We're just jumping in the TTC wagon. E was a complete surprise and I did a terrible job of telling DH because I was so shocked. I'm hoping to do better this time around. How did you tell SO you were KU? Any cute ideas?
The first time I told him when we were out walking the dog together. haha. My BFF was living with us at the time and I wanted to tell DH alone - so we went to the park with the dog and I told him.
For G, I took the HPT by myself cause DH was working til midnight. He didn't even know I had bought a test. I put the test in a gift bag and left a note for DH to wake me up when he got home. He did and I gave him the gift bag.
It was Easter morning- my DH was outside cleaning out the car to go to my parents' house. I took a test 2 days before I was suppose to have my beta drawn at my RE.... it was positive- so I stuck my head out the back door and said- " I took a test
Last time, it was just waking him up with a pee stick...lame.
This time I went out of my way to get a big brother t-shirt and put DS in it. Took DH like an hour to notice! He was so happy. It was our 4th month trying, after an additional 3-
With Nate I bought DH a "Congratulations! You Did It!" card. With Caleb, I think I just handed him the pregnancy test. Very anti-climatic. We did the Tshirt thing with the rest of the family though, which was fun.&
DD was a complete surprise, so TTC for DS I knew I wanted something different. DH is a HUGE Elvis fan, so I made him a CD of Elvis songs that all had the words "baby" in them. I designed the cover, CD label, etc. and hid it until I got my BFP.

With DS, we had been TTC, but when I got my BFP, MH was sleeping. I put the stick on his night stand next to his glasses, thinking he'd put his glasses on & see the test immediately. Uh, yeah, no. He put his glasses on, comes stumbling down the hal
When I found out I was pregnant with DS, we were literally just about to sign the papers for an IVF cycle. I ran out at work to buy a test because I still didn't have my period and took the test in the the bathroom at my office. Positi
For A we were TTC so every month he watched to see what the stick results were....lol. For J, it was our first month using OPKs and I told him to go pick up some more pregnancy tests. I took the test the morning he dropped him mom off at the airport an
Our's was pretty unbelievable actually. I'd just had an m/c and really wasn't supposed to get pregnant yet. I started feeling some of the same pregnancy symptoms early though so used an internet cheapy. I was pretty sure I saw a line so
With Oliver we had been trying for 3 years and were on our fourth and last iui cycle heading to ivf. It was the day before I was supposed to get my blood drawn and I was crazy nauseated all day so I took a test and it came back strong in seconds. It was
I didn't do anything special for DH. We had been trying for a few years and were working with an RE. I got up early, POAS and saw the line. I woke DH up to show him and his response was, "I promise I'll be excited in a little bit if you'
I usually tell DH if I'm going to test, so he was there when I got my BFP for DS. We just kept saying, "Holy sh!t!" over and over again because even though we had been trying, it was still a pretty overwhelming feeling. LOL

DD was a complete surprise so I came out of the bathroom holding the pee stick crying lol
We are TTC as well and I'm planning on trying to do something cute. It all depends on when it happens so it could be a part of a gift or something ran
