How to share the news of pregnancy
When I found out I was pregnant earlier this autumn, it was only Baby Girl and me who were at home. But this time it didn’t really matter that Daddy T wasn’t there to double check that there really were two lines on the test.
I was much more relaxed than I was the first time around. I took a quick photo of the positive test before I binned it, and ran back to bed to wait for Baby Girl to wake up. As soon as I heard her I went to pick her up from her cot bed and told her the brilliant news.
She got excited too. The baby staying in the house inside mummy’s tummy was going to sleep next to her in her buggy when it came out and it could come stay in her room. She would feed the baby and give the baby milk.
While we were sitting on our bed chatting and stroking the tummy, I dialled Daddy T’s number and Baby Girl took the phone to give him the news.
‘Baby in tummy, Daddy!’
Daddy T was rushing into a meeting but before he hung up, I managed to shout from the background that Baby Girl was actually spot on.
‘We’re having a baby!’
