What are you going to do about it?

Not the reaction I was expecting...
- I placed my 2 positive HPTs (one digi that said the word "pregnant") on my husband's computer keyboard. When he comes home from work, he goes right to his computer to play games. I waited for a few minutes after he went in, and walked in after him. He had actually moved the tests off of his keyboard without saying a word to me, and started playing his game! I stood there silently for a minute, then he asked me if I had gotten on his computer, because his mouse had been moved! Seriously?! I just walked out of the room. A few minutes later, I walked back in, and he said..."are you sure those are right? Couldn't they be false positives?" We had been trying for 3 months....

?!?
- My man and I hadn't been using birth control since the birth of our 11 month old and when I told him recently that I took a pregnancy test and it was positive, he said, "Are you f***ing kidding me?" Needless to say, he was rather shocked.

Shocked
- Despite the fact we'd been trying for months, he said, "How did this happen?" I still don't know if he was in shock or trying to be funny. I broke out in tears and he wrapped me up in his arms and told me how excited he was...
