OK I know my mum is going to go absolutly mental when she finds out im pregs (in a good way)!! its all she goes on about and whenever im late for my AF shes straight at the door! well she doesnt know this time a thing and I want to surprise her

I was going to wait till xmas and wrap up a babygrow which says I love my nan on it BUT i cant wait that long and am going to tell her tonight! I would liove to do the i love my nan babygrow but i dont think I will find one just nipping to the shops! so this is where you lovely ladies come in!!!!

Do you have any other ideas that I could tell her with!! other than just telling her with words lol

Thank you so much xxxxxxxxx
 
Go and buy a cheap badge ... it doesn't matter what type. Cover it with white labels/stickers and then write 'Nanny To Be' on it.

When you go and see her tell her you have a badge she has to wear and go over and pin it on her.

Priceless :cloud9:

Have fun telling her and many congratulations to you x
 
i'd box the pregnancy test up along with anything thay says nan on it and wrap it up as a present and lether open it :)
 
I was watching 19 kids and counting last night and the daughter and law told her husband by buying a big baby bottle like for baby showers you know...put a baby doll in it then put the pregnancy test down inside it and gave it to him..took him a while to figure out what was goin on...I thought that was pretty cute...
 
yeh id wrap the test up as a present!!! hehe can u film her reaction!!! would love to see it!

I cant wait for the day when i can tell my parents
x
 
i would get her an early christmas card and write to nanny on it and then inside happy christmas, sorry i cant be there as im only tiny at the moment, but leave me in mummys tummy for another 9 months and then i will be big enough for cuddles.
or the test idea. xx
 
I would also wrap the test up as a gift in a box...SO ideal :) She wont have a clue!

Have fun telling her hun :hugs:

there is a poem somewhere on internet along the lines of what i said, so if you wanted i could have a look for it for you to put in the card? xx

That would be amazing if you could!!!!!!!!! thank you so much! xx
 
Bahaha, yeah our plans (if we were to get a bfp) were to tell my family at christmas, but waiting for christmas takes long enough anyway, let alone when you have a big announcment to make!!

You should totally film her reaction!!

yeah I know Im about at my wits end!!!:growlmad:
 
I just found this poem for the card!!!! so amazing! perfect!

I do not have a face to see,
Or put inside a frame.
I do not have soft cheeks to kiss.
I don't yet have a name.

Not yet can you hold my tiny hands,
Nor whisper in my ear.
It's still too soon to sing a song,
Or cuddle me so near.

But all that will change come this October;
When they say I am due.
I am your newest grandchild;
And I can't wait until I meet you!

All I ask between now and then
Is your love for me to grow.
I promise I'll be worth the wait;
Just think of all the joy we'll know!

So as you're waiting patiently,
Please pray lots of prayers for me.
I cannot wait to be a part
Of this wonderful family!
