Tying a pregnancy announcement to a holiday can be a smart way to incorporate a theme and do something eye-catching. That's why if baby is due in October or that's the time of year when mom and dad are ready to start sharing the news, a Halloween announcement has TONS of potential.
Not to mention that, for those who are obsessed with Halloween, being pregnant during this time of year couldn't be more perfect. For the Halloween lovers who start planning their costume in July, a fall pregnancy announcement is the perfect opportunity to let loved ones know that there's no tricks, only a treat this year. They can pull out their cobwebs, jack-o'-lanterns, and witches brew as fun props for a photo that will surely make friends and family do a double take.
Even if a newly expecting couple is not the kind to have a Halloween countdown on their phones, there is still plenty of inspiration to take from the festive holiday. From pumpkins, hilarious costumes to reveal that there's a bun in the oven, to incorporating autumnal colors into the perfect family photo, if going full-on Halloween seems like too much, there are definitely ways to subtly add those spooky touches.
So why be boring with the announcement of baby ghoul or goblin? Make a statement with a Halloween pregnancy announcement and make this October 31 extra special. Need help coming up with ideas that are both scary and sweet? Take a look at these amazing Halloween pregnancy announcements that we've found by real parents who wanted to be a little extra with their growing pumpkin. We know that they'll definitely get everyone in the holiday spirit!
