How did you announce BFP to husband?

ckylesworld · Apr 10th, 2012, 13:14 PM

Im hoping to get a BFP soon and really would like to hear cool and creative ways to tell hubby. Anyone have any ideas?

The one I like best so far is to make him a card and on the outside put "Your are my lover, my best freind and my husband...open it up and put and now a DADDY!"

Before I went to work I stopped by a maternity clothing store and bought a shirt that said "mommy in training". When I got home from work that evening I walked in the house wearing it.

I wish I'd done something as creative! I walked upstairs with the 3 pregnancy test (1 clearblue) and said..."I think you need to turn over", he did and I showed him the tests. He did a double take which was hilarious and then pulled me in for a

Well it didn't turn out that great. I was expecting him to see and have a big reaction. Like "Oh my God!!!! You're Pregnant?!" or run up and give me a giant hug or something. Instead he had such a blank look on his face and said very calmly "Are you pregnant?". He wasn't expecting it to happen so quickly and I think he was too shocked to act shocked.

I have been thinking about that too lol when I get my bfp(hopefully this week!) I'm thinking of making a special dinner and wrap his knife and fork in a "I love you daddy" bib LOL then if he doesn't get it, I'll give him the test.

I know I won't get a chance to 'surprise' him - he'll want to be there when I test! lol He hates the idea of me doing it alone - he'll be waiting outside the door and shouting through

With my first pregnancy I went and bought a baby bottle...put the hpt inside. When I got home from work that night I told hubby there's something in my bag for him..he thought it was sweets...well, he was sooo excited when he saw the bottle and hpt!
