Frequently asked questions
What should I write in a baby shower card?
Congratulate the parents, wish the baby health, and add one personal line — what kind of parent you know they'll be, or an offer of real help (“call me for babysitting, I mean it”). Warm and specific beats long and generic.
What is a short baby shower wish?
“Wishing you an easy delivery, a healthy baby, and all the joy this little life is about to bring.” It works in any card and suits any family.
Do you write the card to the mom or to both parents?
Follow the shower: if it celebrates the mom-to-be, address her; if both parents host or attend, address them both. When unsure, “to your growing family” covers everyone gracefully.
