This is a thinker..

I was thinking of ways to reveal pregnancy to family. I was thinking something like my LO wearing a shirt thats says "Big Brother", but I don't want the first person who sees it to spoil it for everyone immediately.

Have you ever heard of the game DINGBATS? Where there is a hidden saying in a word puzzle?

ex:

ALWAYS

TOP

(always on top)

I thought it would be soooo clever to come up with a "dingbat" to get put on my LO's shirt at a family gathering. Can anyone think of one?

It would be so neat to see if anyone notices : ) It would be fun if they didn't and we had to point it out before we went home.

It doesn't have to be big brother.. it can be coming soon... sibling... any phrase that can mean we are expecting

    You could do BROTHER in really big letters = Big Brother but that may be too obvious.

    A picture of a bun on an oven....except that might be a little weird with your son wearing it.

    Maybe somehow doing mommy+ a pic of a bun in an oven 

     

    We were thinking along the same line!

    Maybe it could say

    "Mommy has a

    theoBUNven!" 

     

    With the first line being a smaller font.

    "you could do a T-shirt that says "Only Child" and on the back have it say "expires...with the babies due date". 

     

    I like this one. Very clever : )
