leave your pregnancy test out on the bathroom counter and let him see it. If he hasn't brought it up with 20-30mins of seeing it then you bring it up. That way it'll at least give him some time to sort out his own thoughts and possibly have some encouraging words for you.
I'm gonna assume this was a planned pregnancy as you are on a TTC site so this maybe something he's totally on board for now that this is really gonna happen and not just a "what if"
Good luck to you though.
Say a silent prayer asking for help with the right words

It will work itself out. Be positive! You have a BLESSINg in disguise! He will be happy once he has his child in hi arms. Good luck. Just be honest with your thoughts and feelings. Some men will freak at first and take a few days to get it through their heads. Then they will be o.k. Happened to me. Took my hubby 2 weeks.
Good luck!

My husband is the same way so I know the type you seem more of an emotional person like me I wear my emotions on my sleeves. It's going to be difficult I'm not going to sugar coat it for you. You can be honest with him and explain your feelings but don't be offended if it don't go as you wish. He can hear you and it may be that he doesn't get all the emotions because it's in his nature.He will come along in his own way and pace. I'm sure he loves you and has his on set of emotions bottled up. I expected my hubby to show more emotions and support me more since this is our first together and our baby was planned but there is a different feel. I know it will work out good luck and happy 9mos to you both.

You summed it up so well, He needs you to tell him how to act. Men often do, I have been married for 20 years and I no longer wait (in huffy silence) for my Hubby to do the 'right thing', if he aint doing it, I ask, and he is grateful.
Maybe some men are lazy but I think they just don't see it.

Thinking of you, sweetie, but keep taking (and listening) to that man of yours. You are about to start a wonderful adventure.
