Pregnancy and business partner

Heyy,
I just found out 2 days ago that I'm pregnant and have wanted this for a long time, but I'm not happy at all because I'm terrified of my business partner's reaction. I started my own business in January together with a business partner. The company is still in the startup phase due to delays, and now I'm pregnant. He doesn't want children himself and doesn't like kids.
I'm afraid he'll judge me and get angry
I feel so awful that I can't enjoy something so beautiful right now
I feel guilty towards my business partner that I'm pregnant now.
What should I do with this feeling?

    I get that you're dreading telling your business partner, but please don't let it get in the way of enjoying your pregnancy! It's really tough for him that he's so against it, but he must have thought about the possibility that you might want kids soon. You also don't know how he'll react when you tell him; maybe his reaction won't be as bad as you think. I wouldn't wait too long to tell him, because the longer you wait, the worse you'll feel. Good luck, and congratulations on your pregnancy!

    Congratulations!! It's the most beautiful thing your body can give you, and I hope it will be a nice experience for you. I love being pregnant...
    But I understand if your business partner doesn't think so highly of it, and I think you should have told him before you started working together. It's fair that you feel guilty towards him, but I'll get down to business as soon as possible so you don't have to stress too much about this. Maybe his reaction won't be that bad... Good luck!

    Yeah, I'd say... tough luck, it's been such a long-held wish as you say, and don't let that ruin it.
    It's indeed the most beautiful thing that can happen to you, and not everyone just gets a baby, of course, so it's and remains a miracle that you should truly enjoy together with the person you chose to have this with, and absolutely no feeling of guilt. And uhhh, heartily congrats on your pregnancy!
