How to Suprise Husband?

I am looking for a fun/creative way to tell my husband that we are pregnant again. Last time we took the test together but this time I really wanted to suprise him but I just can't think of how to do it.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

Thanks for all the great suggestions! What I did was made a sign that said "Congratulations you are going to be a Daddy AGAIN!!" and taped the pregnancy test to it. Then I took a picture of it and uploaded the pic as the desktop background on his laptop so that when he got to work and turned on his computer it popped up. He was very excited and called me right away! He thought it was a great suprise, so happy that it worked ;-) Also, I plan on using the big sister Tshirt idea for when we are ready to tell the rest of the family!

I bought a I'm a Big Brother shirt for my son to wear at the hospital gift shop I work at. I put that on my son and had him show my husband. It worked out really well. Hope that helps.

I heard this idea on the radio. The mommy to be made tshirts that said uncle so and so.. You could make a tshirt that says... daddy again or something and wrap it up as a present and have him open it!

I took two pregnancy tests to make sure that I was pregnant and then I wrote a note to my husband "from the baby" and stuck it to the bathroom mirror where I knew he would see it before he left for work. It said something like I can't wait to meet you in 9 months and I am looking forward to getting big enough where I can kick mommy's belly and if you talk to me, I will try to communicate back though mommy's belly might get in our way. The last part was really funny because when I was pregnant the first time, my husband would push on my belly and my son would push back. Sometimes I would be sleeping and wake up to the two of them "playing"....which consisted of my husband poking at me and then the baby kicking. Very funny.

with our kids we did something fun this time around-- we kept it a secret from them until they figured it out on their own-- so by the time my belly was big enough for them to notice i was already half way through the pregnancy... it made it go faster and it was fun for the kids to find out on their own!

...of course it's not a way to tell your husband... and he would notice if you're throwing up all the time unlike kiddos... anyway just a fun idea.

I had a Tee Shirt made up that said "Daddy Under Construction" to let him know about our newly expected arrival. Might add the word "Again" and put it on his pillow under the bedspread so he found it when he was going to bed that night. This allowed for a little private time between the two of us to discuss the upcoming event uninterupted.

Assuming they have an older brother or sister, buy or make them a shirt that says "I'm The Big Brother (or sister)" and have them wear it when your husband comes home.

Have your first child where a shirt that says i'm a big brother/sister and see how long it takes him to notice what the shirt says! Congrats

My sister bought a tshirt for her oldest that said, "I'm gonna be..." on the front. ANd, on the back it said, "...a Big Brother!" Daddy loved it! They also took pictures of it and sent it to family members who were out of town!
