Announcing a pregnancy is one of the most exciting moments in life. Telling family members and loved ones that you're expecting a bundle of joy is just so blissful and special.

But nowadays, making a pregnancy announcement is no longer as simple as picking up the phone and calling all your friends or taking a photo of your positive pregnancy test and posting it online. Oh no, these days, you need to come up with a unique and perhaps even outlandish pregnancy announcement to share on social media for the world to see.

Not only that but now you're expected to make a "gender reveal" announcement too! Whether you host a party to announce the gender of your bub or simply share it online, you best believe people will be expecting it.

Most couples wait until the 12-week mark to announce their pregnancy because the risk of miscarriage and complications is much higher during the first trimester. Sadly, between 10 and 25 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage, and approximately 80 percent of those occur in the first trimester.

But once that "safe mark" has been reached, most expecting mamas and papas no longer feel the need to keep their special news a secret. That's where the crazy pregnancy announcements come in.

In the Facebook group, 'That's It, I'm Pregnancy Announcement Shaming,' all bets are off when it comes to naming and shaming couples who have posted especially ridiculous announcements. Keep scrolling to see 40 embarrassing pregnancy announcements that will make you cringe.
