When Should You Announce A Pregnancy?
Congratulations, you're pregnant!
Now it's time to make the first decisions of your pregnancy: when and who to tell?
When to announce your pregnancy depends on who you are going to tell. Partners are usually the first to know, followed by close family and friends. Most of us wait until at least the end of the first trimester before telling anyone else.
The reason for this is that the risk of experiencing a miscarriage decreases as your pregnancy progresses. Once a pregnancy is in its thirteenth week, the risk of miscarriage is significantly smaller, so women feel more comfortable sharing their news.
How to Announce Pregnancy
When you're planning your pregnancy announcement, there are some things to consider.
- Who are you telling? A surprise pregnancy announcement to your partner is likely to be different than an announcement involving anyone else.
- When are you going to make your announcement? Are you planning to wait until as late as possible to tell the world about your pregnancy? In that case, your pregnancy announcement might involve sharing your bump. Many women opt to wait until their second trimester begins to make the announcement since the risk of miscarriage drops (1).
- Do you want to control who knows about your pregnancy? If you do, then don't post an exciting or creative pregnancy announcement on social media.
- How elaborate is your pregnancy announcement idea? Are you thinking of a simple, clever photo to post? Or will your idea require ordering special props and hiring a photographer or videographer?
- Does your pregnancy announcement reflect your personality? You won't want a cute and fluffy pregnancy announcement if you are a serious or stodgy person.
Need some inspiration? Here are some picks for the best pregnancy announcement ideas.
Funny Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
1. Movie Poster Fun
You can buy templates for pregnancy announcement movie photos. Take your own photograph, add a tagline, and round it off with your due date.
2. Chalk It Up
This idea packs a big punch to the funny bone while being simple to set up. All you need is your positive pregnancy test, your partner, and a floor!
4. Say It With An Ear Worm
Take "Baby shark, do do do do" and turn it into "Baby (your name), due due due due" and add your due date. Your pregnancy announcement will stay with people for days.
5. A Streaming Story
This one may not be for everybody, but if your family and friends share your sense of humor, a pregnancy announcement that's verging on the naughty might hit the mark.
6. Traditional Meets Modern
Take the old-fashioned "bun in the oven" saying and use it to tell everyone about your impending parenthood. This has the added bonus of being incredibly simple to do.
7. A Laugh WIth A Twist
Find the humor in the downsides of pregnancy. Spending a lot of time throwing up? Use the situation to announce your pregnancy, especially if you can turn the sickness element on its head.
8. We're All Winners
The recipients of these scratch cards will have the excitement of winning a possible prize. Then they'll have the joy of discovering the prize is your pregnancy.
9. Onesie Humor
There are multiple funny pregnancy announcement onesies available. I chose this one because it is a little more creative than just holding the onesie, but it is easy to replicate.
Cute Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
10. Tiny Shoes
There are many variations on the "cute, tiny shoes photo" pregnancy announcement. This one stands out because of the use of chalk and the inclusion of the baby's name.
11. Fruity News
You can't get much cuter than a tiny piece of fruit. Bonus points for this pregnancy announcement because it has an air of mystery. It doesn't scream "I'm having a baby!" at first glance.
12. A Team Effort
If you are a sports fan who is looking for a way to announce your pregnancy, then adding a new member to your team via a onesie could be great for you.
13. Add It Up
If you are pregnant with multiples, this simple math equation stands as a pregnancy announcement on its own, or as a "follow-up" announcement when you discover you are having multiple babies.
14. Sock It To Me
This pregnancy announcement gives you the ideal excuse to buy tiny clothes — you can use any baby clothing item you like.
15. The Family Business
If you or your partner have a career about which you feel passionate, use it in your pregnancy announcement. Bonus points if you can also work in a pun.
16. Bake The News
You don't have to be a baker to tell the world about your baby through the medium of baked goods. Make your own or order some from a local baker and then add a copy of your ultrasound to drive the point home.

Another twist on the tiny shoe pregnancy announcement. This one uses the month and year of birth of both parents and the baby's expected arrival month.

Is the bun in the oven a little too simple? How about a photo of your recipe for a new family member? Add an ultrasound photo and your flour hand-printed bump, and you have a creative twist on a well-known phrase.
31. Graphic Novel Edition One
Start your own graphic novel series featuring your unborn child and make the first edition your pregnancy announcement. Continue the fun by creating covers to share news such as a gender reveal.

If a chalkboard isn't your style, how about a letter board and an ultrasound picture to spring your surprise on your loved one?
