congrats! weren't you the one stockpiling
baby goods? maybe it wasn't such a bad
idea after all!
good luck!
sorry, i'm not good at creative ways to
tell dh. i just wrote him a sappy card
about how much i love him and at the end
said something like, "and i hope you're as
excited as i am about having a baby".
i know how i'll tell him about the next
one though!

congratulations!!!
Well my pregnancy wasnt planned so i just
blurted it out to him because i was in
total shock.
I would probably cook him a nice dinner,
crack a can open for him and then tell
him.
Theres an idea for you. Good luck! Hope
you get the reaction your hoping for!!!

I am a hopeless romatic so I have a few
Ideas.
First I would cook him dinner or order in
and do it all casually like any other day.
Rent, order, or watch a movie on the tv
about babies and casually say. "I love
kids and just think in 8 more months we
will be enjoying our own bundle of joy".
Make sure you have a congradulations
you're a father card and maybe some cider
or champaign on the side to celebrate
after you tell him.
I have other ideas if thats to simple or
boring.

Or you could get some books with the word
"Daddy" in the title, wrap them up all
nice, and have a little note or card on
top that says, "You're going to need
these."

This Is How I Told Mt Husband

It was Valentine's day when I found out
that I was pregnant so I took a small box
that would make it look like I got him a
gold chain or something like that but
instead I put the positive pregnancy test
in it. He was totally not expecting that.
He was looking at it and was saying '' Oh
my god you're pregnant!!!! ''
I thought that it was a pretty neat way to
tell him. Anyways that was 5 yrs ago. I am
now 12wks pregnant and for this one I just
woke him up at like 6 in the morning and
told him ''I'm pregnant'' We were in shock
a bit more for this one 
Anyways good luck with which way you
decide. I am sure that he will be excited
no matter which way you choose to tell
him.
Have a happy and healthy nine months.

Thanks so much guys...tones of great
ideas, kaerbear, i like yours.
We have two puppies/dogs, so I made signs
and hung them off their colar. One said
'your gonna be a daddy' , and the other
one said "im gonna be a big brother'
it took him a couple of reads...then he
started getting excited saying i am i
am...it was adorable, then we jumped
around for a few more minutes until I felt
sick. haha

changetable/dresser and a crib...and even

our friends and family thought we were a
bit nuts...i am so glad now to have all
that.
