Choosing the Right Birth Announcement... Part 2

As you gear up for the big day, you’ll want to make sure you have your birth announcements taken care of before you go into labor. This will not only bring peace and rest to your mind but it will also allow you more time to actually think through the different options and decisions regarding the birth announcement. After you have your baby, you’ll be consumed with caring for him or her and won’t have much time to simply sit and think about the announcement. Take time before hand and follow these simple steps when choosing one that is perfect for you.
The first step in choosing the right birth announcement is to decide what kind of style you want. There are a lot of various options available so you’ll want to take your time and browse through different galleries. I recommend going with style that matches the baby’s nursery. This way you carry the theme of his or her life through all aspects. Another way to choose the style is by getting a general vibe of your family personality; are you traditional, modern and trendy or simple.
Next, consider who the birth announcement is going to. If it’s mainly going to your friends you may be able to be a bit more loose and fun in your message. If it’s going to your family and they’re a little older than you may want to stick to a more traditional style. Many families have traditions with announcing a new birth. Make sure you talk with both sides of the family to ensure you don’t offend anyone. You can do whatever you want, but just communicate with those in the family of your intentions.
Lastly, check the price and compare it with your budget. You don’t want to go over budget so this factor is very important. Many people shop without money in mine and that could lead to arguments and disagreements down the road. Before you purchase anything know how much it costs, if there are shipping costs and taxes included. Talk it over with your spouse and then buy them with confidence.
