No. That's plain weird.

How did you get it to read +? False Negatives due to timing is possible but for a false + ya need the pregnancy hormone to be present.

No, but back in the day I wore colored contacts. I had blue and green. So for april fools I did one eye in blue with blue eye shadow, one eye in green with green shadow and no one noticed.

Your husband has had a vasectomy and you wanted him to think you were pregnant? Yeah, that is weird. And, it never occurred to you that he would think it was the teenage daughter? I hope you caught him before he confronted her. That is just twisted.

that was some bold joke! maybe if you'd written "april fools" in HUGE letters on the backside?

I've never been imaginative enough to pull off a good April Fools day joke :-(

It may sound weird to us....but remember, we do not know the family dynamic.

Having said that, I am no good at jokes.

I can just imagine the DH killing spouse in a fit of rage over perceived infidelity. Now that’d be a joke gone awry, ha.

not a prank I’d pull.

Occasionally you can get pregnant by someone who's had a vasectomy, just like you can get pregnant if you've had your tubes tied.

Curious......How long did it take to convince him it was a joke?

I HATE pranks. They're mean. So I don't pull any.

I'm not a big fan of practical jokes because so often the recipient gets mad, hurt feelings, embarrassed, etc. One has to really know their audience when planning a practical joke.

I did pull one, one year on April 1, that was pretty successful. I glued several quarters to the sidewalk in front of my office at work. Every person who was on their way to the office stopped and tried to pick them up. Once they realized they were glued down, they'd glance around to see if anyone was looking and then scurry off. It was pretty funny and no one seemed to mind.

I’m so sorry I posted this.

Yes, maybe see if you can get the moderators to remove it. This post also backfired.

I think people are being a little harsh! I've had jokes backfire too, though I can't think of a specific one.

Louise, I was feeling for you. Don’t be sorry you posted it. Just remember: mean people s*uck.

Gosh, I posted once a long time ago about no one else in the house putting a new roll of toilet paper on the holder. I was viscously attacked. Yes, back then, there were a lot of very mean people. I have only pulled one big April Fool, I got a for sale sight from our realtor and put it in front of the house, the boys got home from school and were furious. Told them we were moving to Seattle. My neighbors called and said I had to come clean, their kids were hysterical!

That’s a good one Terilyn.

louiseab, how long until you defused his aggravation? Funny how what you expected him to think and what he thought went in another direction. I guess that you both learned something about the other that day!

Louise, no reason to feel bad to post it! It would have been funnier though with both of you in your mid to end 40’s and the kids finally out of the house. And no vasectomy involved. Not that I would do that next April. My husband might have a heart attack.

louiseab, I'm glad this thread did a turn around. Hope you are feeling a bit better about it.

Louise, I think you probably have a great and funny sense of humor. You could probably pull off this joke because you and your husband **get each other** you understand each others humor. I was never good at thinking up good jokes to pull and alway fell back on the old ones. I once thumb tacked my shoes to the ceiling layed on the floor holding my head and moaning. My husband laughed but it was more in disgust which I found funnier than what I did. Lol. I'm so unimaginitive. Lol.
