Little One Arriving Pregnancy Announcement Plaque

A little one, a special month, news worth sharing

Announce your happy news with a Little One Arriving pregnancy announcement plaque, personalised with your due month and year. Simple wording, flowing script and a scattering of stars give your photograph a personal detail without needing to share a baby name.

Hold it beside your scan, photograph it together in your hands, or place it with a tiny pair of booties. Once you have shared the news, keep the wooden plaque with your pregnancy photographs as a reminder of the month you were looking forward to.

The details that make it special

• LITTLE One Arriving wording with your own month and year.
• Permanent laser engraving directly into the wood.
• Stars and a small outlined heart in a simple, gender-neutral design.
• Natural birch plywood, approximately 3 mm thick, with visible wood grain.
• Three size choices for your announcement photograph or keepsake arrangement.
• No baby name needed — share when your little one is expected while keeping the name a surprise.
• A physical wooden keepsake to keep after the announcement.

How to personalise your plaque

1. Choose your size using the product options.
2. Due month & year: enter the month and year exactly as you would like them engraved, for example May 2027.
3. Check the details before adding the plaque to your basket. Please check spelling and the year in particular.

Finished wording example:
LITTLE
One
Arriving
May 2027

The star and heart details are included in the standard design. The date in the photographs and the form placeholder is an example; please enter your own due month and year. You do not need to enter a surname for this design. If you prefer to omit the date, enter no date in the box.

For a different main message, unusual date wording or an extra line, please contact us before ordering so we can confirm the layout. The personalisation graphic in the gallery shows which part of the standard design you can change.

Choose your size

Small: approximately 12 × 12 cm.
Large: approximately 15 × 18 cm.
XL: approximately 20 × 24 cm.

All sizes use approximately 3 mm birch plywood. Please check the measurements listed in the selector before ordering; styled photographs show composition ideas and are not a scale guide. A smaller plaque suits a close-up arrangement or memory box, while a larger option makes the wording more prominent in a wider photograph.

Ideas for your Little One announcement

Beside your scan: let the plaque and ultrasound photograph tell the story together. A simple blanket or plain background keeps the wording easy to read.

Held together: capture the plaque in your hands or pose together for a pregnancy photograph. Soft daylight helps the wood grain and engraved detail show clearly.

A little flat lay: arrange your plaque with cream booties, a folded baby outfit or a soft muslin. Leave room around the plaque so the month and year remain the focal point.

A surprise for the family: reveal the plaque in person or share your photograph with grandparents and loved ones. After the announcement, keep it alongside your scan pictures in an album or memory box.

What your order includes

One personalised wooden plaque in your selected size. All lettering and decorative details are engraved into the surface. Ultrasound prints, clothing, booties, blankets, flowers and the album are styling props and are not included. No stand is supplied.
