After waking up at 3am and taking a pregnancy test, Briony sat waiting for her beau to wake up and made him a special breakfast.
She served him up a boiled egg and toast, placed on a wooden board with the words 'Daddy you are a good egg. All my love Bumble Bee xx' carved into it.
Sat on the table above it was her positive pregnancy test.
Sharing a picture of the set up on Instagram, she wrote: "Sat waiting for my next midwife appointment and reminiscing over when our incredible journey started (the morning I woke at 3am and had to wait til breakfast time to tell Sam)"

Sam and Briony have revealed that they're expecting a little boy.
The couple were trying for a baby for just over a month before Briony fell pregnant with their son, who is due to arrive in September.
Sam told OK! magazine: "We're having a boy! It was a massive surprise when we found out, as there are loads of girls in our families, so we were adamant we were having a girl."
Sam's Corrie character recently welcomed quadruplets with his on-screen girlfriend Gemma Winter, and he joked that he was glad life wasn't imitating art.
As he shared a picture of his and Briony's baby scan, he joked: "I'm glad it's not quads. One's perfect and just enough for now!"
On finding out the gender, Briony said: "Sam couldn't come with me because of the current rules, so I got the consultant to write the sex on a piece of paper and put it in an envelope and we both then sat in the car and opened it together. We were over the moon."
