Quick Tips Before You Write

• Keep it calm and positive. A mother close to her due date wants reassurance, not advice.
• Wish for health for both mother and baby, and for an easy, peaceful delivery.
• Avoid asking “Any news yet?” again and again. Send one kind message and let the family reach out when they are ready.
• Match the person. A husband may like something steady and brief, a sister may enjoy a light joke.
• Never share medical opinions or scary stories. Good wishes only.
