Birth Announcements

LO is 7w today and I feel like by the time I get pictures selected and have announcements made up, it will be too late to send them.

If you did birth announcements, when did you send them out?

    No, I don't work for them.


    Funny how we feel the need to specify that now, LOL. I did the same thing yesterday in HDBD when referring posters to Etsy because they liked my DH's shirt!

  • Like PP said Tiny Prints is great. We got ours within a week from them for this LO....

    We sent them out at one month for this LO. For DS1 it was at Christmas time, so he was at least 2 months. We used Walgreens for his and got them same day.

    We sent them at 4 weeks. We ordered from TinyPrints and it was super fast.

  • I think the standard is within 3 months. We're sending ours this week, also made by Tiny Prints. So cute!
     


  • I sent Abbie's at 7.5 weeks. Figured if they are there before 3ish months its fine... We ordered from shutterfly and they were at our house within 3 business days and then out the next day.
  • We sent them out around 3 weeks. I don't think I'd bother at this point unless you just really want to do them.

  • I sent them at 5 weeks because I wanted to include the baptism information as well. I also went through tinyprints.com for both of those.

    Dang expensive but they turned out adorable and they were quick!

    This.
  • Ah. Thank you for this. I was feeling like a slacker with my 7 week old as well.  I wasn't going to bother but think I will now.

    I'd put a Movember mustache fail, but then
    you'd all have to look at it until February.

    I sent mine out at around 4 or 5 weeks and I thought that was late! I feel better now. I did Shutterfly and they were cute but I didn't like that they're basically just a photo. I wish I had done Tiny Prints

    Ours came with our newborn package and I sent them out when M was around 4 weeks old.
