I have a "Telling my husband" predicament.

So I got my bfp yesterday (YAY!!) while my husband was out of town. He will be coming home today (finally!) around mid-afternoon. I cannot wait to tell him that I'm pregnant. It took everything in me to not tell him over the phone yesterday.

 Anyway, so my predicament is this: my parents are in town and staying with us this weekend. I am racking my brain trying to thing of a memorable way to tell him that we are having another baby, but without my parents finding out.

 What would you do? 

Just "telling him" is probably not an option. This is going to be our last child, so I wanted to make it a little special.

    I'm lurking but maybe a card or wait until your parents head out and plan something memorable tonight after your other LO is in bed.

    I would have your little one decorate a card for daddy. Write something inside about how much he was missed love, kid one and little peanut.

    Lurker here. But I think this is adorable. It's definitely something he would remember and you would have something physical to cherish to remember the moment.

    If I get my BFP this week I'm going to buy some little baby booties and wrap them up as a present. 

    You could tell him privately in your room or something at night so you parents can't see.  

     

    P.S. CONGRATS!!!

    I got my husband the Bernstein Bears Book "New Baby" and put it on DS's night table for him to read at bedtime. He cried through the entire story.
