Things You'll Need
- Apple Ciders
- Baby Rattles
Instructions
Set the stage. Pick a time and a place that suit your style: Reserve dinner, suggest an afternoon drive or an evening walk. Make the moment magical. Add a romantic touch by serving up sparkling cider (in lieu of Champagne). Slip into a new dress and fix up your hair, if that is important to you. Try the indirect method, if that's your style: Mention that your period is late or use a prop, like a rattle or a baby book, to get your point across. Consider integrating him into the discovery process. Tell him you think you could be pregnant, and then have him there with you to look at your test results. Try telling him by phone, if you think he'll need a little time by himself to settle into the news. It may make the process easier for you if you cannot see his facial expression.
