- Take him to a photo booth, pretending to be taking a complete normal shoot just for fun;
- Take 2 shots that are perfectly simple, then take out the baby beanie or any prop you’ve prepared;
- If he doesn’t get the idea, tell him that he’s going to be a dad soon!
- While he’s tearing up in surprise, capture this loving moments and you will also have some lovely photos to put in your love journal!

#7 Set up a crime scene
No. It’s not one of those scary Halloween set-ups.
Create a scene with a hand-written notice and this do-not-enter tape and wait for him to find out.
He will be shocked at first. But when he takes a closer look, it will bring tears to his eyes!
#8 The “Baby Bloomer”
This is a great way to drop the news to your husband and also to the whole family! No one will expect things to happen when you are blowing a ballon( except it may explode).
But just imagine the faces when they find out the letters on the ballon! You are the magician of the day. # Tip: To write perfectly on a balloon, blow it to almost full and start writing (with markers, avoid anything with a sharp tip). After you finish, just let the air out and there you have a “baby bloomer”.

#9 Hide-and-seek
If you are a more patient type, why not play a little hide-and-seek with your spouse? Go to your local the dollar shop and grab a set of baby products online ( a bib, a baby bottle, plush toys etc) and place them randomly in the house.
And wait for him to find out! # Tip: If he is not getting the hint for a couple days, get a baby car seat and kindly ask him to put on the car. When he unpacks the box, he will tear up with joy and surprise.
#10 Care Package
If your sweetie is always away on business trips or deployed overseas in the military, include a few baby items in the next care package you send him.
He will call as soon as he opens the box!
If he’s in deployed troops, remember to put a note in the military care package to tell him he’s a proud soldier for the country and a hero for a baby now.

#11 Look at the spoon
Dinner is a great time for revealing the exciting news, especially a romantic dinner for two.
Instead of telling him that you are pregnant directly, switch his old soup spoon with this one. And it’s going to be the best soup he has ever had.
#12 Set up a room full of surprises
