Welcoming a Baby: What to Write in a Newborn Greeting Card


Babies are pure magic—tiny bundles of joy that bring so much love (and sleepless nights!) into the world. When a new baby arrives, friends and family rush to send their best wishes, often with heartfelt, sentimental messages that celebrate the little one's arrival. But let’s be real—parenthood is just as chaotic as it is beautiful!
While sweet and traditional messages are always lovely, sometimes you want something with a little more personality—something that reflects the joy, humor, and real-life moments that come with welcoming a newborn (or two!). Whether you’re writing a card for a baby girl, baby boy, or even twins, here are some heartfelt, witty, and realistic messages that will bring a smile to the new parents’ faces.


Messages for a newborn baby girl Card
Welcome to the world, little queen! Your parents will now spend their days marveling at your cuteness—and their nights wondering why babies don’t come with a sleep mode.
Tiny hands, big dreams, and a heart-melting smile—you’ve got a future superstar on your hands. Wishing you all the joy (and naps) in the world!
Get ready for a life filled with stuffed animals, princess debates, and finding tiny socks in the strangest places. Enjoy every second!
She’s already got the looks, now it’s just a matter of time before she starts giving orders. Wishing you love, patience, and maybe some earplugs!
Pink or not, princess or rebel, she’s going to take over your world in the best way possible. Wishing you all the love and laughter ahead!
May your days be filled with giggles, your nights with sleep (eventually), and your heart with so much love you’ll forget how tired you are.
She’s cute now, but soon enough, she’ll be running circles around you and talking non-stop. Better rest up while you can!
Your little girl has arrived, which means your home is about to be filled with a whole lot of love—and probably a lifetime supply of tiny hair accessories.

Sleep now, because before you know it, your little guy will be climbing everything in sight and asking "Why?" 500 times a day!
Welcome to a world where everything suddenly becomes a drum, food is meant to be thrown, and love is endless. Enjoy!
Your little man is here! Get ready for belly laughs, silly faces, and that magical moment when he says “Mama” or “Dada” for the first time.
