As soon as you get that pretty pink + sign on your test, a million thoughts are going to race through your mind. One of the most thrilling thoughts is, “how am I going to share this with my friends and family?!”

Especially in the age of social media, we see all kinds of ways that people are cooking up to announce to the world that they are expecting. Some are super simple, and some are totally elaborate.

For my family, we announced with personalized mugs and a tiny diaper shirt. Our parents had “Baby Brewing – Nov 2018” written on theirs, and my sister’s had “congrats you are going to be babysitters- I mean auntie and uncle!” on theirs.

Not only is it fun planning, but it is so much fun to see the look of excitement on the faces of your loved ones! Here are some of the best pregnancy announcements!
