Hashtags for baby boy

New-baby posts carry a lot of feeling and usually reach family first. Tags for the announcement, the milestone or the nursery help other new parents find them, while tags that describe the baby's looks or ask for likes do not belong here.

Using these hashtags well

Tag the moment, not the baby
Tags like #babymilestones or #annaprashan find other parents and family. They keep the post about the event.
Think about what a public post shows
Babies cannot choose what goes online. If you would rather keep photos to family, use a private account or a close friends list, and leave out the full name and hospital.
Use ceremony names that fit your family
Naamkaran, Annaprashan, Godh bharai and Barasala are named differently in each region. Use the word your family uses.

Questions

What hashtags can I use to announce a baby boy?

Use #itsaboy and #babyboy with a tag for your feeling, like #newparents. Keep the set short for a personal announcement.

Is it okay to use hashtags on baby photos?

It is your choice. Public hashtags make a post searchable, so many parents use a private account or avoid tags on photos of the baby's face.

Are there hashtags for baby ceremonies in India?

Yes. Tags like #naamkaran, #annaprashan and #godhbharai are used by families posting about those events.
