How To Tell Your Husband You Are Pregnant – 8 Ways To Create A Sweet Memory Of The Event

  • The moment you break the news to your husband about your pregnancy is definitely going to be a moment to remember for the rest of your life. Instead of just telling him straight out “You are going to be a father!”, why not spend some time to apply one of these 8 interesting ways to tell your husband he is going to be a father…
    Arrange with your favorite restaurant to surprise your husband with some wine midway through your dinner to let him know you are going to have a baby. If the restaurant has a band, ask them to play a song that you like and dedicate it to the “new father” by announcing it to the whole restaurant.
  • Design a little treasure hunt game at home and drop hints to your husband on where to find the next clue which finally leads to a prize. If you want to be really cheeky, write a message like “You are going to be a father” on your chest and tell him in the final clue that his prize is underneath your clothes.
  • Tell your husband you’re going to give him a little present about 10 months from the time you break the news to him. It should not take too long for him to figure it out.
  • Go shop for some baby products and put them in places where your husband will see them. You could get some baby books, diapers, clothing and other baby items and put them on his desk or in his suitcase to surprise him.
  • If you already have a kid, purchase a custom shirt with the words “Big brother/sister to be!” and get him or her to wear it and show it to your husband.
  • Squeal at the top of your voice to fool your husband into thinking you are in some sort of danger at home. When he arrives, flash him your best cheeky grin and show him your pregnancy test kit with the positive result!
  • Prepare dinner for your husband with a variety of baby carrots, peas, corn and other mini vegetables and serve them on baby dinnerware.
  • Send a big bouquet of flowers and a card to your husband’s office to let him know you are pregnant. Most men do not receive flowers at work so this is really going to surprise him.

I hope these ideas will give you something to work on when you tell your husband about your pregnancy. I look forward to that day and wish you all the best.

Pubic Shaving For Men – 3 Pubic Hair Removal Methods A Man Should Avoid

When I started my web site, I was not expecting over 30% of my web site visitors to enter my site from the male pubic hair removal web pages. A lot of men are interested in learning how to remove their pubic hair but do not know how to start as most of the pubic hair removal products and services are catered mainly for women.

Let’s take a look at the popular pubic hair removal techniques used by women to find out why they may not work for men.

Why Brazilian Waxing Isn’t Practical For Men

Some Brazilian waxing studios accept male customers at a higher price. Unfortunately, most men are reluctant to visit a waxing studio as they feel extremely out of place there.

Some men will find the prospect of showing their private parts to a total stranger very embarrassing. The pulling of hair from the ultra sensitive skin of the testicles isn’t a good idea. Most women feel sore after the wax strips are removed from their pubic region for a day or two. Can you imagine if you did the same thing on a man’s testicles? I bet he wouldn’t be able to walk properly for a couple of days!

Warning: Male Electric Shavers Are For Your Face Only

Here’s a lame idea I got from my research – Using an electric beard shaver on your pubic hair. I don’t understand why people would risk getting skin irritations on their private parts like that. Anyway, if you plan to use one, please remember to use a different shaving foil for your pubic region for hygiene purposes.

How Razor Blades Bite You Down There

Women have the availability of leg shavers for shaving their pubes. Although this isn’t the best tool to use, at least they have leg shavers while men don’t. I do not recommend using any traditional razor blade on the sensitive pubic region because it may cause pubic rashes, pubic pimples and ingrown pubic hair. Don’t believe me? Try shaving your balls with a razor blade and I guarantee you’ll feel a terrible burning sensation all over your testicles due to the razor burns.

Pubic hair removal techniques for women just won’t work as well for men simply because our private parts are different. However, there are specialized pubic hair shavers that work great for both sexes. A pubic hair shaver that I personally use and recommend is the “Body Bare” shaver. All the problems associated with removing your pubic hair will be a thing of the past with this tool. If you’re still thinking about being a cheapskate by using normal shavers on your family jewels, I urge you to stop. It’s just not worth it.

Conceiving Baby Boy With Boy Diet

Conceive baby boy by changing your diet before you conceive, and maintaining a certain kind of diet during your pregnancy!

Sounds like one of those outlandish old wives’ tales?

Not quite!

Scientists now seem to agree that there is a possible link between what you eat and which gender you’ll conceive.

Pregnant women on high calorie diet are more likely to have a baby boy!
Also, eating food rich in nutrients such as potassium and calcium, and vitamins C, D and B12 – seems to upper your chance of conceiving a baby boy!

Where those conclusions came from? Actually, it’s from a new research done at the universities of Exeter and Oxford. The scientists examined the diets of a large number of first-time mothers and found that those who ate a higher number of calories were more likely to conceive with a boy!

Among women with the highest calorie intake before pregnancy – 56 percent had boys.

Women who had boys also ate an additional 300 mg of potassium daily!

Don’t you have an urge now to go and eat a banana?:)

It has been speculated for 30 years in the scientistic world that the diet of a mother could predict the gender of a baby. There has been enough evidence that diet in mammals can affect the sex of their offspring. Namely, a lot of mammals when well fed produce more boys, while in starvation situation there are more girls than boys being born.

Seems like there are more nutrients needed to conceive a boy rather than a girl… In any case: now you have one more reason not to skip breakfast!:) Especially when you hear this next piece of statistics:

Eat at least one bowl of breakfast cereal daily and you will have a 87 percent more chance that you’ll conceive a baby boy!

So, treat yourself with an additional serving of steak with potatoes and have a piece of cake:)

But… don’t overdo it! Never forget that proper nutrition is essentially important for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.
Whatever gender that baby will be!

Can I Get Pregnant Without Having Sex?

“I have had a boyfriend for over two years. He wants to have sex without a condom and says he will pull out before he ejaculates. The other day my boyfriend and I were fooling around a lot but we did not go all the way. He ejaculated near my vagina but that was it. Is it possible to get pregnant without having sex?”

Well the first thing any doctor will say is ­ANYTHING is possible. Basically if any semen was near your vagina, it is possible for you to get pregnant. It only takes a very small amount of semen to enter your vagina, and make it to your uterus, for you to get pregnant.

If you are having sex or even almost having sex, you can get pregnant. Any time there is ejaculation and semen around; it is possible that you could get pregnant. Using protection even during foreplay can help reduce your risk of becoming pregnant.

Many women believe that if they are not having intercourse with vaginal penetration, then they do not need to take precautions. This is just not true.

You are susceptible to pregnancy as well as sexually transmitted diseases if you are being this intimate with your partner.

There are many women who say they did not have full intercourse and now they are pregnant; as well as women who contract sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea, Chlamydia, vaginal warts, HIV and AIDS. If you are going to be sexually intimate with your partner in any way, you are exposing yourself to these possibilities.

For years, it has been argued about whether the penis actually has to be in the vagina during ejaculation in order for the woman to get pregnant. It is not the case that the penis has actually been in the vagina. This goes for the often-tried birth control method of “pulling out” as well. Men release a pre- ejaculation fluid that contains sperm. This pre-ejaculation does not offer the man the same sensations as regular ejaculation, so the man does not pull his penis out during the pre-ejaculation. This is how many women get pregnant even though their partner’s penis was not in their vagina during the ejaculation.

If you think you may be pregnant you should take a home pregnancy test as soon as you have missed your period. Or if you want to know the results earlier, you can visit your doctor or a local family planning clinic.

If you find out later that you are pregnant with an unplanned pregnancy, it can be very scary. Today there are many options available if you have an unplanned pregnancy.You can visit Lifetime Adoption for more information on adoption, and to chat live. In today’s adoption world, you can choose how involved you want to be with the adoptive family. Open adoption offers women the option of finding a forever family for their baby, while maintaining contact through letters and pictures.
