Something fun. How will you tell DH?!

I've always thought about how I would tell DH I was pregnant. In reality, it's hard to have a big reveal and surprise if DH knows about all the stuff that has been going into TTC and when you O and when AF is due. etc. But with that said, if you plan to do something other than just tell him flat out, whats your plan???

Re: Something fun. How will you tell DH?!

I bought a greeting card the other day that's blank inside and has little baby feet on the front. DH and I have always sealed bday or anniversary cards with some kind of version of SWAK (sealed with a kiss). We usually try to make each other guess. So I was going to seal it with either YGTBAD (you're going to be a Daddy) or SBYPW (sealed by your pregnant wife) and write a personal note inside Chat Icon


I also bought him this:

I figured I would give it to him with the card

this is so cute!! I love that idea of a variation on "SWAK"! I already bought DH baby books the first time we conceived, so I don't think I'm going to go that route this time (for the record this was the book.....I've read the beginning it's really cute/funny!):

I saw those too. The "be prepared" one is totally up his ally too. I figured I would set him up eventually with a couple good ones.

I still haven't gotten AF. I have no idea what's going on. If still nothing by tomorrow I'm going to test again with a digital.

Re: Something fun. How will you tell DH?!

I heard once that someone cooked her DH a meal of all "baby" things... I love that idea but all I can think of is baby back ribs. If anyone has other ideas let me know.

I wanted to cook some sort of dinner and get sparkling grape juice and serve it to myself, see if he notices.

Most likely I will tell him over the phone though, because he is gone so much and I won't be able to wait until he comes home.

I think it was baby back ribs, baby carrots, baby peas, and baby corn
