    Smile Quick!! Need some cool ideas for telling DH!

    I think I am pregnant (will check later this morning with another test) and if I am I want to tell DH this arvo when he gets home from golf trip. Last time I told him it was a really boring "oh, So I think I'm pregnant" statement. The reason we were so worried was because I had m/c a few weeks before. So anyway, fingers crossed this time is good I want to tell him in a happy way!! Any cool or dif ideas?

    P.S. I prob won't be doing the serving of "baby" foods for dinner .ie veal, baby potatoes etc.!!!

    There was another thread somewhere where someone suggested getting some bread mix and having a bun baking when he came home. Then waiting for him to notice the smell and telling him casually that you had a "bun in the oven".

    I like the bun in the oven idea!
    Whats the first thing he does when he gets home?
    If he has a shower, maybe you could tape the POAS to the wall.
    Or above the loo if he goes there first.

    Congrats & goodluck!!

    We had friends send us a card that had a picture of them as a couple on the front (you could just use a photo taken of yourself).

    Inside the card they wrote...

    Cost of professional portrait........ $50
    Cost of postage stamp......... 50 cents

    Realising that there are actually THREE people in this photo...... PRICELESS

    Just a thought. Any thing big that you can think of that needs to be moved or something??
    Something that you could ask him to do then say
    'I would, but I can't in my condition...'

    Then just hope it doesn't go straight over his head.

    Hi Jordie,
    I dont have any great ideas for you, but would love to know which idea you chose, and your DH's reaction to your cute way of letting him know! So happy for you both, that you are having a baby! Congratulations!
