Sure, some people will already have heard via FB or email- but I think it's a nice touch, especially as keepsakes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5798 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 07:25:16 +0000 Andrea 5798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I sent out a traditional paper announcement and most of my friends have done the same as well. I enjoy getting them and I have them all up on my bulletin board! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5793 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 02:41:43 +0000 looch 5793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a FB announcement for everyone that's on it, but the majority of the people we wanted to reach don't use it, so we sent a traditional paper announcement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5783 Sat, 22 Oct 2011 22:01:00 +0000 SAHM0811 5783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we didn't send one out for our first... but did with #2 by making one on shutterfly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5775 Sat, 22 Oct 2011 21:25:56 +0000 yin 5775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made the announcement on my blog and sent an email out to my friends. My sister sent out an adorable announcement through Tiny Prints with my niece's picture from the hospital, and I wish I had done the same. Next time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5771 Sat, 22 Oct 2011 21:22:20 +0000 swgal 5771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kind of regret not sending out a formal announcement. We did the facebook thing, and called close friends, but I think I would have loved having a nice picture card as a keepsake. I think we were so caught up in newborn land that it just wasn't a priority. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-sending-out-a-birth-announcement#post-5768 Sat, 22 Oct 2011 21:16:13 +0000 mrbee 5768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't send out a birth announcement for Charlie or Olive... unless you count the blog post on Hellobee! :-)</p> <p>I think these days, a lot of people txt or email their birth announcement.. also, Facebook seems pretty popular for announcements!</p> <p>Are you sending out a baby or birth announcement? If so, I'm curious how you made the announcement... </p>
