10 Easter Pregnancy Announcement Ideas To Check Out

1. Hatching A Little One

One fun Easter pregnancy announcement is to say that you are hatching a little one. There are so many cute ways to use the word "Hatching" in your pregnancy announcement, but one of the most popular ways is to say the date that your child will be born. For example, if your child will be born in October, you could write that your child will be "Hatching in October". To make your pregnancy announcement even cuter, you could write these words on an egg. Hand the egg to friend or family member and wait to see if they understand the message, or snap a photo of the egg along with your baby's ultrasound pictures. Be creative when using this saying with your Easter pregnancy announcement. 

2. Hide the Big News In An Easter Egg

If your family enjoys doing an Easter egg hunt every year, try hiding a message inside one of the eggs. The message can say anything you'd like it to say, from cute sayings like "Egg-Specting A Little One" to simple messages that announce the due date. If you happen to have an ultrasound picture, you could hide that in the egg as well. This pregnancy announcement idea is a perfect way to announce your pregnancy to your other children. Even if you don't plan on doing an Easter egg hunt, you can still give a friend or family member an Easter basket with the big news in one of the eggs. 

3. "Some Bunny Is Going To Be A Big Sister/Brother"

If you already have children, you'll want to find a way to announce the big news to them. One way to let your children know that they are going to be a big brother or sister is to give them a shirt that states, "Some Bunny Is Going To Be A Big Brother/Sister". You can then share the news with others by snapping a photo of your child wearing the shirt. If you don't have any other children, you can use this same idea for soon-to-be cousins, grandparents, or your husband. 

4. Wear A "Mama Bunny" Shirt

Another pregnancy announcement idea is to wear a "Mama Bunny" shirt on Easter and wait to see if anyone notices your outfit. This would be a fun way to announce your pregnancy to your entire family when they come over for Easter brunch or dinner. Another idea is to wear your "Mama Bunny" shirt for your maternity photo shoot. What's nice about "Mama Bunny" shirts is that you can continue to wear them even after your child is born. If you want to match, you can get your baby a matching outfit that says "Baby Bunny". 

5. Pose With A Pregnancy Easter Basket For Your Maternity Photo Shoot

If you plan on doing your maternity photo shoot around Easter, you may want to consider posing with a pregnancy Easter basket. Creating a pregnancy Easter basket is simple. To begin, you'll need a basket similar to Easter gift baskets. Fill the basket with baby supplies, such as baby shoes, a baby outfit, and a stuffed animal. A pregnancy book may look cute in your basket, such as the book "What To Expect When Expecting". You can also place your ultrasound picture in the basket. Once you have filled your pregnancy Easter basket, pose with the basket in your hand for your maternity photograph. If you want, you can wear an Easter pregnancy shirt, such as a "Mama Bunny" shirt.

6. Write the Egg-Citing News On A Chalkboard

For those who want to share their pregnancy announcement on social media, you may want to post a picture of a chalkboard with the news written on it. There are so many creative Easter sayings to use that announce your pregnancy. Remember to use words like "Egg-specting", "Some Bunny", and "Egg-cited". 

7. Paint Hard Boiled Eggs In Pink Or Blue To Reveal Your Baby's Gender

If you wait to share the big news until you know the gender of your baby, it may be fun to paint hard boiled eggs in the colors of your baby's gender. Once you have painted all of the eggs, snap a picture of them along with your ultrasound photo and due date. If you have chosen your baby's name, you can write it on one of the eggs. For a fun activity with friends and family, you can fill plastic Easter eggs with candy wrapped in blue and pink wrappers. The person who finds the egg with only pink candy or blue candy will know that your child's gender is either a boy or girl. 

8. Hold Fresh Blooms For Your Maternity Photo Shoot

If you'd like to have a simple maternity photo shoot done, consider holding fresh flowers in your one hand and your other hand on your stomach. Flowers are a symbol of spring, which is why many people choose to use them for their Easter pregnancy announcement. Great flowers to use include daffodils, tulips, and roses. The longer you wait to take your maternity photo shoot, the more obvious your baby bump will be. Most people have their maternity photos taken at 30 weeks pregnant. If you take your maternity photos too early, your baby bump won't be round shaped. However, if you wait too long, your baby bump may become heavy and you won't be able to hold poses for a long period of time. Thirty weeks is the recommended time to have your maternity photos taken. 

9. Bake An Easter Cake With Your Ultrasound Picture As the Cake Topper

If you enjoy baking, you could announce your pregnancy by baking an Easter cake and having your ultrasound picture be the cake topper. Serve the cake as the Easter dessert and wait to see if anybody notices the picture on top. If you know the gender of your baby, you could use either pink or blue frosting. Otherwise, include both pink and blue frosting on the cake. Another idea for using an Easter cake as your Easter pregnancy announcement is to write out your baby's due date on the cake using frosting. Be sure to take a picture of the cake so that you always remember this exciting day!

10. Have An Easter Egg Painted On Your Stomach

Looking for a creative way to announce your pregnancy? Try painting an Easter egg on your stomach. Belly art has become very popular over the years and can be used as a way to announce your pregnancy. While there are many belly art ideas, for an Easter pregnancy announcement, you'll want to stick with an Easter theme. Easter eggs are easy to paint on your baby bump and are a great way to let people know that a baby is going to be "hatching" soon. Make sure you let your henna artist know if you have any skin allergies and make sure the henna is completely natural. It is recommended to have your stomach painted during the last trimester of pregnancy. Not only is it safer during the last trimester, but your baby bump will also be more obvious. 

An alternative to having your stomach painted is to have a pregnancy bump cast. A pregnancy bump cast is basically a plaster that you apply on your body. When the plaster hardens, you remove it from your body and you'll have a memento of your baby bump. Once your pregnancy baby bump cast is made, you can have fun painting Easter eggs on it and then sharing a photo of it with friends and family. Belly casts are completely safe for your baby and can be made at home. You can buy belly cast kits online on sites such as Amazon. The benefit of doing a belly cast instead of a belly painting is that you'll get to always keep the belly cast as a reminder of when you were pregnant with your baby.
