I put a bun in the oven! lol I asked him to go check the dinner for me and when he opened the stove, there was a bun in there with a little note that said "hello daddy, mommy’s got a bun in the oven"
another cute idea is to take a picture of the positive test –you may have to go get a digital test and take it so it actually says pregnant……..guys aren’t so good with the 2 pink lines or cross sign LoL– Then put the picture in a frame that says "I love my daddy!"
Bring him a beer after dinner with the test taped to it. Haha!
buy sone little whit socks and put them in his packed lunch for work / on in his bag or pocket xx
a "baby" themed dinner, with baby back ribs, baby corn, etc. etc. or have your older child walk around in a big sister/brother shirt for a few days
i decorated our suv with baby rattles, streamers, balloons, etc…. i went to partycity and had so much fun decorating it!! then i went to his job on his lunch break and the front desk called him out. everyone was so happy for us! we had so much support. and boy was he SURPRISED AND HAPPY!! i also made his favorite lunch and i got a bottle of the welches grape that look like a bottle of wine and we had a wonderful lunch in the park.
I made a baby box. I bought a gift box and filled it with anything I could think of: "I love Daddy" bibs, baby socks, booties, a hat, pacifiers, a rattle, a onesie…anything baby related. I put a card in there that said "Daddy- Thank you for the genes. I love you. Love, Baby." I tied the bow over the box and told him I had a present for him.
send him a congrats card with your message inside, to your house and make sure it arrives a morning,say saturday, when you know he’ll be in the house to pick up the mail. Change your writing on the envelope so he has no clue. OR if you are both out shopping at your supermarket, ask them to announce it over the tanoy for him-that would be really good. Whenever you decide what you are gonna do, pls udate on this as I would like to know. xx
I never had much of a chance to tell him – at least not in a creative way. The first time was on the phone, and I had to tell him then because my friend was there when I took the test and I wante him to know first not her. Second time he was there when I took the test. This last time he had run to his parents house with the kids, dropped me off at home to take the test because we had been trying, and we suspected something, and he came home. I was in such shock that in the 5 minutes he was gone I took 3 tests – and had them sitting on the counter when he got home. I was just sitting there crying. I’m sure his first thoughts were "oh gosh! Here we go again!" hehe!
But congrats on the baby! Hope all goes well for you!
Don’t say a word. Just wait for him to notice.
I am boring – I did a test without knowing i was doing it as i was in a world of my own, couldnt believe my eyes, ran down stairs and handed my husband the stick shaking so bad.
Wasnt an unwanted baby, was a surprise baby.
We had been trying for a baby for a long time and 6 weeks before we miscarried, before we knew we were pregnant so we both got it into our minds we were not ment to have a baby.
As i was standing in the living room shaking with tears runnin down my face from the shock of it all, he was sat on the sofa with the biggest smile on his face – other then our wedding day the year before, i had never seen him so happy.
I have no idea how u can tell ur husband this time around – only thing i would say tho, do it as a family with ur little 1 there with u both.
U could always cook a lovely meal for the 3 of u and sit there talkin to ur little 1 and ask if he/she would like a little brother or sister next year and then ask ur husband "would july (if thats the month ur due) be nice to have another baby???), see what he says and just smile at him so u can see the penny drop on his face – let him put 2 and 2 together.
Congratz on the new baby
I don’t have kids yet, but I think it would be fun to go and buy one of those little bibs, or onesies that say "I love my daddy" or "worlds best daddy" or something like that and wrap it up and give it to him.
