How to announce the coming of future baby to her companion, her loved ones?
It's not always easy to keep this good news to yourself.
To announce it to family and loved ones some wait until the 3 first months of pregnancy and the ultrasound have passed to tell.
The ultrasound of the third month confirms that the pregnancy is going well. Even if we are impatient, some prefer to wait because it would be painful to announce a miscarriage after celebrating the arrival of a baby. To finally announce this happy news, some take advantage of a family celebration, to show the ultrasound, do riddles, show a photograph like a "Baby, coming soon" movie poster…and finally share this happiness.
So use your imagination to learn in a funny, moving or mysterious way the future arrival of your baby.

It's up to you!
