I went with the bun in the oven because I thought if nothing else it will kinda be funny. Hubby didn't get home until about eight and after I kissed him hello I told him I had made him something and it was in the oven. He got all excited and headed straight over and opened the oven.....and then gave me a very confused look. Lol so I asked "don't you like it?" And he said he didn't get it so I said "I made you a bun in the oven" at this point he got it but seemed reluctant to freak out so I just blurted out that I was pregnant and then he started screaming and high five-ing me repeatedly (men ***rolls eyes***) and picking me up and generally crushing me :) just the reaction I was looking for! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390990 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 21:26:04 +0000 IcebergMom 390990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lillybelle: let us know what you did and how it went!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390949 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 20:41:01 +0000 Smurfette 390949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390925 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 20:14:37 +0000 ladyfingers 390925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390616 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 13:13:23 +0000 MrsH 390616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No suggestions but congrats!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390609 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 12:48:28 +0000 lolabee 390609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lillybelle: CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I have been carrying the test around all day like a total goof and keep checking it because I still can't believe it! I haven't decided how to tell the hubby yet but I am loving the ideas! I am torn between getting him diapers or an outfit and having him open that or I was thinking of taking the funny approach and telling him there is a surprise in the oven for him (it isn't unusual for me to bake him something) and then put a bun in the oven and see if he gets it lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390547 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 11:17:10 +0000 HLK208 390547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390544 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 11:13:16 +0000 .twist. 390544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!!

I just shoved the test in his face (the line was so faint he didn't believe me at first LOL). </p> <p>Have you decided how you will tell him the news?! I can't wait to hear!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390486 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 10:02:44 +0000 glimmersnaps 390486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!!</p> <p>I also just found out I'm pregnant. I was having symptoms so even though I didn't tell him before taking the test, he kinda suspected. So I just came downstairs and told him "It's confirmed" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390465 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:46:25 +0000 shopaholic 390465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations sweetie! I'm so happy and excited for you! Maybe ask him if he can meet you for lunch? I remember it was sooo hard to wait all day. Then you can just say something like you can't eat this or that because it's bad for the baby. Just casually slip that in and wait for his reaction? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390440 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:25:25 +0000 sslm 390440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg.

Tell him he got a "delivery" while he was at work. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390426 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:11:07 +0000 sorrycharlie 390426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yayy congrats! I second videotaping it - this is easy enough because you can pretend to be checking a text or something! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390423 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:06:25 +0000 Bao 390423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my gosh congrats momma! I just put a baby blanket and diapers in a bag with a pregnancy test, ok 2 taped to it. The significance of the diapers were DH had never changed one in his life so it was time to start ;) you could do a cute onesie...or take him out to dinner to celebrate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390420 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:05:30 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 390420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390418 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 09:01:19 +0000 Cherrybee 390418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is AMAZING news!! Congratulations. How about this: put the positive test inside a newspaper on the table. Sellotape it on just in case he picks the paper up (you'll see where I'm going with this in a minute). When your DH gets in, give him your saddest, most defeated face and say "I've cancelled our appointments next week. There's just no point us going..." When he asks why, say "have a look at page eight (or whatever)" When he turns to the page, there will be the test! </p> <p>How's that?? Too complicated?!!</p> <p>Or, if that's a bit much - just say "there's something I need to tell you before our appointments" as if you're confessing something. Then hand him the test!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holy-moly-bfp-anyone-have-ideas-how-to-tell-dh-when-he-gets-home-tonight#post-390404 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 08:53:54 +0000 chopsuey 390404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!!!! :D </p>
