Birth Announcements - Too Late?

DD will be 7 weeks old on Tuesday...is it too late to send out birth announcements? I should've been on top of it, but, I've spent so much time just enjoying her!

Re: Birth Announcements - Too Late?

Definitely not too late. People don't expect them immediately. Besides trying to get a picture you like for them, people understand you're home trying to take care of a newborn!

We had friends who had their baby in September who sent combo birth announcements / christmas card. You could always do combo birth announcements / easter cards if you're really worried about it, but I think you're fine to just do regular birth announcements now if you want.

DS was 2 months old when we sent ours. I combined them with Christmas cards so it was 2 for the price of 1!!!

Same with me. They just arrived to all of my family last week when she was about 9 weeks old. It took so long to get the professional pictures, so I had to wait.

I have received a few announcements from friends too that were sent around 2-3 months old.

You'll be fine!!! Everyone will want to see your cutie.Chat Icon Never too late

Not at all...if you celebrate Easter or St. Patty's Day you can do something along those lines. For my son I did a Christmas one that read "Christmas came early this Year!" Maybe you can do something like"Look what the Eater bunny delivered, etc", lol.

not too late at all! I sent DD's out when she was 6-7 weeks and I have gotten birth announcements from people whose babies were up to 4 months or so!
