If contraception was being used, then you have to sit him down and calmly explain that your pregnant as soon as possible. That its an accident not planned to trap him, that you want to keep the baby.
Let him get used to the idea, it will be a shock as it is for you, but if your intent on keeping it then he may stick around or he may not.Either way he will have financial responsibility for the next 18 years.
Its only been 3 months so your a new couple its hard to say how he will react to the thought of responsibility or long term relationship when you barely know each other.
Good luck

Show him the test. Talk to him. The sooner the better.
