You don't want to get stressed out about doing your baby announcements so here are a few tips that can eliminate that stress. If at all possible, before you have your baby write a list of your friends and relatives that you would like to send announcements to. Try to get a head start on your announcement by picking out a couple of different baby announcements (one for a boy and one for a girl) and then you customize them when your baby arrives. You may also be able to order your envelopes ahead of time in which case you can have them stamped, addressed and ready to go. The sooner you get your baby announcement mailed out, the better, but remember not to over-do-it.

Don't forget to send out a baby announcement when you adopt a child. On these baby (or child) announcements include the "birth date" and "arrival date" (if the child is older).
