DH/SO/BF that you were pregnant???? Looking for ideas. I am hoping this was my month for #2.

When Ii tested positive with dd, I just showed him...not too original!!! I am hoping for a better bang this time! (I didn't mean to make that sound dirty by the way...)

TIA

This is what I did for our first. I rented the movie parenthood! lol


We watched it together and I said "Hey I can't wait till that happens to us!" Dh said, me either "Well, I'm glad you feel that way!" and I showed him the results. Not very origional but he liked it. For our second I bought the movie and let him open it! He knew right away! lol

Are you a M.O.M-Mom of Many? Find other M.O.M's

Hehe...... I have thought this one through and through. I got pregnant with our 1st out of wed-lock and only dating for a year. Not living together but were sort of serious ...... now we are happily married with 2.


Anywho-


I left a note on the door that led him on a treasure hunt through the whole apartment.......... at the end I left a cigar and book titled "pregnancy for dummies" Hahaha.

Hello There!

My husband is semi old fashioned and pretends to be VERY old fashioned (it is really cute usually and works for us:)...so, when he came home from work I was in the kitchen cooking dinner--barefoot. I asked him, "how is it that you like your women?" and of course he said, "barefoot and in the kitchen" and I said "aren't you forgetting something?" and then he knew. It was very cute!

Good luck...I am sure that there are scores of ideas out there.

Congrats,

Gen

but...i bought a card that has a picture of a bun in the oven on the front to tell my mom.

Delurking to say what I did....

I really did a deep clean on the house, cooked a big meal and used the good table wear. I was barefoot in a dress and posed to light candles when he walked in the door.

We hadn't been trying and our dd was just over a year. On his plate I had wrapped a small pair of boxing gloves with a note asking "Are you ready for a second round?"
