25 Clever Third Baby Announcements for a Growing Family (2024)

Cheers to More Love and Less Sleep

Babies bring so much joy and so little rest. Make a sign that reads: More love, less sleep. Baby #3 Due (due date). Have your two kids hold the sign up or have them sit by your side while you yawn loudly for the camera.

Your oldest child should wear a chalkboard and a clipboard to look like a miniature teacher. Place your youngest child (or upcoming middle child) at a small desk or table. Write on the chalkboard: Big Sibling in Training. This announcement is endearing and humorous, and it’s pretty clear that the youngest member of the family will soon be promoted to big brother or sister after receiving some instruction from the older sibling.

assemble your spouse, children, and the definitive pregnancy test. Hold up the pregnancy test and ask everyone to make an expression of surprise or fear because, well, three kids is kind of scary. Use the ideal opportunity to take a photo to announce to the world that a new family member is on the way.

This one is ideal for households with a girl and a boy already. The third baby will be the tie-breaker regarding gender. Write the following on a board sign, a chalkboard sign, or a piece of street art: Girls 1, Boys 1, and Our little tie-breaker is coming (due date).

Man-on-man defense was being used by you and your partner for a while, but that will soon change. Have the children hold one end of a rope that is tied around you and your partner. It will look as if they wrangled you, and the announcement will be extra funny when you pair the with the line: Officially outnumbered! Baby #3 arriving in (due date).

Parents who are expecting a third child often wonder what the point of having one more child is. This hilarious idea is all about the who cares mentality. Sit on the bed or the couch with your partner, yourself, and the children as you enjoy some snacks. Caption the : Whats One More? Baby #3 Coming in (due date).

Even though third children are wonderful additions to a growing family, third pregnancies occasionally come as a bit of a surprise. Play off of this feeling of stunned with your kids. Take a picture of your firstborn making a surprised face. Write the word “OH!” above the image. Caption the photo of your second child making their best surprise face with the word “MY.” Then call the parents in, accompanied by the word “GOSH” and their expressions of shock. Put them all together in order so the gallery of images says: Oh, My, Gosh!

Parenthood: The Third Sequal

Set a humorous scene of dishes, laundry, exhausted parents in robes, and a few misbehaving kids running amok because, in all honesty, THIS is what parenthood looks like! Make your announcement look like a movie advertisem*nt by writing something like:

Even though they are too young to fully comprehend why you are doing this, the kids will enjoy making something special with you because it is entertaining and creative.

When another baby is on the way, many families are simply ecstatic. A third child is a blessing for families who are eager to grow. These heartfelt third baby announcements help express the sheer joy families feel when they learn that baby #3 is coming their way.

Put a number 1 cutout in the child’s hand and place your firstborn down. Place a cut-out of the number 2 on the floor next to child number 2. Set out a pair of tiny shoes with a 3 cut out tied to the shoes for the newborn. This can also be done with balloons. Tie one balloon to the firstborn’s hand, two to the second child’s, and three to the tiny shoes that represent the third child.

This announcement is going to be a perfect fit for your team if they are athletic. Place the children in order of age on a baseball diamond, a soccer field, or a basketball court. Put everyone in their athletic attire, and at the end of the sibling line, place a ball or mitt from the sport of your choice. Include the new baby’s due date in the caption, something like: Adding to Team (Last Name).
