Utterly Adorable Pregnancy Announcements That'll Leave You Desperate For Another Baby
Now that we're living in the age of 24/7 social media, it's where many of us choose to make our big life announcements. Whether it's letting your family and friends know that you finally graduate college or that you've found yourself a new partner, people these days enjoy making announcements through selfies and statuses.
As a result, people's announcements are getting increasingly more elaborate. After all, is there anything more satisfying on watching the likes roll in after making a post you know is social media gold? When my friend graduated, he sat on a blow-up unicorn holding a beer with a sign announcing it behind him, but when it comes to pregnancy announcements, parents-to-be are in a league of their own. Because there's no better opportunity for creativity than announcing that you're about to bring a new life into the world.
