Birth Announcements

With all the social media outlets we have now...Do people still send these?

If you've gotten them, do you keep them or toss them out?

I sent them for my Dd so I will send them again. Plus, people love getting the pic of the new baby. I keep them as long as they have a picture. I have a drawer full of birth announcements and photo wedding thank you's. It's fun to go through and see all the pics from time to time. (My grandmother keeps a photo album of all the photo cards she receives).

I plan to wait until I get my newborn shoot pics, and then make something on Shutterfly bc I have a credit with them.

I've received a couple...if they are family or very close friends I keep them up. Others stay up for about a month or so then I throw away. It's nice to see a picture of the baby...and the newborn pictures are always so adorable.

We have received one each time someone close to us has a baby. I have kept all of them - some are still on the fridge, others are where I keep photos.

We've gotten a few from close friends and I have them up on our fridge. They're super cute to get!

Re: Birth Announcements

I sent one a few weeks after dd was born. I have one in a frame now and one in her baby book. There's nothing like having something physical for the memory and sentimental value.

Re: Birth Announcements

We still get them and we plan on sending them out.

Honestly, it's the one thing I hope never goes away!

We always hang them up on our fridge, and then replace them when/if we end up getting a Christmas card w/the pixx.

Re: Birth Announcements

We get them and I save them in my yearly photo album.

I send them out using Shutterfly as they always have promotions and sales.
