Pregnancy announcements can be funny, simple, or over-the-top; but when you include your furry friend, they are always extra cute. For many new parents, the family dog truly feels like the firstborn child, so incorporating Fido in the sharing of pregnancy news is essential.
These days, there are so many unique and fun ways to incorporate your dog in your pregnancy announcement: Just make sure to snap a ton of pictures, because you will want the outtakes to laugh at later (trust us!).
Sometimes, less is more. As is the case with a sonogram picture and Big Brother Dog outfitted in a bandanna or propped up against a sign sharing the news.
Speaking of bandannas, they can do all the talking in a family photo of the parents-to-be and their dog-child. How cute is a pregnancy announcement photo like this?
A cute chalkboard sign is easy to customise with your fun baby news message. If you are not planning to hire a photographer, simply set up the self-timer on your phone for a shot like this.
Felt letter boards are easy to find from Amazon or Etsy. Pick a colourful one or go with black-and-white, and add your humorous baby announcement with the dog parked nearby. Bonus: This sign will be handy after the baby is here, for many social media moments to come.
Photograph your pup with a recognisable baby item to announce your pregnancy. We are partial to our very own SNOO smart baby cot, but you could use a stroller, box of nappies, cot…or whatever else your pet is willing to pose with!
The prop says it all with this super cute dog’s baby announcement. All you need is a pair of baby shoes (a bonnet or dummy would work, too), and a cuddly dog to make it happen.
It is a little 'out there,' but a personalised onesie printed with your dog’s face all over it is just about the most unique way to share your baby news. Simply take a photo of this, beside the dog or alone, and let everyone connect the dots. Bonus: The outfit will look really cute on Baby later!
It is a simple—and affordable—way to spread the news. Adding dog paws to your family’s baby announcement is a sweet reminder that your fur babies are an integral part of the pack.
Find 'best friend' shirts for Dog and Baby and all of Facebook will delight! These shirts are such a cute way to spread the news, and will be precious to wear again once Baby is here.
Know ahead of time which dog is on on what detail? Even if you do not, a funny sign like this that celebrates your dogs’ unique personalities and shares the pregnancy news—perfect (...or should we say pawfect?)!
