Another child... how to convince husband?

I just turned 33 years old and have an 8 year old daughter and 3 year old twin sons. After the twins were born, my husband and I talked about not having anymore kids. He has definitely made it seem like there is no way that he would want another child. However, I'd love to have another one. I'm still young enough and I'd love to make it our last one. I know I could just talk to him about it, but I found out yesterday at my yearly exam that I am pregnant... I had no idea... just a few weeks.

Should I tell him right away or should I wait a little while? I don't want him to be disappointed about something like this. I'm so excited and want him to share my joy. Has anyone else gone through this? Will you throw some advice my way? Thanks so much. -Lilly
