Whether it is a couple's first pregnancy or their fifth, it can be really fun to decide how to announce the news to friends and family. Since social media seems to be the main way to do it, people have gotten really creative with crafting their pregnancy announcement photos. Some couples do a themed photoshoot for the season, some incorporate humor, and some have a future big sibling star in the announcement. One of the recent trends that people seem to be following in the world of pregnancy is using a letter board in the announcement. Letter boards are nice because the mom or couple can put whatever they want on it and be as straightforward or as funny as they want to be.
Some parents do a really great job of tying the letter board into the photo. For example one couple wrote they were "in for a ride" and set up the photo at a carnival. Sometimes the signs are really funny! One mama wrote out a remix of "Baby Got Back" lyrics, except referring to her baby bump of course. Some letter board baby announcements are really simple and just have the new baby's name or sex with a due date. Styling the board in the photo can also be important. People incorporate baby shoes, onesies, plants, pets, and other cute things to make the announcement their own. A lot of letter board announcements done with kids have extremely clever and funny phrases on them. It is all about doing something that makes sense for the family. Here are 20 letter board pregnancy announcements that moms-to-be will totally want to steal!
