6. Blake Lively
Blake Lively shared her and hubby Ryan Reynold’s pregnancy news on her lifestyle website, Preserve (which was recently shut down). The Gossip Girl actress published an article celebrating all expectant mothers and stated: “Preserve at its core is about family. Family is the single word our founder, Blake built this home on. We have something for men, for women, for the old, but we realized, we don’t have anything for the new. With family on our mind, we looked to the origin of it all—to the women in our lives who are right there, at that special moment; at the creation of family…Congratulations to all the expecting mothers out there.” The piece was published alongside beautiful photographs of Blake holding her baby bump.

5. Ashton Kutcher
In a blog post, Ashton shared 8 baby photos and it was titled, “One of these is Mila and Ashton’s baby…and her name is Wyatt.” And while a couple of the photos were of animals, we can understand why the couple wasn’t to keen to share a public photo of their baby without a little mystery. Ashton included a message with the photos, “Mila and I would like to welcome Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher to the world. May your life be filled with wonder, love, laughter, health, happiness, curiosity, and privacy. Can you guess which one is ours, or does it really matter? All babies are cute. –Ashton.”
