How to Sign New Baby Cards
Whether your card stands alone or you accompany it with a gift, a baby card expresses thoughtfulness and joy that the couple has a new baby. Printed cards usually congratulate the couple on the birth of their baby, but your relationship with the couple and the circumstances surrounding the birth enable you to write a more personal message.

Signing Baby Cards
Write words that are unique to the couple by thinking about their situation. If the couple is first-time parents, you may want to tell them how wonderful it is to have a child in their life and wish them luck. If the couple is having a second or third child, you can include wishes to the new baby's siblings. Sometimes as families grow, friendships foster over generations. If this is the case, provide wishes for a new generation of friendships and joy in watching your friends' children grow. Brainstorm benefits about having a child. A child often brings laughter and unexpected joy to a family. Highlight some of the benefits of a child, and indicate that you hope the couple will experience them all. Write a short poem about your own experiences with parenting or preview poems written by other poets that express how wonderful it is to have a child. Often, if you give the poet credit, you can use the poem to express your thoughts. Previous:Signs That Baby Is Cutting Teeth
