Most Creative Pregnancy Announcements

You have finally gotten your big fat Positive, have seen your precious baby, and are ready to celebrate with your loved ones. How should you announce it? I have been pregnant 3 times, and each time I announced the pregnancy differently. I regretted my first pregnancy announcement because I just called them and told them the news. It wasn’t that exciting, to be honest. Trust me you will regret it if you do what I did. So let’s get to it! Below are the 20 most creative pregnancy announcements.

Before announcing your pregnancy, you must ask yourself the following questions:

  • When do you want to announce it?

It is very exciting to announce your pregnancy, but try to think about when you want to do it. Miscarriage rates decrease after 12 weeks. Would you like to wait until then to announce your pregnancy, or would you like to do it beforehand and don’t mind if others know if you have a miscarriage? Always be prepared for the best and worst scenarios before making decisions. 

  • Do you only want certain people to know?

Sometimes people only want certain members of their loved ones to know. If that is the case, avoid announcing it on social media. Also, you may decide to tell some before others. I told my husband the day after I found out, and my loved ones at 8 weeks of pregnancy. 

  • Is it your first pregnancy? 

I have been pregnant 3 times, and all three times I did something different. I used my first child to announce my second pregnancy; however, my second pregnancy, unfortunately, ended in a miscarriage.  

  • Who are you announcing your pregnancy to?

Are you planning a surprise for your whole family, are you planning to surprise your partner or both?
