I've posted this under different categories.. but I think you guys will have better ideas..

How did you (or do you plan to) tell your husband that you're pregnant?

Looking for some really cute ideas for first time pregnancy! Thanks =)
 
Well, if he has a birthday/anniversary coming up, you could give him a gift with the "#1 Dad" slogan on it (think mug, t-shirt, etc.)

You could make him dinner and get baby peas, baby carrots, cornish hens basically anything "baby size." You could decorate in a blue and pink theme.

You could have a movie night and get movies with a baby theme.

Maybe leave some baby shoes or something near his shoes and have him ask/figure it out.

Never been pregnant, but these are just some ideas.
 
Mine is kind of a long story... My husband and I tried for nearly two years and we lost two babies. We had just reached the point where we had pretty much given up and were looking into infertility treatments after being diagnosed with unexplained infertility. I wasn't expecting pregnancy at all, after all, we thought we were infertile so when my period was late I paid no attention. I got the classic signs: dizziness, feeling sick, tired, moody, etc. My husband suspected but he didn't say anything because he didn't want to get our hopes up.

Finally, I realized I was late and I took a pregnancy test and it was positive! But because of the previous losses I went to the doctors for my betas (aka hcg levels - hcg is the pregnancy hormone). I got them and they were perfect so on the way home I stopped at the store and bought ginger ale, crackers, booties, and a bib that said "I love daddy" and gave them to my husband. He was so excited!
 
I always thought about putting the pregnancy test in a jewelery box, like for bracelets. Wrap it up and have him open it. That's what I plan to do.
