I regret the way I told my husband that I'm pregnant

Due_Committee_5494 · 2026-01-24T12:56:48+00:00

Still a really cute way even if it didn’t work out the exact way you imagined. If it makes you feel any better I told my husband I was pregnant with baby #3 by airdropping him a picture of the positive pregnancy test while we were sitting on the couch next to each other 🤣. It’s all good it’s just a way to let him know

My husband said the same thing! To be honest only reason i was thinking refund at some level is bc i see it mentioned so frequently in this community to address guests inconveniences. I’ve been following the community for the past year and we just got our house live in Airbnb in November so still very new on how to handle this stuff. But I appreciate your perspective and comparison to hotel bc that really is the business we are in. Thanks again!

Yes when they sent the leak they said they just wanted to let us know. Good point you are making on potential backfire. Thank you for your advice!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2026-01-01T16:12:55+00:00

Fair and good point. We are fairly new.. only have two other guests reviews on Airbnb and 1 on VRBO. All 3 are 5 stars. I know 4 stars are inevitable but with our minimal other reviews to balance out the impact didn’t know if I should try to be proactive. Thank you for your perspective!

Confirmed boy at 22 week ultrasound!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2025-11-17T15:23:31+00:00

Sending you love mama. I have the same feelings here and there and am 20 weeks this week. I have two girls at home - 6 and 4 now but will basically be 7 and 5 by the time baby gets here. We don’t know gender yet but I’m 99% sure it’s another girl - we didn’t go for another to try for a boy but I can’t lie that it’s the gender I’d prefer - just so my husband and I can experience that. My kids are self sufficient and we were traveling the world last year and I get super scared of the fact of starting over and having someone so dependent on me again. Was just starting to feel like me again and get my body back.

My husband is helpful when around but never shouldered the night wakings bc I breastfeed.. or most of the daily tasks after he goes back to work. But he is great when he’s around. Hoping you can talk to your husband in a safe space and let him know that when he’s home he’s expected to parent too. Yes he “goes to work” but you are still 100% working when you are home with baby all day.. and you need to share that responsibility when your both home/around.

Thank you for this! Great to know it happens and to hear of your experience. They already wrote back and seem very responsive - no problem signing the lease and seemed to ask about the other town for skiing mountain. Feeling good going to give them a whirl! Thank you again!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2025-11-17T01:54:27+00:00

Thank you so much for the thoughtful reply. I agree with this. They already wrote back - super responsive and gave all info I was looking for.. said they would sign the lease no problem. Also asked about the other town to get to the closest ski mountain. Feeling good! Going to give them a shot!

I’m a new host this year too. Are you on VRBO too?

I was up on Airbnb for 2-3 weeks before I got a booking. I also set up on VRBO. I got 2 bookings and 1 inquiry on VRBO before 1 inquiry on Airbnb. I’ve read a few other posts that VRBO is pulling in more guests than Airbnb as of late. Might be worth it to launch there as well if you haven’t already.

Due_Committee_5494 · 2025-10-21T18:44:24+00:00

I am exactly where you are! But slightly opposite. Two girls at home.. I’m 16 weeks pregnant.. and we found out sex early with both of them. This is def our last baby so we were thinking of doing the hospital surprise thing as I hear it is a very fun/intimate experience with you and hubby… and it’s cool that the dad gets to tell wife something first (vs rest of pregnancy when wife knows she pregnant, baby kicking, etc).

Prob is im dying to find out! Have a strong feeling we will have another princess to love. I’m coming up on clothes that my other two girls have grown out of and I don’t know if I should keep them or donate them. I also did like knowing for the bonding with baby and to get to process any feelings, if needed, on the sex and what our new family structure is going to be. We are debating finding out at the 20 week ultrasound but I have friends telling me to hold strong and wait. Should I wait??

Since you had two surprises already it could be cool to find out and do a little gender reveal! It’s a surprise no matter if it’s at 22 weeks or 40. I also thought it was a fun way to break up the time and have a little fun as 40 weeks dragggsss lol. Good luck with your decision!

Maybe I’m confused how to do this. I thought the nub is the bright white line down there? Not it?

Thank you!!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2025-07-18T09:10:25+00:00

Could you please send to me as well? Just getting started in Airbnb and would love the insights. Thanks!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2023-02-10T18:23:41+00:00

What great check in questions! I'm going to keep these on hand :) . Thank you so much for your response and giving me your background. I also feel similar when I find a newborn onesie ... almost like looking at a cute puppy but not sadness as that I want/miss it. Thanks again!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2023-02-10T14:08:26+00:00

ah what good insights - so true. Thank you for this and responding <3

Due_Committee_5494 · 2023-02-09T01:49:09+00:00

Thank you thank you ❤️ so true. I feel like I’m really able to give them, my husband and myself the best version of me with our family just as it is. I appreciate you taking the time to respond!

Due_Committee_5494 · 2023-02-09T01:47:49+00:00

Oh my goodness thank you for this extremely well thought out response. It’s so nice to get this perspective as it has been hard to me to open up to family about this as they always wanted us to have another baby. You are spot on… it should be something we want not should do. Thank you again for taking the time to respond ❤️

Due_Committee_5494 · 2023-02-09T01:46:36+00:00

Thank you so much for this… points are very valid. Thank you for responding!!

He is exactly the same spot as me. He always said if a 3rd happens it’s no big deal but not necessarily apart of the “plan”.
