Six months back while I and my best friend sat down to our weekly ritual of playing “Scrabble”, I found the phrase “YOU ARE GOING TO BE AN AUNT” on the board. While, I was gushing over joy, I realized there can be so many fun ways to announce your pregnancy. So, I thought I will compile a list of 10 ways to make the announcement to your partner!

So, here you go – Take your partner by surprise in the most creative way 🙂

1.Text Message Beep Beep Send a clue “1+1=3?” No matter how cheesy it sounds, it is sure to bring a smile on his face.

2. Bake a cake and write “ Baby on its way”. The appreciation goes beyond just baking skills for the day!

3. Fortune Cookie – Use a tweezer to pull out the fortune and write in your message – “Ten little toes, one little nose, boy or girl, nobody knows”.

4. Post it! – Post a note on the Microwave/Fridge(The first thing your husband checks in the  morning) – “ The only thing better than having you as my husband is our baby having you as his/her dad”. You can thank me later for his reaction, yeah!

5.Coffee shop Menace – Your next stop at the Starbucks – Order for 3 and ask the guy to write “ Mom”, “Dad” and “Coming soon”. That will be some entertainment for the spectators too when your husband starts jumping with joy.

6. Get a jigsaw puzzle of white cards and paint “You are going to be a dad” – Shuffle it and leave it for him to fix. Watch his jaw drop when he gets it finally!

7.Good Morning – Take a permanent marker and write “We’re pregnant” at the bottom of his coffee mug . Give him his morning coffee and talk away till he finishes the coffee, don’t miss taking a picture when he hits the bottom.
