Read more about each of these pregnancy announcement ideas below.

1) Hide the pregnancy test

Put your positive pregnancy test somewhere you know your partner will stumble across it. If you use a digital pregnancy test instead of the ones with lines, make sure you take the test within eight hours of hiding it as the word “pregnant” disappears after 15-48 hours depending on the brand!

2) Tell him with a t-shirt

Let your shirt do the talking by wearing a fun graphic tee, like one of these:

• “Holy Guacamole I’m Pregnant!”
• “Preggo-Saurus”
• “Pregnant AF”
• “Bun in the Oven”

3) Tell him with a book

: Surprise him with a gift — a wrapped book like Be Prepared: A Practical Handbook for New Dads or The Expectant Father: The Ultimate Guide for Dads-To-Be and watch the expression on his face as he puts the pieces together!

4) Gift him a onesie with a personal message

Wrap a baby onesie for your partner and make it meaningful depending on his hobbies. A few cute ideas:

• For the sports fan: “Dad’s Top Draft Pick” onesie or a onesie with the logo of his favorite sports team
• For the golfer: “I Like Big Putts and I Cannot Lie” onesie
• For the beer lover: “Locally Brewed” onesie

5) Put a bun in the oven

Put a bun in the oven, turn the oven’s timer on, then when it goes off tell your partner you made them a special treat they need to take out of the oven. See how long it takes for them to put two and two together!

6) Say it with treats

Buy your husband his favorite candy or treat and attach this cute printable note to the front of the package: “If I’m going to get fat so are you”

7) Tell him with booze

Buy him a case of his favorite beer or a bottle of his favorite wine and put a sign on it with your due date: “Drink up daddy. Your designated driver expires _____”

8) Tell him on a pizza box

Order a pizza for dinner and write “I’m Pregnant” on the inside of the lid, along with your positive pregnancy test (make sure the lid is on!). He won't be expecting that with his pepperoni pizza!

9) Create an eviction notice for his man cave

Put an eviction notice up on the door of his office or man cave to let him know it will now be needed for nursery space.

10) Bake a cake or cupcakes

Include a special message on top of the sweet treat with icing or sprinkles: “You’re Going to be a Parent!”

11) Break the news with a pair of baby shoes

Buy a pair of baby booties and tape the positive pregnancy test into the lid of the box. If you want to get really sneaky, you can put the baby shoes in a men’s shoe box to really throw him off!

12) Make a homemade card

Make him a card with a sweet poem inside: “Roses are red, violets are blue, I have a secret and here’s the clue.” You can either wrap the positive pregnancy test or tape the test inside the card!

13) Let the fortune cookie tell him his fate

If Chinese takeout is a staple in your house and your partner always opens his fortune cookie — get a custom cookie made to break the news that you’re expecting!

14) Set up a push notification

Download a baby tracking app on your husband’s phone and set up push notifications. He’ll never expect to see the words “You’re 5 weeks pregnant today! Baby is the size of a poppy seed” on his phone!

15) Order a diaper delivery

When a box of diapers mysteriously appears at your door, your partner will surely be confused. When he sees the box is addressed to him, he’ll realize you’ll soon have a baby around who needs those diapers!

There are so many fun ways to tell your partner you're expecting. Whether you prefer to keep it simple and break the news over morning coffee, or spell it in the sky with an airplane, either way creates a very special moment to share. Next comes even more excitement, planning for your little one’s arrival!
