Frequently Asked Questions
What should I write in a baby boy card?
Start with a warm congratulations, add one sentence about the baby or parents, and end with a good wish for health and happiness. Two to four sentences are plenty. See our guide on how to congratulate someone on their new baby for more ideas.
What is a good message for a baby boy shower card?
Choose something that celebrates the coming baby and the parents-to-be, such as ‘Wishing you a smooth journey as you get ready to meet your little boy.’ Avoid giving advice about birth or parenting unless asked.
Can I use humour in a baby boy card?
Yes, if it is light and kind. Jokes about coffee, tiny socks and sleepless nights are well received. Skip anything about the mother’s body, labour or the baby’s appearance.
Should I mention the baby’s name?
If the parents have announced the name, using it makes the card feel personal. If you are unsure of the spelling, ask or leave it out and write ‘your little boy’ instead.

A baby boy card does not need to be perfect. It needs to be sincere, and sincere words are easy once you have a few ideas to start from. Pick a message, make it yours and send it with love.
