Creative Ways to Announce a Pregnancy
By Carma Haley
Fun announcements can be special even when it's not your first child. "With my third pregnancy, I found out while hubby was out of town," says Wright. "I decorated the bed with all of my daughter's considerable baby doll collection. I put her baby crib in the center of the bed, with one baby doll sitting up in it, holding the positive pregnancy test."
The birth of a new baby is exciting. The joy a parent-to-be or even a second- or third-time parent feels can overflow until they want to share it with the world. This offers a wonderful opportunity to share with friends, family members and those close to you. Adding a little fun and excitement to the sharing only heightens the experience.
"I don't think it would have been so emotional if I would have just said to my husband over dinner, 'By the way honey, I'm pregnant,' says Kerrigan. "He would have still been happy and excited, but nothing like that day at the softball field. Now that he's a dad, it's a whole new ball game."
