What To Write In A New Baby Card: 42 Sweet And Thoughtful Baby Card Messages
There is nothing better than celebrating the safe arrival of a new baby. It can be a completely joyful time, but also incredibly overwhelming for new parents. Sending a new baby card to congratulate them on their new arrival, that offers words of congratulations, support and encouragement, is a really thoughtful and lovely way to help them celebrate. But sometimes it can be hard to know what to write in a new baby card, being such a momentous and important occasion.
That’s where I can help! I’m Jess, and I run Jess A Little Creative, a small greeting card business from my home studio in Cheltenham. I am incredibly passionate about encouraging people to send thoughtful, special cards for the big and small, the good and bad moments in life, to help us all connect in a meaningful way. And I have written 42 sweet and thoughtful baby card messages, to give you some inspiration when writing your own new baby card.
Feel free to copy the messages word-for-word, simply take inspiration from them, or personalise them as you wish! I hope they make the task of writing a thoughtful new baby card a bit easier. And I can guarantee the overwhelmed, sleep-deprived new parents will massively appreciate the thought and care you put into it.
As a greeting card business, I design a wide range of highly unique new baby cards, so do check them out if you still need to buy one!
