    Spell out your announcement on the tile rack to let your loved ones in on the good news, “We’re pregnant!” Or, for a sillier twist, arrange tons of baby-related words on the Scrabble board, like “crib,” “diapers,” and “booties.” Then, caption your photo, “Huh. It feels like there might be a theme here…” [18]

    On the front of one, write a cute message: “Someone’s due to pop!” Include your due date under the message. Then, pose with your own bump next to your balloon creation. Your circle will love your fun message! [19]
    • Or, pose with your partner. Blow up a balloon, stick it under their shirt, and pose while both of you look pained. Caption the photo, “We’re in this together.”

    When you break the news to your loved ones, choose an announcement idea that lets them know you’re not just pregnant, you’re pregnant with two little bundles of joy. [20]
    • Post of photo of two custom made onesies. Have one read, “Copy” and the next read, “Paste.”
    • Or, post of photo of your sonogram with a funny, sweet caption. “It must have been buy one get one free or something…”
    • Take two photos, one of you fake throwing up, one of your partner. In the first photo, hold up a sign that says, “I’m pregnant.” Over the photo of your partner, hold one that says, “With twins!”
    • Or, go for a Dr. Seuss theme. Dress up as classic characters with your partner and caption the photo, "All we need now is Thing #1 and Thing #2!"
