June 2015 Moms

Share your pregnancy announcement!

I didn't see a place for us to share our announcements.  I thought it might be helpful to share in one place.  I know I was searching for days trying to find some ideas.  

We did a FB announcement the other day and created this...with a line before it that said, " Santa isn't the only one coming to town..."  The hot wheels car was supposed to be a *hint*, but some people missed it!  

Can't wait to see yours and hopefully this will be helpful for others looking for ideas!

  • Okay I haven't perfected mine yet, but here is my idea and I would LOVE feedback on whether or not this seems clear (on Facebook) I took a series of photos of my DS Jack in front of the Christmas tree that's in GONNA put together on a grid. In one he's holding a piece of paper and pencil, pretending to write. The next pic is a close up of his paper, which has his Christmas list on it. It says: "Jack's Christmas List 1. A ball 2. Drums 3. Books 4. A brother or sister 5. A baby cousin Thank you, Santa! Love, Jack" And then the next photo is of him holding our ultrasound photo. The caption would be: "Jack was so good this year, he's getting everything on his wish list! Baby (our last name) - June 2015 Baby (my sister's last name) - August 2015" (Obviously my sister is expecting as well and we are telling on the same day) Is that confusing about the cousins? I mean... I'll tag her in the post (she knows about it) and she will have just announced as well, and most everyone I am friends with on Fb knows her too. So I think you'd have to be reeeeeally special not to get it. BUT I want to run it by you ladies. (I know you'll be honest) ;)
    Do something on the list to make brother/sister stand out?  Like make them in blue and pink writing?  The cousin thing almost threw me off, but I didn't know about your sister until later in the post.  I think it will work on FB if ya'll have mostly the same friends on there (or know) and you let her post for a few hours before yours to let people catch on to her post.  Does Jack have any other cousins?  Maybe just say "A cousin".  Just a few thoughts to ponder...

    That's awesome that ya'll are so close!

  • @b4ebeth‌ thank you for the input!!! I appreciate it! :) this is the first cousin so maybe just saying "a cousin" is better. And maybe I'll add another comment to the caption about my sister, just for clarity's sake. Thanks! :)
  • I just put my ultrasound as my cover photo on Facebook and let everyone figure it out. Lol of course my close family and friends had already known though.
  • These are all so adorable! I love seeing all these. We're having our pictures done in Monday, so I'll share once I have them!

    Well that's just adorable 

    Hahaha! Took me a moment to get the joke at the end!! Excellent!!!
  • And this is the one my mom posted. This is my son, Hunter. We announced on his birthday, and he had wished in June at Magic Kingdom during the fireworks show for a baby brother or sister. He is thrilled.
  • Is everyone know's you are pregnant just by telling them-- should I still do some sort of announcement card?
  • These are so cute and creative.  Fun thread!

  • I'm turning 30 this month, so I'm just going to say flat out on FB, "I'm 30 and pregnant". I'll try to think of something cute but I doubt it. Our families already know.
