Announcement photos

Share your announcement photos here! 
There has been a few different threads for announcements, I thought having one for all of them would be great! 

*we don't have any yet, too indecisive of how and when we want to share the news.

Here is mine!!  It makes me miss how little my babies were!! 


(it has May because I'll be induced by the 25th if I don't go before then, but my due date is technically June 1st )

Here's mine. We went Facebook public over the weekend after a great NT scan last Friday.

We used this picture with a little rhyme on it about it being number 3 that rhymed with our last name.

We haven't posted anything online yet but we are using this photo on our Christmas cards to announce to friends/family that don't know yet. Then, eventually we will also use this photo (with a combination of others) to announce via facebook, etc.

We are waiting until after our Christmas cards are all out to officially announce but this is the only picture that actually worked from our shoot. Any ideas on how to cover up the panties?

Put a little digital sticker in the bottom right corner that says "June 2017."  That should cover enough.

@Xath great idea!! Thank you!!

MrsCaliRN

All of you using you LOs to announce is giving me so many ideas! All so cute, personal and special. I'm getting all emotional just scrolling through!

@meilay Love the Oaklandish shirt! I'm in the Bay, too

I shared this in another thread. We aren't announcing on social media and our family already knows. But I had the opportunity to surprise my husband with the sex of the baby during our family photos. He didn't know I received my NIPT results so soon and during this shot I handed him a pink bow. The photographer was in on it. 

Edit: spelling

This is what we used for our FB announcement, I only just announced last night as we had a really good NT scan yesterday and our NIPT results were good. 
Also, finally in the "safe zone" as I'm 12 weeks 3 days

@Momofboys NIPT is non-invasive prenatal testing. It's a blood screening for the probability of baby having a chromosomal abnormality and the baby's sex.

I posted this on the Announcing on Christmas thread... this is our Christmas card that we will send out if everything looks good at our next US on the 15th, and then will post it on Facebook on maybe Christmas eve.

We sent out Christmas cards to friends and family this week. I am still keeping it off social media for now. The shoes in the middle were the ones my DH wore home from the hospital when he was born.

DH is a huge wrestling fan and this was his lone baby related request, so I obliged. The tiny belt is off his Daniel Bryan action figure that was part of his wrestling ring groom's cake.

---Do you know if this can be done @ 13 weeks pregnant? Sorry to bother

merrylea

@Momofboys Generally its done between 10-14 weeks.  Usually it's only covered if you're high risk for genetic abnormalities or you're over 35.  Paying for it out of pocket can be a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.  I think the sticker price for mine was over $2000.

Top one is how we announced to our parents, and the bottom one was our social media announcement! We announced at Thanksgiving!

--Oh my!! Maybe that is not the one my doctor offered me. She quoted me a price of $130. This is the first time it has been offered to me.

@megsyyx holy Sh*T! I am obsessed with your dogs! Are they American Bulldogs? Mix? I want to kiss those chops.

Here is ours. we announced a week ago. 

wifeinraleigh28

Y'all are giving me so many wonderful ideas! Unfortunately DH is set on doing a Star Wars themed announcement, and I'm going to let him haha. I'll post it here once we get it done. I'm 14 weeks now and I'm starting to feel ready to come out on social media, but I'm torn because my next ultrasound isn't until January 5th (anatomy scan)! My last scan was when I was only 11 weeks, so that's a big gap. We did listen to the heartbeat last week though!

FTM here and I don't know what to do!?

Xath

@wifeinraleigh28 There are loads of adorable Star Wars knit baby caps on Etsy.  DS1 has a yoda one and DS2 has R2D2.
