12 Adorable Valentine’s Day Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
The holiday of love is coming up and you have some exciting news of your own to share. What better way to create even more joy than to combine the two? If you have your heart set on a Valentine’s Day pregnancy announcement, we’re here to help make it happen!
Discover fun ideas and top tips for planning an announcement to share with loved ones whether it’s in person, online, or in an announcement card.
How to Make Your Valentine’s Day Pregnancy Announcement
Before deciding on the perfect Valentine’s Day pregnancy announcement idea, you first want to determine how you want to make the big reveal — in person, on social media, or with a traditional or digital card.
In Person Announcement
Sharing your happy news with loved ones in person is always sweet, but it can be hard to coordinate — especially if you’re planning a pregnancy announcement party with multiple family members and friends.
To announce the news to your nearest and dearest in person, think about whether you want a low-key announcement after dinner or a big surprise reveal party. Whichever option you choose, have your sonogram pics on hand and have fun sharing about your journey so far.
Social Media Surprise
These days, many parents-to-be choose to share the news on social media, and there’s good reason for that. It’s easier than ever to reach relatives and friends across the globe with no delay. Plus, announcing on social media isn’t an either/or situation — you can always phone your closest loved ones (or send them a digital card) with the news first!
Preparing a social media announcement can be a lot of fun. Stage a photoshoot, choose which image(s) to share, and write a fun note about your exciting news. A social media announcement allows you to share and invites others to reply with their congratulations too.
A Pregnancy Announcement Card

Card idea: Cupid Has Been Busy Announcement
Sending a pregnancy announcement card is another wonderful option that goes beyond simply sending a plain text or email. When you choose a digital card, you get to share your news in a thoughtful, creative way — and it’s in a format that mixes traditional elements with modern convenience and ease.
Greenvelope’s collection of digital pregnancy announcement cards has something for every parent-to-be. Whether you want an adorable baby animal illustration, watercolor florals, or something more contemporary and bold, there’s a design to match your personal style.
Every design is editable too, so you can play around with the layout, fonts, and colors to create a bespoke announcement card. Add your own image to a photo card, update the envelope liner, and add your message. Many card templates also have backside supported space so you have plenty of room to write a longer note if you like.
12 of the Sweetest Valentine’s Day Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
Sharing the news about your pregnancy on Valentine’s Day is twice as nice. For a creative way to spread the word, explore some of our favorite pregnancy announcement ideas below. From DIY chalkboard signs to Valentine’s Day-themed photoshoots and flat lays, there are plenty of options to suit your style. Speaking of twice as nice, don’t miss our selection of twin pregnancy announcements if you’re expecting two bundles of joy.
1. Valentine-Inspired Poem
Announcement photos are fun, but you don’t have to go all-in on staging a big photoshoot — you can let your words do the talking instead. Share your big news with the help of a themed poem, like a customization of the classic “roses are red, violets are blue …” or something fun and unique like, “We have a new Valentine to share with thee, a beautiful new baby you soon will see.”
2. Valentine’s Day-Themed Letter Board
Design: Claudia Owen
Announcement idea: Classic Letterboard Announcement
Let your loved ones know you’re expecting with a fun letter board baby reveal. Grab a letter board and use it to spell out key details like your family name and the baby’s due date. Keep things simple with just the board, or add heart confetti or garland for a sweeter Valentine’s Day touch.
3. Heart-Shaped Balloon Photo
Balloons are a celebration must-have, and heart balloons are a fun way to share a Valentine’s Day pregnancy announcement. For this idea, simply take a photo holding a handful of heart-shaped balloons. You can then send the photo via email, text, or on social media with a caption like “love is in the air” along with the news about your new arrival.
4. Valentine’s Day-Themed Photoshoot
Get ready to send a cute announcement card by first capturing a few Valentine’s Day-themed pregnancy announcement photos. Dress up in red, pink, or white and choose a fun background to match, or wear a pregnancy announcement shirt or T-shirt.
Once your photos are taken, select your favorite Valentine’s Day photo card on Greenvelope and upload your pics to create the perfect design. Your photos will not only make a lovely announcement but they’ll become a precious keepsake of this special moment.
5. Ultrasound Photo Announcement
Design: Signature Greenvelope
Announcement idea: We’re Expecting Announcement
Make your baby announcement the traditional way by holding up a photo of your ultrasound picture. For a Valentine’s Day twist, wear pink, red, or white — or show your photo inside a box as the ultimate Valentine’s Day gift.
6. Personalized Cookies Announcement
Who doesn’t love baked goods? Make them even sweeter by combining these delicious treats with your wonderful pregnancy reveal news. Bake (or buy) an assortment of personalized cookies with the baby’s due date or a short but sweet message like “We’re expecting” written in icing.
7. Bun in the Oven Announcement
For another food-themed idea, use the classic “bun in the oven” announcement. Baking is always popular on Valentine’s Day, so this is an adorable way to tie your exciting news into celebrating the season of love.
8. Valentine’s Day Candy Announcement
One of the best things about Valentine’s Day is the candy hearts, which makes them the perfect companion to your holiday-themed pregnancy announcement. Find a heart-shaped bowl or a glass jar and fill it with conversation hearts, then add your sonogram or a small handwritten sign to share the big news with your loved ones.
9. Themed Onesie Announcement
While parents-to-be can certainly get dressed up for the occasion, why not pick out a first outfit for your little Valentine? Share your news by holding up a baby onesie — either in Valentine’s Day colors or personalized with the bundle of joy’s due date.
10. Baby Shoes Announcement
Design: Carmia Jordaan
Announcement idea: Tiny Shoes Announcement
There’s something so adorable about a pair of tiny baby shoes. This classic pregnancy announcement idea works beautifully for Valentine’s Day — especially if you choose a pair of pink or red shoes for the reveal.
11. Chalkboard Sign Announcement
Create a chalkboard sign, then snap a photo holding the sign. You could even get siblings involved for a big brother announcement or big sister announcement. Encourage them to hold up the sign letting loved ones know they’re about to take on an exciting new role.
12. Valentine’s Day Announcement Flat Lay
Can’t decide whether you want to announce with baby shoes, a box of chocolates, candy hearts, or a baby onesie? No problem. Use them all! Gather your favorite baby-themed items and set up a cute Valentine’s flat lay as a fun and creative way to share all the things and all the love about your baby news.
