22 Ways to Tell Your Husband You’re Pregnant
1. Scavenger Hunt
Here’s a simple way to tell your husband you’re pregnant – set up a scavenger hunt. You can grab these free printable cards and set it up when your husband isn’t home. Then, when we arrives, tell him you have a surprise for him, and he has to enjoy the hunt for the surprise.
However, this is for your first baby since the last hint says “we’re a family of three,” and it’s not editable!
2. “I’m Pregnant” Shirt
Do you ever feel like your husband doesn’t pay attention to what you’re wearing? Put on this shirt and wait to see how long it takes for him to read the fine print and realize that you’re pregnant!
Honestly, this could be a funny pregnancy announcement that gives you a bit of humor.
3. Use a Cupcake for a Surprise!
Set out some cupcakes when your husband gets home from work with a pregnancy announcement cupcake topper. You could also use these toppers for your baby shower!

If you want an easy way to tell your husband you’re pregnant, save the receipt when you buy the pregnancy test and lay the results on top for him to discover when he comes home. He will be surprised, and you don’t have to wait for anything to arrive in the mail to let him know!
