Announce your pregnancy in style.
Hey everyone!
If you or someone close to you is getting ready to share some big news, you’re in the right place.
Announcing a pregnancy is a huge deal, and finding a fun, memorable way to do it can make the moment even more special.
Let’s dive into some playful and creative ideas for telling your friends and family that a new little one is on the way!

1. Pet Involvement
Got a furry friend at home? Let them do the talking!
Dress your dog or cat in a little shirt that says, “Big Brother” or “Big Sister.”
We have Guinea Pigs but they wouldn’t stand for this. Lol
Snap a photo of your pet looking proud (or hilariously confused) and share it with everyone.
Trust me, people will go wild over it.
2. Funny T-Shirts
Matching family T-shirts can make a great announcement photo.
You could go for something like, “Player 1” and “Player 2” on the parents and a “Player 3 Loading” shirt for the soon-to-be baby.
It’s a cute and simple way to share the news, especially if you’re into video games or anything techy.
3. Baking Surprise
If you love to bake, this one’s for you.
Make a batch of cookies or cupcakes and decorate them with phrases like “We’re having a baby!” or “Baby on the way.”
Invite friends and family over and watch their faces light up as they take a bite.
4. Seasonal Fun
Make your announcement match the season!
If it’s around Halloween, carve a pumpkin that says, “Baby arriving (month/year).” Or, if it’s winter, take a photo with tiny baby mittens hanging between your big mittens on a clothesline.
Adding a touch of the season makes your announcement feel timely and creative.
5. Movie Poster Reveal
Create a movie-poster-style announcement starring you and your partner as the leads with the tagline, “Coming soon: Baby (Last Name).” Add some dramatic text like, “A new adventure begins…”
This idea is perfect for movie buffs or anyone who wants to make a big statement.
6. Photo with an Older Sibling
If you already have a kid, let them join in on the fun!
Give them a sign to hold that says, “Promoted to Big Brother/Sister” or “Oops, they did it again!”
Their excited or puzzled face will make the announcement even more priceless.
7. Balloons Everywhere
Fill a room or a box with balloons that spell out “BABY,” or add one special balloon in a bunch that says, “It’s a boy!” or “It’s a girl!”
Capture everyone’s reaction when they see it—pure magic.
8. 1,2,3
Surprise! I’m pregnant with my third!!
This is how we announced our third pregnancy on social media recently.
Post a picture of each child holding a card with their number in order of when they were born.
Have the parents or mum hold number 3 below their bump to indicate a new baby on the way.
Bee's Final Thoughts
The more creative and true to your personality, the better.
So there you have it!
Whether you go big with a surprise party or keep it simple with a fun post, the most important thing is to share your joy in a way that feels right for you.
Pregnancy is such an exciting time, and telling everyone should be just as special as the journey ahead.
Good luck, and happy announcing!
