Trying to find the perfect way to announce you are pregnant is a lot of pressure… It is such huge and amazing news, you feel like you have to announce it in a huge and amazing way!
It was about 2 years ago when I did my big announcement. My parents were told by my husband (Mike) and I coming over to give them a gift for “babysitting our dogs.” What they really got were two pairs of baby socks that read, “I love Grandpa” and “I love Grandma.” It took about 2 seconds for my mom to figure out what was going on, and my dad about 4… There were immediate tears, screams, and hugging all around.
Some of my closest friends were told at my birthday dinner. It was hard for me for two reasons: 1) Mike didn’t want to tell them until dessert, and 2) He wanted to be in charge of the “announcement!” There ended up being a cake brought out with “Happy Birthday Mommy-to-Be!” written on it. Our friends were all thrilled by the news, but I think they might have had an idea…”mommy-to-be” hadn’t ordered any wine that night…
Now that my parents, brother, and friends had all been told, I was ready to declare the news to the rest of the world! I used the Picnik website to create the image below (the picture was actually taken on 4th of July!), and it was super easy to do! They walk you through the whole process, and although there are templates you can pay for, the one I used was free of charge.
I guess the moral of this story is, there are a million ways you can announce your most electrifying news to the world. Just have fun with it!!!
How should I tell the world about my future baby 2??
