Simple Nerdy Pregnancy Announcements
As a lazy nerd, I wanted an easy but nerdy pregnancy announcement. When I had morning sickness and was busy with work, doctor’s appointments, and daily naps, I didn’t have time or energy to come up with anything elaborate to send to my friends and family, or stage a photo of me and my partner in expensive costumes. So I’ve gathered several simple ideas here for anyone who want to quickly make geeky pregnancy announcements.
Harry Potter Pregnancy Announcements
There’s the classic Azkaban wanted poster, courtesy of Pinterest
And the site MuggleNet has lots of Potter-related images for pregnancy announcements, like this one.
Other great Harry Potter-related captions I’ve seen around the internet:
- We solemnly swear we were up to no good (goes great with a Marauder’s Map!)
- Mischief Managed
- The Womb of Requirement
- Baby will be patiently awaiting their letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
- Will it be a witch or a wizard?
Star Trek Pregnancy Announcements
Caption ideas:
- Captain, our sensors are detecting a new life form. It appears to be a human male, and if growth continues at the present rate, I estimate that we will make contact in [month, year].
- The Next Generation: Coming [month, year]

Dungeons & Dragons and Tabletop Gaming Pregnancy Announcements
If you’re a tabletop gamer, you’ve probably filled out a lot of character sheets. Take a few minutes and fill out a custom character sheet for your little one! Most sheets have places for any information you might want to add, like potential names, gender, or even silly stats about just how much damage your baby’s unarmed strikes are doing to mom’s belly. Extra XP If you add your ultrasound into the character’s photo box, and add the date that the new campaign will begin!
