Announcing the Birth of a Son on Tisha B'Av

Question

Is there a Halachic reason not to inform family members about the birth of a son on Tisha B'Av, at least until midday?

Answer

It seems that until Chatsot there is a reason for this, since during that time one is meant to focus solely on mourning.
