One photo could show the front of the shirt that says ‘I’ve got a secret’, then the next photo could be the reveal of the back that says ‘I’m going to be a big sister/brother’! If you're making your pregnancy announcement around Halloween, carving a baby into a pumpkin would be a perfectly seasonal way of announcing the news. At Halloween, you could make an announcement about 'another pumpkin joining the patch' or at Easter you could make a baby Easter bunny themed announcement.

Of course, you can include any children you already have to show your family is growing by another little person.Letter boards are a popular choice for pregnancy announcement photos and they’ll also come in handy later for milestones, birthday and even first day of school photos. By then you've completed the first trimester and hopefully gotten the all clear from your first scan. If you already have children, involving them in a pregnancy announcement makes it really special and fun.

There are lots of cute concepts and slogans you can use to involve older siblings in pregnancy announcements, for example 'only child expiring on due date' or 'graduating to big brother,' or 'I've been promoted to big sister'. These are designed to look like a regular scratch card so your friends and family won’t suspect a thing. Whether the scratch card requires you to match three to see the news or scratch away to reveal a message, this idea adds a hint of mystery and surprise to the pregnancy announcement. We love the idea of using them between a pair of yours and your partner’s shoes to show a new addition to the family is on their way, or they look great photographed on your growing bump.

If you're thinking of announcing the pregnancy at Christmas or on a birthday, some people even wrap up the positive pregnancy test to give to their partner!
