How to announce my pregnancy to family and friends overseas via Christmas card?

hiya asked:


I cannot make it home for Christmas to share the exciting news so I thought it would be nice to share it via Christmas card. I would like a fun and creative idea that is not too expensive and can fit in a small envelope. I have many close family members and friends to send it to. I cannot find pregnancy announcement cards living in Ireland to send and I am running out of time.. Thanks for the help…:0)

    Maybe you could hand make a card shaped like a baby diaper and close each card with a diaper pin or ribbon before inserting it into the envelope?

    You can download and print a pattern here

    Congratulations!

    Perhaps.. if your married (with no kids yet), you could simply write:

    Merry Christmas,
    with love from the 3 of us.

    And they’d be like “WHAT?!? 3?!?” and call you! I like when people have creative ways of telling others of their pregnancy instead of just flat out.

    a copy of your first scan would be good!!

    If you have had a scan yet, put the little scan picture inside each card.

    or

    perhaps be all….

    Well if you’ve already had an ultrasound, I would take that and make copies and turn them into cards or take them print one side a regular card and on the inside of the ultrasound with a funny smart little paragraph.

    My family lives in Germany and this is how I told my parents:
    I pasted a picture of a stork and baby into a word document and wrote that they are going to be grandparents. I then emailed it and called my parents via msn messanger. We both have a camera. I talked to them and then told them that I send them a funny email. They opened it up and read it and the whole time I could watch their faces. It was great!

    I use an online service. You can create your own card there and then they would print it and mail it for you.

    Congratulations on the baby!
