I'm pregnant. Who has a creative way of telling their husband?

I want something that will be memorable.

Update:

Love the ideas. I ended up getting a bib that says I'm the big brother and put it on my son and took the food in for Daddy to feed him. He twigged pretty quick but I'm still waiting for him to say something. LOL! Finally made my husband speechless.

    lol. I made a background for my computer desktop that said "Who's the daddy now? You are! We're pregnant!." and shut the computer down. So when he got on and it loaded that was the first thing he saw. He near bout' feel outta the chair.

    Wrap up the Pregnancy test and give it too him. If you are going to have an early ultra sound you can always frame the pic for him. Maybe put together a little photo album with pictures of him as a child and slip it in and have a lable saying "Daddy's little one".

    I was too excited to think of these things when I found out I was pregnant so I just came running out of the bathroom with the test in my hand.

    ~Buy him a new father book or a father's (manly) diaper bag and enclose it in a box with a positive pregnancy test. Then wrap it up and give it to him as a gift.

    ~If you're far enough along to have a heartbeat or a sonogram, let him listen to a recording or give him a photo and then describe what it is! :) You're probably not that far, but it would also be a great way to tell the family. (Send recordings of the heartbeat through e-mail)

    ~Write a rhyming poem or limerick and recite it to him :)

    ~If you have a pet, attach a rattle or other baby thing to their collar and tell your husband to call the pet over :)

    well we both done the test together so we both saw the results together and both looked at each and laughed,cied,screamed very emotional and shocked. Well i suppose you already know and he doesn't so that's out of the question what about leaving him a note or make him a dinner and just bring it up in the conversation. Or you could just come out with it and say it as it will be memorable anyway. Good luck and congratulations xxx

    Why don't you buy a little baby-grow or a baby toy or something & wrap it up or put it in a gift box or something. Then when he opens it & looks at you say what do you think daddy?

    Hope you like my idea.

    Good luck for the future with the baby [=

    Here's something I just thought of. Get a set of those little baby keys and hide his keys...when he asks where his keys are give him those...when he gets that puzzled look in his eyes say oh, those aren't your keys, those are the baby's! You could also find a little onesie or bib that says "daddy loves me" and give it to him as a gift.

    with baby #1, even though I was so excited I wanted to puke and yell and scream on the spot, i ran out like right that second and bought a bib that says "I love my daddy" on it and wrapped it up and gave it to him. He was a little confused at first, but then caught on and was wicked excited...it's still framed hanging on our daughter's wall!!!

    congrats and let us know how you do it!!!!

    Make him his favorite meal, then come out & put a cake on the table that says "I'm pregnant!" or "You're Gonna Be A Daddy!"..I think that would be cute. He'll love it no matter how you tell him though. Congrats!

    I have posted this one before. Getting a pair of baby shoes and put in an regular shoe box. Tell your husband you got some new shoes and ask him if he likes them. Then open the box and pull out a pair of little whte baby shoes. White because it is unisex.
