The birth of a new baby is such a special time! It’s a sweet period full of memories that will last forever. People typically take many photos during this time to cherish their precious bundle of joy. Your friends and family have patiently awaited your baby’s birth, and this is the perfect time to give them a glimpse of your babe by announcing their arrival via mail with a birth announcement. I think it is such a personal and unique touch!
There are so many great birth announcements that it can be overwhelming. If you haven’t scheduled a newborn photography session yet, you can use a photo you’ve snapped yourself. Newborns tend to be very photogenic since they sleep most of the time. It’s easy to grab a great shot of them with your smartphone, and then you can use a website service to create a birth announcement!
20 Birth Announcements We Love
Here are 20 of the cutest birth announcements we love for you to choose from:

I hope you find a card that fits your family’s personality and style beautifully. Congratulations on your newborn, and enjoy this special time!
