How are you planning to tell hubby/partner you’re pregnant?

Question

I know for us ladies to who are actively trying, it may be hard to keep it a secret from your partner. I really want that reveal and the excitement of telling hubby. I plan to not tell him when I’m testing and if I don’t come to him saying I’m pregnant, just assume that my period came. I’ll test secretly when he’s at work. We talked about this and he agreed if I can keep it a secret when I’m testing, then he’s absolutely okay with it. ➡️ I’ve been obsessively looking on Etsy and watching videos. (I leaning towards a surprise photo shoot being we don’t have professional photos of us) I can’t wait. Things like this keep TTC’ing exciting for me. ➡️ Are any of you ladies planning a surprise even though you are trying? If you are do you have any ideas on how you want to tell your partner? 🌻 *photos are from ETSY*

Answer

He is always with me when I test. I just show him the test. I don't think it needs to be a secret or surprise: we are in this together.

My SO is obsessed with pizza. Pizza tasting is like wine tasting to him. He knows his shit lol I’ve had this in my cart for over a year. Whenever it’s time, I’d like to surprise him with this.

Answer

The first time I called my husband crying while he was at work because I was bleeding and thought I was having a miscarriage lol and I ended up not. This time I’m going to put my son in a “big brother” shirt and just see how long it takes for him to notice 😂 I wish I were more creative

Answer

Meh. I always had grand ideas of how I’d reveal it to him. Then I’d just randomly have diarrhea-of-the-mouth and, well, there ya go. Once I sat on the toilet, amazed I had a bfp, couldn’t wait to implement my ideas for a grand reveal, stood up, walked out, he wanted to get jiggy and I said “there’s no point anymore.” 😂
The next time I was going to wait because our anniversary was coming up, so I was sitting on the couch at midnight with a towel on my head eating a huge bowl of cereal and minding my own business. He gave me a funny look and I said “Shut it. I’m pregnant.”

Answer

👀 following along.
We took so long to conceive the first time that my husband knew when to expect my period and asked me every day the month it didn’t come. We looked at the test together. Hoping for better luck this time around and would love to surprise him!

Answer

Just gonna tell him. He finds these announcement ideas stupid so he can just get the stick 😂 I get where he's coming from. The second I find out, he will find out to, been trying for too long to mess about tbh

Answer

Our wedding date was originally on the 24th of this month, however due to covid we pushed it back a year to 2022. As fate would have it, I'm due on my period on the 24th so I'm really hoping february is my month 🤞 
I have it all planned out, I bought a necklace gift box the perfect shape for a pregnancy test and some elephant shaped confetti (back when we use to work together we used "elephants" as code for "baby" when I was in the early stages of pregnancy with our first, so her nursery is elephant themed. We always said there will be "lots of elephants in our future" so I want to continue this theme). I wanted to do something similar with our first, but I was just so shocked it was positive I told him as the faint line was still appearing 😂
