  • Bump shot

When should you announce your pregnancy

Most people wait until after the 12 week scan to put out pregnancy announcements.

Before putting the announcement on social media or to your wider friends, it’s probably best to let your closest family and loved ones know first to ensure the most important people know.

If you are doing a digital pregnancy announcement then you could forward them your image that you plan to post on social media via message so they see it before anyone else.
