his friend took away some of my joy. When his father got back on the phone he said how he shouldn't have been so careless, and should of known better.. I strongly believed I couldn't get pregnant and had planned to join the Navy.

Needless to say I locked myself in the bathroom and just cried. Later he texted me saying how he wanted a DNA test and other stuff. We aren't together anymore but our friendship is still pretty strong. We're both really excited to see what our little boy looks like c: 2 more weeks!

I was in complete shock because we used protection and when you use protection you don't think about having a baby. So I ended up going back to the store to buy more test and I bought like 20. I went home and took all of them and every single one was positive. Still couldn't believe it so I tried to go buy more until they stopped and told me that's enough(it's not going to change) we were only dating a month so I just wanted to cry. We are still together and doing great and he is the sweetest guy I ever dated. Now I'm soooo excited!!
