Guys never react how we want them too LoL That being said, it is ultimately what you feel comfortable with. I would want to go to that particular u/s myself (I have had a mc too) I think it would be easier for me to make sure everything is going well at that point. So I think if it were me I would wait for a little while longer. But it's up to YOU :) Congrats and good luck!

I would tell him either before or after the ultrasound, not during. Otherwise it's almost like you've set him up (or it could feel that way to him). Or worse, he'll react 'badly' and you'll be upset and humiliated in front of the Dr.
If you wait till after you can at least say to him that baby is alive and doing well so far....
Congrats though and here's hoping for a healthy & happy 34 more weeks xxxxxxx

I would tell him in private, not during an ultrasound with a tech or doc there. It could be very awkward for everyone. Hope you see a heartbeat and your husband responds the way you hope!

I would tell your hubby asap especially because of your losses..you may be needing his support. It wouldn't be nice for him to find out you have lost before you he knew your pregnant. I am sorry for being negative that's just the way I am seeing this. I have lost enough to know after a loss your very anxious and you will need someone to help console you with every lil hump along the way.

I'd tell him now in case you need the support - but I do think it's a cute idea to have him find out in the ultrasound!

I would tell him home before u/s when you 2 are alone. See his reaction, then invite him to ultrasound. It will be much better(in my opinion).
I'm sure some mens react WOW and it's super but I would not count on that especially you know how he react when you had your mc.
Update us whatever you decide 😘

Overjoyed! There is a heartbeat :)
Cannot contain the relief.... trying to manage the 6 more weeks of anxiety until a m/c is less likely.
hugs and a big kiss to you lovely ladies who have helped me through this.
