What was your first thought when you found out you were pregnant?

I remember feeling a surge of pure joy followed by “Oh crap, am I ready for this???”

I thought it would never happen to me I went through my whole entire 20s without being pregnant now I am 30 and Pregnant for the first time it was shocking and exciting at the same time

I immediately started balling my eyes out lol. We were 17 and trusted the pull and pray method, only he never pulled lmao. I thought my life was over. I have a beautiful son and another daughter otw

My first thought was “yeah right” and then I started crying

I cried like a baby lol I was so scared and nervous! Lol

The first thing that came to my mind was “fuck” followed by “fuck fuck fuck” I was 8 weeks at this point and displaying common symptoms. But I kept telling myself that it was anxiety and stress. I didn’t think it was possible for me to get pregnant and stopped taking the pill two years ago. It can be said I had successfully deluded myself into ignoring all the symptoms. It was my friend who convinced me to do it for peace of mind.

My first was planned, it took 3 months to conceive. My second was "oh shit..." I was on BC, in a casual relationship and had a planned graduation date that has been pushed back a year now. But she is amazing, I'm in love 😍

I freaked out because i was sure i was not. Hubby and I were not planning to have a baby just yet!!! Followed by unbelievable joy

I remember feeling joy and also feeling scared at the same time and all these emotions all at once but mostly joy !!! We were trying for the longest and had 2 miscarriages so I thought I was gonna have another miscarriage but I had a healthy little girl and wouldn't change it for the world!!

Oh shit, I'm going to have to do what Mrs Taylor described in high school as like peeing a bowling ball, covered in hot tar and rolled in broken glass....

I went through being scared and happy for like 40’s and then I got numb cause I couldn’t stop thinking.

I didn’t know how to feel when i found out. The doctor and i just looked at each other with emotionless faces for a few minutes until i finally said (with a straight face), “interesting...okay.”

I was 17, but I wanted a family someday. It happend a bit sooner than expected, but I got a beautiful baby girl now. I first thoought that I was a bit nervous but I was super happy and excited. The only thing ai was scared of was telling people a “how do I tell my mom” type thing 😩

The first pregnancy I was shocked and confused, because I was at the doctor to get birth control and I just left my kick boxing class!but I finished my last semester and had a beautiful baby boy then 5 months later I was pregnant again and I cried and cried. But happy because I had my little girl and she's the best!

Honestly, it is easier with them being so close. They play a lot and get along well. I wouldn't have done it another way.

My little one was 4 months when we found out about our second one... my husband didn’t believe it would be easier to conceive and wanted them close in age (Maybe not that close though lol)

It was disbelief, elation, and then pure terror. 🤣

It was a complete shock but I was so excited for it. My fiancé was at well!

I remember thinking oh shit how am I suppose to break it off now and we are not ready for this! 😱😱4 years later and two babies! We were ready just needed that kick in the pants lol!

Ha same with the how am I supposed to brake it of now I’m glad u worked it out tho me and my baby’s daddy didn’t it just got worse

I’m super lucky. we definitely had our lows and it could have easily ended but we fought through and are in a great place. I hope you find (or have found) the man of your dreams that you deserve!!

After 2 negative tests, the doctor saying “your pregnant” like it was obvious and I just blurting our “are you fucking serious?” Then tears of joy and fear! 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

I was both scared and ecstatic😂 i had so many things running thru my head

My in laws told me I was the first time... didn’t even get a chance to find out first. Lol.

I was nervous anxious and scared but I already knew before I took the test I had an odd feeling in my gut kinda like a floating sensation and told someone and they asked me if I was pregnant and unlike every time before when someone asked I just could not say no I was already pregnant for 2 months before I realized It could never go by my monthly cause it was so irregular

I freaked out!!! I wasn’t ready!!!! But who really is??

My first though was, “OH SH!T” and then I prayed, wished, and hoped this would be my Rainbow Baby.

She was born a beautiful healthy girl at 9.1lbs and 21.5 inches long

SHIT! What about school my plans I’m super young I can’t do this. 2 years later engaged have a amazing 13 month old and best decision in my life

I found out at the doctor and the first thing I said was “oh shit you’re kidding me” then I cried. It was definitely not planned 😅 but after I told my bf and he was excited I felt a lot less stressed out and soon enough I was really really happy about it

Yay finally! I’m so excited

Omg noooooo for Tha 3rd time I hope this is a keeper...and it is I’m 5months now👏🏾

“Oh fuck.”

I had gone to the Emergency room due to having really bad pain in my stomach and they gave me morphine to help. When the doctor came back in he was like oh your pregnant and I honestly thought I was hearing things because of the morphine my bf was laughing at my reaction and handle it way better than I did lol.

I sat in the grocery store bathroom crying my eyes out because of happiness(doctors for years told me I'd be unable to have children) and then the whole "oh my God I still have to tell him. How is he going to react? How do i tell him? He's gonna kill me...." lol

My husband is gonna be pissssed haha . - now she’s a beautiful 4 month old little girl who we just adore

"That worked fast!" I took my first fertility pill after having unprotected sex for like 8 years 3 times a week with hubby with no results. ( No healthcare until last year. ) Twelve dollars, six pills, and four weeks later I was expecting. Science is amazing! 👩‍🔬

Maybe these three tests are expired let’s go to the hospital and find out

I was scared because I was spotting for quite a few days and I know that is common in early pregnancy but I was worried that I was having a miscarriage. Turns out everything was fine and I have my beautiful boy.

I laughed! My husband and I had just closed escrow on our new house so we were a little overwhelmed 😅

Fuck 😩

“Oh my gosh. Dammit. He was right AGAIN!” This is a great q, I love the answers!

“Oh shit. Well that explains it” I was on vacation in Texas and got sick as soon as we landed. Was sick the whole week and wound up in the ER for dehydration. We weren’t necessarily trying so it came as a shock. I’m 12 weeks tomorrow:) can’t wait to meet our little miracle.

It’s about time!!!! I wanted to take a test every day until it came back positive, but my husband convinced me to only take one test per week.

Hahaha I love this.

I wasnt trying to have a baby, but I wasnt necessarily trying not to either lol I was actually very convinced I wasnt able to have kids. I was sick for week before I took the test, I thought my missed period was just one of those random missed periods I'd get every now and then. Boy was I wrong!! Lol But when I saw those two lines I was immediately excited!! There was never a moment of doubt that it was finally my time to be a mom. It was a big life change from how I was living at the time but I was ready for the challenge!

I knew it lol

Oh shit

Holy crap three years with my ex nothing...?? Two months with this man with protection ... and whola!!!!

I was in disbelief & scared

I started at the digital read that said “pregnant” and was waiting for the word “not” to appear before it. But then I checked the time. The test was done. I was shocked and excited. I cried tears of joy.

... My life is over!... But little did I know, my life just got SOOOO much better and meaningful 😁❤

We had only been trying for 1 week when we found out so it was pure disbelief!

I had suffered a miscarriage not even a month before and honestly thought the doctor was lying to me, I told her no when she told me I was pregnant.

I’m sorry about your loss before! ❤️😢

Thank you, I have my rainbow baby ❤️

Holy fuck...is this a joke?

When i took my test the line was so faint i could barely see it. I just thought it was a mistake and when i took it tp show my husband he didnt see anything. Two days later I took another one and I couldn't have been happier when the dark blue line showed up. I love my one year old so much.

I was crying 😭😭
