Announcing your pregnancy is one of the most exciting experiences of motherhood. But there’s more fun to be had when it’s time to reveal the gender of your baby! It’s a great opportunity for family and friends to gather in suspense, waiting to find out if your little one will be a boy or a girl.

When it comes to having a baby, celebrities are exactly like us! They think of cool and creative ways to tell the world about the gender of their baby. From baby gender cakes, balloon popping, and paint fights, sky’s the limit! The only difference is that word gets around faster when they share the news on social media.

Four of our favorite celebrities recently shared their pink and blue baby news on Instagram. Let’s check out their gender reveals!

Iya Villania-Arellano

Drew and Iya revealed their baby’s gender by doing their CrossFit workout. At the end, they did the toes to bar move to pop the balloon. Baby number 2 is a boy!

We got a chance to hear Iya talk about her gender reveal, “When people watch the video, akala nila alam ko yung gender. But I didn’t. I didn’t open the test results, binigay ko na sa bestfriend ko. There are some reveals na alam na ng magulang, pero eto talaga, hindi ko alam! Gusto kong magulat! I actually dreamed that it was a boy. I looked at Drew and said, I had a dream that it was another boy.”

The anticipation is over!! Devoured this Banana Chocolate Chip Cake (I have been dreaming about it 🤤) which served as the gender revelation for my parents. This took place as soon as we arrived in LA (thanks Chris & Shan for organising) because keeping it a secret couldn't have lasted any longer… We having a BABY BOY 💙🧢🦕🚙💎🚹
