Frequently asked questions

How personal can a baby wish from a close friend be?

Very — this is the page to reference inside jokes, shared history, or years of friendship. A close-friend message can be far more personal than a general card.

What if my friend has been trying to have a baby for a long time?

Lean into the joy without dwelling on the wait — a line like "someday is here" or "I've watched you dream about this" acknowledges the journey warmly without making it the focus.
