 I think you should start it out with the simple things that you can express freely with him, like how much you love him ect. and how much your missing him.
Then tell him how you are, and how things are at home. And then tell him you have some good news, and tell him your going to have a baby together, that your three weeks gone and you want to keep it (if you do). All the very best of luck and congratulations sweetheart. xxx

if its done by letter than you can think about it more carefully and choose your words. if it were me then i would start off casually just write saying how much you love him and that you miss him while he is away and that you will always support him. and then say that you've got some news and that your really excited and that your pregnant. tell him how far gone you are and how you feel. ask him what he thinks about it?seriously, just enjoy this. he is gonna be thrilled, you both should be its an amazing even in your lives. there is no subtle way to tell someone your pregnant, just do it with love :) and again good luck with it and best wishes :) xxx

jaylee kristen is verified as being by the original poster of the questionYes,it is his baby. I cannot talk to him on the phone I can only write letters at the momment and I have no problem with tell ing him I just need to know how to start the convo out.and I am already 3weeks pregnant so there is a possibility that I will have the baby before he gets back. I didn't know I was pregnant. until the other day.

 Is the baby his? You should tell him even if it's not. I would tell him over the phone and not through a letter if you can. You don't want him to come home to an 8 month pregnant girlfriend, or a new baby he didn't know existed. Trust me, he'll be much more upset to find out that way.
As for the healthy pregnancy, eat well and be sure to take prenatal vitamins. This is obvious, but don't drink. You should be going in for check ups and ultrasounds as well. Getting prenatal care is very important because oftentimes, if there's a problem, the doctors will find it before it gets serious.

And you could end up making him feel preety bad about him self.

just tell him outright, sit down together and tell him whats happened :) for a healthy pregnancy just relax for a start :)
eat well, small exercise is okay but take it easy, see your doctor and they will get you all the medical info you need and set you up with antenatal classes and scans, dont smoke or drink alcohol or take drugs, make sure you keep up with your doctors visits etc, if you get any unusual signs such as bleeding or strong cramps then see a midwife/doctor asap... if you want any pregnancy advice, im happy to help :) good luck and congratulations :) xxx

I would personally go to a birth control/sex clinic to be spoken to about the needs of a healthy pregnancy. Or simply as your G/P what ever question you have.
As for your boyfriend you should tell him as soon as you can, whenever you can because the more time he has to discuss the pregnancy and birth of your child with the people he works with the better.
Good luck chuck.
