When should you announce your pregnancy on social media?
As a rule of thumb, I always wait until we’ve passed the 12-week mark to share anything on social media.
But honestly, it’s up to you.
Some moms want extra support from their online friends if they experience a miscarriage and others don’t.
Just remember to tell your most important loved ones in person so they don’t end up finding out on Facebook!
And don’t forget to keep the announcement true to you and your style.
So whether you’re looking for simple ways to announce your pregnancy to your husband or creative pregnancy announcement ideas for Facebook, below are 70+ modern baby announcement ideas that will help you share your happy news with all of your loved ones.

Letter boards weren’t super popular when I had my first two babies, but they sure are trendy now!

Rainbow/Infertility/Adoption Announcement Ideas
A rainbow baby signifies something beautiful after something dark and scary: miscarriage.
We chose to use a rainbow balloon to share the news of our special fourth baby.

Infertility can also be dark and scary, so I love how this mama chose to share her struggle and joy in her pregnancy announcement.

And we can’t forget about all of those sweet babies who are adopted! I love how this mama shared their exciting news!

Pop Culture Announcement Ideas
Let’s not forget about using pop culture to make your pregnancy announcement. This is where you can get really unique and creative!
