I went to the doctors yesterday for something completely unrelated, and I figured while I was there, get a pregnancy test done. I got the shock of my life when the nurse came back in and said it was faintly positive! I was only 10 days po, and he didn't even "complete" in me! 
They ordered a blood test, and this morning I'm waiting for them to call me. Technically, the due date is January 27th, but considering the fact that I gestate longer than the typical 40 weeks, I'm going to be here. It would just be too frustrating for me to be on the January board, and see all these women giving birth a full month or more before me.
After the blood test was ordered, I went to break the news to the father. I got in the door, fell into the chair across the table from him, and when he asked me how my doctors appointment went, I burst into tears! His response "Well, that doesn't sound good."
I rambly told him what had happened, looking down at the table crying. He ducked his head down to make eye contact with me, and he said "It's nothing to cry about."
I rambled a bit more, and then we sat in silence for a little while. I asked him what names he liked. He only has a boys name picked out. Liam. I like it. I'm sending him a list of girls names I like later, after I get the blood test results.
He's cool with the fact that I'm going to give birth at home. I've already showed him my copies of Mothering magazine, before we found out I was pregnant, just so he knew what I was about. He has no other children, so he's pretty open to what I want to do.
I already have 3 other children from my marriage. I'm not telling them anytime soon.
I'm in shock. This man is amazing, both when I think about him logically and when I think about him with my heart.
So, how'd you find out you were pregnant, and how'd you tell the father?
