What are some good ways to tell my husband that we're having a girl?

Question

My husband definitely knows that I am pregnant. I am almost 19 weeks along now. He went to the first ultrasound appointment. However, I had one done two days ago and he couldn't be there because he was out of town for work. So, I found out that we're having a girl and I want a cute way to surprise him when he gets home tomorrow.

*We already had the nursery colors picked out and it's done, so no painting will be needed.

Answer 1

buy something pink for the baby

Answer 2

Get him a pink hanker chief (to cry in) with the phrase, "Its not a boy," stitched into it.

Answer 3

Buy something pink that says "Daddy's Girl" or "I love My Daddy"

Congrats on the baby girl!! So exciting!!

Answer 4

you could buy a baby outfit for a girl and let him guess it that way

congratulations on having a girl by the way

Answer 5

Buy a onesie that says daddy's little girl and tape it to your belly, then put a shirt over it. Then say honey, I want to tell you what we are having and pull up your shirt to show him.

OR

Go out looking for the room decor, look at all girly things and he'll get the hint. If he starts to gravitate towards the boy stuff tell him you won't be needing that.  

Answer 6

Get a picture frame that says something like "Little Princess" or "Daddy's Girl" or whatever and put a pic of the ultrasound in it and give as a gift

BTW - the shotgun answer was hilarious! Awesome!

Answer 7

Dont tell him.  Wait till she is born but buy a bunch of girl clothes during the pregnancy.  Just make sure you buy at least 1 boy outfit.

Answer 8

hint that u should paint a room pink in the house or something. and say all the things u would do if u had a daughter...or just scream WE'RE HAVING A DAUGHTER!!!!

Answer 9

Stand in the kitchen when he gets home and tell him that your belly hurts. After he comments tell him that your sure if he kisses it, it will make it all better. Make him lift your shirt to kiss your belly when he does have "Daddy's Little Girl" wrote on your stomach. I bet his look would be priceless!  

Answer 10

Buy him a shotgun for when she gets older.

Answer 11

is it unexpected or expected that you'd have a baby?

i think either way he'll be excited but scared, it seems al men/dads are that way

ever seen full house? she tries to tell her husband through pictionary. like "cheese(she's), haming (having), a baby ( a baby)"

or say " you know what we've always wanted" make him guess and give him hints. if he doesn't get it then just find another way to say it.

show him the test results while he's a tiny bit busy or not busy at all and smile ( if thats what your feeling) so he can smile too.

put you hand on your stomach, place his hand there ann say, " feel anything?" he'll say no and you say " not know but in 9 months. . ." and let it come to him

other than that i dont know how you'd tell him but good luck!

Answer 12

Maybe buy some girl friendly products like little girl baby clothes and some pink paint (to paint the room if you're going to) and let that greet him. I think he'll get the picture.

Answer 13

say baby i got some good news "where having a girl"

Answer 14

Added  note,: use  caution  when you  are  painting,  can  be  harmful fumes.  Several  cute  ideas  here.   If  your  trying  to  make  it  fun,  put  pink  flowers  on  table  and  any thing  else decorate  as  much  pink you  can. I  wonder  if  they  make  cards about  this,  or  get  a  pink fancy blank  card and  write  IT IS  A  Girl.  Congrats!

Answer 15

Maybe grab him a box of cigars with the pink band and tell him this is for future use.  Congratulation and best wishes.

Answer 16

You can give him a gift box wrapped with pink wrapping paper and when he opens it up there will be a little pink baby shoe ;)

Answer 17

maybe when you're out shooping stop in the baby section looking at girly things and be like " ooo this is adorable!, soo cute!, wouldn't this look great in (room of choice in your house here)" maybe give him hints and he'll get the clue. or ask him many questions such as what's a pretty girls name? so nstead of telling him head on you get to have some fun while he tries to understand. and purchase something girly like and if he asks why are you buying that? just smiling at him and look at your stomach and he will know!

best of luck!

Answer 18

I am using my husbands account so please don't think I'm a guy.  I just found out Thursday that I am having a girl so I called my hubby and told him that I had good news and bad news.  The good news was they were able to tell what we were having, the bad news was that we had to start saving money for prom dresses and a wedding gown.  He got the picture right away and said he really liked being told that way.

Answer 19

If he doesn't want a girl, make sure to remind him that it's the sperm that determines the s*x of the baby, not the egg. That's a fact, by the way.

Good luck. Maybe you should get a new husband along with the new baby.

Answer 20

just say it we're having a girl !!!

the look on his face will probably be priceless.

Answer 21

I bought my daughter a onesie thats said daddy's little princess, and a little pink bouncer. He was very excited :), I thought it was cute

Answer 22

Buy a onesie or a bib that says, "Daddy's little Princess"...or something along those lines, and wrap it up in regular gift paper and give it to him as a "just because" present!

Answer 23

a friend of mine hide little pink bows all over her house. It took her boyfriend a little while to work it out, but it was great fun

Answer 24

go to babies r us or target or something and find a onsie that says "daddys girl" or daddys princess or something along those lines and put it in a box and give it to him? my boyfriend knew we were having a girl but i still bought him a onsie and he LOVES it.

Answer 26

Answer 27

buy a picture frame with "our daughter" engraved on it or "It's a girl" and wrap it up in plain white paper (maybe with a pink bow?)  Obviously, you'll be able to use it for the first picture of your beautiful daughter.
