🌟 FAQ: Summer Pregnancy Announcements
When is the best time of year to do a summer baby announcement?
Most families love announcing their pregnancy in June, July, or August — especially if you want gorgeous outdoor photos and plenty of sunny celebration!
Should I announce earlier because of summer vacations?
If you want friends and family to hear it from you first (not through vacation photos or social posts), consider announcing a bit earlier than you originally planned.
How can I make sure my announcement photo looks good in bright sun?
Find a spot with open shade (like under a beach umbrella or trees), or use a wide-brim hat or sunglasses for a cute and natural look.
What should I wear for a summer pregnancy announcement?
Keep it light, comfy, and seasonally cute — sundresses, swimsuits, maternity shorts, or even flowy skirts are perfect.
