Best Pregnancy Announcement Captions

Sharing that you’re expecting is one of life’s most exciting moments. After you’ve told your closest family and friends, the next step is often a social media post. 

But finding the right words to go with that perfect photo can be tricky. You want a caption that captures your joy, matches your personality, and gets all the “likes” it deserves.

How to Choose the Right Caption

Before you start scrolling, think about the photo you’re posting. The best caption will match the vibe of your announcement. 

Here are a few things to consider:

Your Tone

Are you a comedian or a sentimentalist? Choose a caption that reflects your personality. A funny one-liner is perfect for a goofy photo, while a heartfelt quote works well with a romantic shot.

Your Photo

Let the image guide you. A picture of your pet next to an ultrasound needs a different caption than a holiday-themed announcement.

Your Audience

While it’s your news, think about who you’re sharing it with. A caption that’s a bit cheeky might be great for friends but less so for your grandma.

The Platform

Instagram loves short, punchy captions with emojis, while Facebook gives you more room to tell a longer story.

Funny & Clever Pregnancy Announcement Captions

If you and your partner love to laugh, a humorous caption can be the perfect way to announce your news.
