Got it to post from a computer instead of my tablet! Just announced on Monday to the world. Everyone has been waiting years for my DH & I to have a baby, we have been together for 14.5 years.
Do you guys think ultrasound pics on Facebooks are a yea or nay? It's not gross or anything but I just don't know if everyone wants to see what's inside my uterus....
@abbalish I know it's not peoples favorite thing to see, but that's probably how I'll do it. I'm just not creative enough for one of these cutesy posts, and I don't want to be super boring and just write it out...I feel like people will just scroll on by and not even realize it's an announcement lol. I figure at least an u/s pic will grab people's attention. DH and I have been together a really long time and I know a lot of our old friends we don't see much anymore will be really excited for us...so I just don't want them to miss it!
We'll be announcing on social media sometime in the next few days, depending on when we can get a few more extended family members on the phone. But I was so excited to put our announcement photo together tonight, I wanted to share here!
We didn't get this far with our first pregnancy so I was thrilled to be able to post something online. Close family knew beforehand, and a few ladies who had had MCs that I was confiding in.
This is half of ours. The other half I can't blur out our full names right now...suffice it to say, the top half is all fiance (dinosaurs and gaming dice) and the bottom half is a "script" title page, with "Baby Boy V---- (working title)" on it. For me, as a theatre artist.
Here is ours. I was 14 weeks on Friday and finally tracked down the rest of our out of town family to tell via Skype and on the phone before we posted this. Then we put it on Facebook Friday night and it keeps bringing a smile to our face with all the texts and Facebook posts.

I didn't want to do this but DH wanted to post the picture on his facebook. He NEVER posts on facebook so I figured it was okay. I did feel weird about everyone seeing the inside of my uterus...and because we only have one u/s picture so far I felt like it was something special for us that would somehow be "less special" if he posted it. But he was finally showing some real excitement over everything so I got over my hormones.
Just posted this yesterday. I had big plans to get super creative and include our dogs and new house in our announcement, and then I got lazy and didn't feel like finagling everyone. DS is super excited as you can tell
