I haven't seen anything like this before as a poster. Fantastic! I'm getting some for my kids but also what a great baby gift!

I love the look of the first one, from Chaiv, but it does seem a little odd that the baby weighed 8.2 oz.

LovelyDarkandDeep - I agree!

It's cute, but it also made me think back to the birth of my own little girl and I'm pretty sure that she did NOT come out smiling!

It's beautiful !!

I may be embroidering something inspired by that first poster.

I've never seen anything like these before either - they are great! I agree with others that I especially like the first one. My son just turned three but I may have one made for him/me.

Will definitely forward this to friends too.

Loora, what a beautiful idea. If you end up doing it, please show us how it turns out!

Great idea -- I still feel guilty that we had lovely birth announcements printed for our firstborn daughter, and then nothing for our son (we were in the middle of renovations and moving overseas). This would be a good solution.

Wow, I am so honored to be included in such good company! (The pink eye-chart print is from my etsy store)

I also have other typography-based birth date prints available here and here. These would work great as wedding or engagement gifts too!

Thanks ohdeedoh for supporting us!

Thank you for including my poster (Custom Baby Birth poster by Chaiv), very flattering!

And yes, that 8.2 OUNCES is a definite typo on my part! I noticed it as soon as it was posted but never got at chance to fix it. Don't worry, this is not a real baby:)

Thank you for pointing it out! Will correct it as soon as I return from vacation.

I recently ordered a Custom Baby Birth Poster from Vin. It just arrived and we LOVE it. Vin did a great job and worked hard to make sure the poster was perfect. Thanks Vin!
