I first stumbled upon these announcement cakes on Pinterest, and now they’re pretty much all I see! Honestly, I believe no milestone is too small to celebrate with a slice of cake.
Get ready to indulge in over 25 charming, adorable, and downright delicious ideas that will turn your big reveal into an unforgettable moment. Let’s whip up some excitement!
When is the right time to announce your pregnancy?
Figuring out the perfect moment to share the news is a deeply personal decision. With both of my pregnancies, I decided to wait until the second trimester. That gave me a bit more peace of mind, though the right timing really comes down to what feels best for you.
Announcing early can help build your support system from the start, while waiting offers more privacy and space to process things on your own. Just weigh what matters most to you, and choose a path that fits your journey.
