Not sure why I couldn't add a comment to the previous post, but it says "Looking for a bigger bench for April 2017". I'm likely to go early due to my previous history and repeat c-section, but I'm sticking with this BMB.
I am due May 21st. So far we have only told our parents and siblings and my coworkers we are expecting. We plan to tell everyone else in person at Thanksgiving and will use these photo for our Facebook announcement.
We wanted to be subtle in our announcement, but I really like the B&W one and DH like the full color one. We aren't very creative and we really stink at picture taking! We haven't decided when we will announce on FB yet. Fun fact: we had our friend take this picture and it's how she found out! She took a few without the book, then we grabbed the book half way through photos.
I just felt comfortable enough to actually post today on Facebook due to a previous miscarriage and some bleeding with this pregnancy even though I am 17w5d. Our immediate family has known for a while. I have been wearing baggy clothes to hide it from my students, but I going all out tomorrow with maternity clothes so I can't wait to see their reactions. I'm not tech savvy so I can't display what I posted on Facebook, but it was a picture of my daughter "reading" I'm a big sister. It has taken a while for people to catch on.
We're putting this on the back of our Christmas card with the caption "Coming May 2017." I'm excited for the cards to go out because almost none of our friends know we're pregnant so this will be a big reveal.
We made our official FB post on Thanksgiving (16w 4d). We had told close friends and family at around 10 weeks. They were almost as excited as we were to be "out."
We announced in mid-November. ended up using the announcement for the great grandparents as our FB/public announcement. just some simple pumpkins but my mother goes crazy for decorating outside so I took advantage of it. hoping to do family pictures onetime this month and include stereotypical announcement style pics.
Getting closer to spilling the beans farther than close friends and family. This went on Instagram this morning (really small group following our family so seems less final than posting on FB).
We shared the video of us opening the box, and now in hindsight I think this was the only actual picture we may have gotten. I plan to check our families phones when we see them again at Christmas.
Sorry its huge, I have no idea how to resize on here.
I went back and forth over whether to post on facebook, but we took a picture that I really liked when we were in Philly over the weekend, so I posted it today and said "Our family is growing. 5.29.17 "
I love this picture, but in hindsight it's pretty funny for a pregnancy announcement because it's a Rodin piece called the Gates of Hell. Oops!
