How did the baby's father react when you first told him?

How did yalls babies fathers react when yall first told them? I know my boyfriend was in shock at first and now he's starting to come around and joke with me about it and actually talk about it. It scared me at first because he didn't really want to discuss it but now he's starting to seem more open to it and happy.

My fiance didn't believe me at first...I showed him the test and it was very faint, so he said he wasn't getting excited until I took one the next morning. I took one the next morning and it was darker and he couldnt stop smiling! He went to work and told everyone!

My boyfriend and I had broken up a few days after doing it....and so I was alone :/ I missed my period for a few weeks and was just thinking it was stress but I bought a pregnancy test anyway.....within 5 seconds after doing it it was a really bright positive...I took two more after that and when they were all positive I cried myself to sleep after sending him a picture of all 3 tests....all he said  was "crap....." of course he's excited and we are back together but sometimes I wonder if he really wants to be with me or if its just cause im pregnant...but now he and I are so excited to welcome our little angel in the world

Horrible! Our relationship was in a bad place, it wasn't what we wanted at the time. I bawled, he freaked out. But when the next morning came around he completely changed. He was excited andtold me he was ready to have a family and get married. Now he is over protective of anything I do lol he wants his baby girls to be as healthy as can be.

I was told after me and my husband lost our first baby two years that it was probably impossible for me to have kids so when I went to my lady doc she did all these test and told me that there is a then peace of muscle in my cervix I think I don't remember that was not suppose to be there idk it was all I. Doctor language very confusing but me and my husband kept trying after that any way thinking we could get lucky and always got let down. Well in January I had a very strange period and we were like its never been that way so February came and no period at so I was like well I'll take a test and see it came back negative so we didn't think anything of it I've missed months before then march came still no period so we were like okay we will wait till the end of the month and see if my period is just late ya know.. still nothing so we went to the health department who and half weeks ago and turns out that home test was a dud. I'm 14 weeks today with a healthy baby
