So, DH's best friend and his wife just found out they're expecting, she's 9 weeks. He was talking to him tonight while gaming and I overheard him say congrats on them having a girl and of course I'm like, whaaa? Didn't her pee stick like, JUST dry? I thought maybe she found out through the blood test so I asked and nope... DH tells me that the baby's heart rate was high and that meant they were having a girl.
Since you can't gif IRL, I shut my mouth and came to tell you guys instead.
DH had a major SS moment last night too! I was telling him about a TB post where the girl thought everyone due in June was having girls and she asked if anyone was having a boy. People responded that they were having velociraptors and rabid squirrels. I thought the thread was hilarious
DH said "you guys are so mean, why can't she ask if anyone is having a boy?"

Love this. My DH hasn't shown SS symptoms yet but he is quite overwhelmed. Once we had bought a cot and a pram, he said "Well, now we've pretty much got everything so that's good." I showed him my list of things I need to research and look around for (just day to day things not cute clothes etc), he was all of a sudden very glad my mum has started getting us some things!
I'm right there too! My DH is a total SS and AW. Today he says to me, "So I'm envisioning our gender reveal being really exciting." And I was like, "Babe, I told you that I want it to be low key...food, hanging out, and a fun way to announce baby's sex." He looked at me like I was crazy and said, "I hear ya but wouldn't it be even better if we invited everyone we know, hired a photographer, got super dressed up and made a big entrance by walking down the spiral staircase while dramatic music blares and colored balloons fall down on all the guests? Everyone could cheer and it would be really awesome!" For the love of snowflakes everywhere.....what is wrong with the man??

My DH said this a week or so ago. He was awke before me but still in bed. I was laying on half of my right side half of my belly and he put his hand on my belly, which was really hot and woke me up . And I said what's up? He answered: you're gonna squish the baby! Back of my mind I'm looking at him like really dude, really?

My SO was convinced we're having a girl, not because of any OWT's but because when I was in the hospital on xmas eve, he turned the tv on and the first thing that came out of the speakers was the word Eva as wall-e was on (which is our baby girls name). Turns out we are having a girl so he's even more convinced that wall-e was sending us a sign!
He's also said the "you guise are so mean" comment before when I told him about the shit storm that happened a couple of weeks ago. Sigh!
These stories are awesome. Mine hasn't been much of a SS, but at one point he was asking about diapers and if disposable ones are biodegradable. Now, I have no clue where this came from since he didn't even keep recycling organized when he lived alone. After I explained that no, they're not at all, he got really into the idea of cloth diapers and said he wants to get matching wool shorts/cover ups for him and our son.

I'm extra proud of my husband right now. He totally gets the struggle with the Bump and he helped me come up with a troll post. He also encourages me to contact their PR reps and so on. He's so devoted to the cause! PS: I know this isn't really related to irl SS but I've been wanting to post this and it seemed semi relevant.

We didn't have a planned pregnancy. DH was terrified and a little angry (first time dad at 30 was apparently too young). Anyways, he looked over my paperwork from the doctors office that I had to fill out.. It took 3 weeks to get in as it was right around thanksgiving and they had vacation days etc. ANYWAYS.. The nurse suggested I pick up some over the counter prenatal vitamins while I wait for my appointment, so on the paperwork when it asked if I was on any medications, I listed prenatals.
The idiot confronted me about taking pills that "helped get me pregnant". Needless to say we had a knock down drag out fight, where I explained that the pull out method was not a method at all and he knew why I was pregnant. He felt like a moron when I explained what prenatals are.
Thank god he's 100% on board now. I almost murdered him the first 2 weeks.
Mine just got into an argument with me over a sex reveal. I had suggested a long time ago doing the painted hands into a heart on a white shirt since I have the paint and it was uncomplicated. He decides today that it's "Not creative enough" and we need to involve sweets, so he finds the world's most elaborate cut-out Super Mario one-up mushroom cookie design and pouts when I point out 1. That it FAR exceeds my baking skill level 2. The amount of time and energy and cost going into it is just excessive. I found a local bakery that makes ROUND cookies with a one-up mushroom on it and suggest we order those but noooo, they're round! Not cut out!
I told him to do what he wants. I am making filled cupcakes for my family and m&m cookies for work so at this point he can do whatever he wants. I will have nothing to do with these cookies.
