I used the poem that someone posted on here a while ago. I put it in a double sided frame and put a sono picture in the other side.

Re: How did you tell your parents?

My mother knits and crochets so I purchased some yarn and a baby blanket instruction book and asked her to make me a yellow blanket. She was so busy reading the instructions to see if she knew the stiches, I had to ask her "Dont you want to know why?!?!!?" She looked over her reading glasses at me as said - Are you pregnant???
I am the last person she expected to come her saying I was pg. I dont think I ever expressed a desire to have kids so she was very surprised...

We surprised her at Christmas too, by telling her the sex of the baby with a Charm for her Grandma Charm Necklace...

We put a t-shirt on our black lab that read "I'm gonna be a big brother" and for clarification, "Mommy's having a baby!"

They loved it!

I had my parents come over to see if dad can get a stain out of my dining room carpet. My inlaws are next door so dh just told them to come in and say "hi'.
I handed both moms a gift bag and said "Sorry this is late, its a late mothers day gift"...I framed pics of my digital hpt test. I could't wait for a sono pic..I still had like a week and 1/2 to go before the dr. appt....LOL I was very impatient.

Re: How did you tell your parents?

Since we got pregnant right before our wedding (but found out a few days after)... I had printed up a bunch of pictures from the wedding and put a picture of the pregnancy test at the bottom, so when they were looking though them... that was the last one they saw.

My mother's reaction was PRICELESS!!! I WISH I had it on video Chat Icon

We got oure wedding albums right when we found out we were PG, so we added a pic of the sono as the last page in their albums.

Re: How did you tell your parents?

We had just gotten home from a cruise when we took the test. We took a picture of the positive HPT and stuck it in with our vacation photos and sent them to our parents.
