How soon do (should) you get them out?

Re: Birth announcements?

  • I didn't get ours out until the beginning of December and Megan was born on October 30th. I also combined ours with Christmas cards though, so I used that as an excuse for taking over a month and a half!

  • Whenever you get round to it! Don't put pressure on yourself to get them out, people will love them if they go out next month or next year!!!!!

  • I made my birth announcements when I was around 7 months pg because I knew I wouldn't have any time to do it once ds arrived. And I was right! I ordered the pics for the cards and finally got them mailed when he was around 10 or 12 wks old.

    You're caring for a new baby people won't be upset if you don't get announcements out right away!
