Baby Shower Thank You Card

A family that is friends with me and my husband got us 2 big baskets and 1 toy box filled with great baby shower gifts, It is a LOT of stuff!
I just want to know how to send out a thank you card for that, I know you are suppose to kind of include a note about everthing you got from a person in the card so that it feels more personal, but I don't think I can thank them for every individual thing and have it fit in one card...what should I do?

Just give a general thank you for all the gifts and how you are so appreciative that they tried to cover all your needs. Mention the toy box and how you plan to use it. Mention the baskets if you can use those as well (great laundry hampers, or for storing diaper supplies in other rooms). Just pick one or two of the things and mention those specifically. If you write a big long list, it sounds insincere- which I know is the last thing you want to be.

I had my baby shower thrown for me last Saturday, April 4th. I know I need to send out thank you cards soon, but is it wrong to wait until the baby is born (around May 21st) then send the thank you cards with a family picture in it? So basically, by the time we get family pictures done and get the thank you cards out around the first week of June, it'll be 2 months after the shower. Is that too late?

I think it is better to send out the thank you cards now - simple, personal ones with a message for each person.

After you have a baby, you can send out a birth announcement with a picture. A lot can happen after you have the baby and sending out the thank you cards are not a priority. No one expects long personal messages on birth announcements as you just had a baby - so it is much simpler to get them made, stuff the envelops and get them in the mail.

Congrats and best wishes for a happy & healthy pregnancy!

A friend of mine just had her bridal shower and I received a thank you note with a cute little poem on it thanking me for my gift. Well my baby shower was last weekend and I'd like to use a cute poem for my thank you cards. Does anyone know of a good website with a few to choose from or any that they've heard? Thanks!

Rather than taking up room on the card with a cute poem, just write a sincere, honest message. (I'm going to assume that you do NOT intend the poem to actually replace a personal, handwritten thank you message. That would be completely unacceptable.)

I need help writing Thank you cards for my baby shower. Should I say thank you for what I specifically got from them or just a general thank you? Like some of the gifts was several things like clothes, bibs, spoons, bottles ect. all from the same person. Should I list everything that they gave me in the card? Need some suggestions. Thanks so much!

I would say "thank you for all of the adorable baby gifts! I can't wait to try the sleeper on the new baby", or something like that. Single one thing out that you can't wait to use so they are aware you actually remember what they gave you. Good luck with your baby!

I am having a baby shower and i wanted to send out thank you cards but i have no clue what to say inside of these blank cards... can anyone help me thanks!!! I don't just wanna say thank you i wanted it to say something nice!

I remember having the same anxiety too when I was filling out my baby shower cards.... :)

I made sure that I mentioned what the gift was and how the baby was going to use it...

ex: "Thank you so much for the gorgeous pink sweater for Julia! I was looking for something warm but cute for her to wear during the winter months! She's going to look great!"

or

"Thanks so much for the beautiful swing! I know we'll be using this a lot during those restless nights with Julia!"

Hope that helps....
