Any Idea on How you Told your/his family
No I am not pregnant yet, but I am trying to figure a good way to tell his parents that we are pregnant when it happens. I already know i want to have them over for dinner but I am not sure of a fun way to tell them.
Can you ladies share some of your stories on how you told his parents/your parents?
Thanks.

Re: Any Idea on How you Told your/his family
We had our mothers over for dinner a couple weeks after Christmas. After dinner we gave them each a gift and told them it was something we saw on sale after Christmas and HAD to get it for them. It was a picture of our first ultrasound and a bib that said "I Love Grandma"...they both loved it

We gave our families a pink and blue carnation with a note from baby saying can't wait to see you in feb... They thought we were getting another dog because we have 2 and we got them so excited that we were having babies when we brought each dog over hahahahaha lol!!!!!

Re: Any Idea on How you Told your/his family
We gave them a bib that said "I love my Grandma" or "I love my Grandpa" and then used a diaper pin to attach a note from the baby that said "Can't wait to meet you on Feb. 24th! Love Baby Xxxxx"
This time I got Sarah a t-shirt that says "I'm going to be a Big Sister!" that she's going to wear on Thanksgiving. We'll take a pic of her in it to send that am to DH's parents in FL and my dad in GA.

Re: Any Idea on How you Told your/his family
It was Christmastime when I found out I was pregnant so we wrapped up "I Love Grandma & I Love Grandpa" bibs and gave them to them as gifts-all wrapped up. It was definately a suprise since we were just recently married and the looks of excitement were PRICELESS-my mom almost screamed from excitement and tears so much she almost fell off her chair (can you tell she wanted to be a grandama ? Here are some pics of my mom and dads reactions: Image Attachment(s):
