From pregnancy announcement mugs and puzzles to reveals that get a sibling or pet in on the action, here are 13 seriously cute ways to tell your husband you’re pregnant from real moms.

It’s always funny to watch men look around for something that’s right under their noses. It’s even cuter when they don’t know what they’re looking for. Put your positive pregnancy test somewhere he’ll find it … eventually … and wait for that big moment when he puts it all together.
