April the first - April Fools Day prank pregnancy announcement


This date is not as much about the due date as when you would actually wear the shirt. That’s because it’s an April Fool prank shirt that says knocked up on the front and April Fool on the back. I can imagine it being appropriate for a variety of situations. For example if you’re a childless couple and you’re feeling pressure to start a family, this prank could be a fun way to tell them to back off. Or at the other end of the spectrum if you have a large family, people might be wondering whether you’re going to announce yet another addition to the family. That makes them prime targets for this joke shirt too.

You can play a similar joke even when it’s not April Fool’s Day, with more general joke pregnancy announcement tshirts etc that say ‘I’M PREGNANT on the front and ‘I’M JOKING’ on the back at www.cafepress.com/materni_tee/1309831
All these designs are based on our original KNOCKED UP tanks and t-shirts that don’t say anything on the back which are great for announcing your pregnant.

Simple Impressions: ETA and month of due date

eta November

A novel take on the due date is to use the letters ETA which normally mean ‘Estimated Time of Arival’ above the month of your due date. The designer has framed these words in an elipse and a love heart with wings, to create a simple but striking graphic, even with just the black and the grey. You can see the whole range of designs at this page .


Or you can get straight to the month of your baby’s ETA by clicking on the month of your due date below:
January,
February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November or December.

I also like their range of simple hats. for the mom, dad and extended family even though they’re not shirts and they’re not about due dates lol.

She Knows Network: Month-by-month



There are cute shirt designs for a due date in each month at the online shop of the She Knows Network .

They’ve gone to a lot of effort to make each month different and apply the design to a wide range of products. There are currently just a few examples of the design not fitting perfectly onto one of the products such as a licence plate frame, but on most of the products, and on the shirts in particular, these designs look great.
You may not associate the chosen motif with the month of your due date. For example they chose an anchor and the sun for May. But if you’re looking for some bright and cheerful due date announcement shirts, it’s worth checking out their offering by clicking on the month of your due date below:
January,
February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November orDecember.

Due date and gender


You get a double whammy with these colourful pregnancy announcement shirts and stuff because as well as announcing the month of your due date they also announce the sex of your baby. As I blog this they have only covered off October boys, October girls, November girls and December boys. But you will be able to find any new sections from the main page here



One reason I wanted to give them an early plug is that their profits from all sales will go towards buying and designing a new website and message board for the BBB Preggo Pals!

Due Date Shirts for all seasons.

Due in Winter
Naturally, the first due date announcement shirts I found were my own, at Materni-Tee.com (TM). There are four designs featuring seasonal photography and a caption announcing that the wearer's baby is due in Winter, Spring, Summer or the Fall. The inspiration for this set came from the photographer at Blue Ridge Pictures when he offered the Summer and Winter photographs for our use. These due date designs are ready to go on a wide range of shirts and other products. When you wear these shirts, you’re saying the season of your estimated due date in pictures as well as words.
