Pregnancy Announcement Ideas Youll Love

Are you nearing the time when you’d like to tell friends and family you’ve got a baby on the way? Looking for ideas for how to announce your first pregnancy or to let people know that your existing child or children are about to gain a sibling? Look no further! Today we’re bringing you some of the latest pregnancy announcement trends, sharing some heart-warming and funny pregnancy announcement photos from our lovely Bump, Baby & You community and talking props you could use to spare your special news.

Cute, Sentimental or Cheeky? Which Direction Will You Take?

We let our dog make the announcement for us with a simple snap of her curled round our first scan photo. If Ruby, our border terrier-jack Russell cross knew then how much of an impact the new arrival would have on her life, I’m not so sure she would have been such a willing participant in our ‘cute’ pet themed pregnancy announcement.

Involving pets in baby announcements is a trend that’s very much here to stay and we’ve got some fantastic examples in our baby announcement slideshow, made up of gorgeous photos from the Bump community.

While my boyfriend and I opted for a low-key cute announcement, I loved the bun in the oven themed video our friends made when they were expecting – this was a particularly apt pregnancy announcement as Daddy is a baker! If you’d like to introduce a little humour, could you play on either of your professions as part of the announcement?

At Bump, we love seeing everyone’s pregnancy announcements in group – it’s particularly lovely to see a pregnancy announcement when someone has been TTC for some time or has a little rainbow on the way. And the framing of these announcements can be incredibly heart-warming and personal.

Real-Life Pregnancy Announcement Photos

In preparation for this post, we asked our Mums and Dads to share with us how they announced that they had a little bundle or bundles on the way. We were absolutely blown away by just how creative they all were. There’s some fantastically arty, funny and super cute examples among the images. However, as a dog Mum, my favourite has to be the doggy reading about becoming a big brother. Soooo cute!
