Best Ways to Break the News You're Pregnant

Forget about a phone call -- these real mamas came up with creative ways to reveal their pregnancies.
Lisa Doucet I Love Grandma

You're pregnant! Now comes the fun part. How will you break the BIG news? The possibilities are endless -- here are some of our favorite ways real moms shared the news.


We told our parents by taking each of them out to lunch and giving our mothers "just a little something we saw and thought they would like." The gift was a wrapped bib that said "I Love Grandma." It took a few seconds for them to realize what the bib meant and their reactions were shock then complete happiness and tears. An amazing moment!
