Hi Cupids!

So - kind of a fun question for you all. I just found out that I'm pregnant with baby #2, and I'm not sure how to tell my husband. He's gonna be stoked, and I thought that maybe I'd have a little fun with it. Any suggestions?

How about telling him "Ive got something for you that you'll need to loose a lot of weight to get into!"

He might be thinking a man g string, so imagine his surprise when you give him a neatly wrapped little babygro!

It should be fun for you , watching his face as the penny drops and a good scout motto is to always be prepared, which you will be!

But maybe thats old fashioned for you.Maybe you need to tell him between the sheets!

YouWish agony auntHEY TOI!! Congratulations to you!!!

How did you let him know the first time around??

I'm curious, because it would be fun to find out how you told him about the first one, and then put a spin on it!

I say take him out for dinner, and give him a present with either a message in it or the positive pregnancy test in a letter opener box or something like that. Or a T-shirt with something about a new dad on it. Or do a Breaking Bad and spell "New Dad" on his plate in bacon (NOT crystal meth! heh)

Or say something out of the blue in a conversation like "Which college do you think our second kid should go to?" or "I wonder whose eyes our second child will have", or "what would be a good name for our new son or daughter"? Talk about the "Holy S***" moment on his part followed by the huge smile! You could pull that one in front of both him AND your parents/in-laws. :)

Either way, GREAT NEWS! I'm so happy for you!

CindyCares agony aunt Hey, congratulations !

Send him a letter - envelope, stamp and all. " Dear X, this is to advise you not to take any committments or plan any trips on or around ( date of birth ) because that will be the time when I'll be coming a long way just to meet you. I am very excited, and I just can't wait to know you , because I have been told that you are the best Dad ever ! See you soon, with love - your second child, "Jane" or "John" Smith "

Honeypie agony aunt~congratulations!~

I love the "eviction notice" and the present for daddy ( a pair of gift-wrapped baby booties) or a picture of a positive pregnancy test in a card. Or have your child #1 wear a shirt that says: "I'm going to be a big sister/brother".

Have fun with it!

wrathykins agony auntCongratulations!!

I've seen a few reveal videos posted on facebook recently, one of which a woman asked her husband to get something out of the oven, and when he opened it there was a literal bun and a scan photo haha! Maybe something along those lines?!
