Why need this
Baby Arriving Soon
Your baby is coming, how exciting is that? From the moment you realise that you are in labour, you will be overwhelmed with feelings. Feelings of joy: it is finally time to meet this tiny little human that has been wriggling inside you for the last 9 months. Feelings of anxiety: will all go well and will you be able to deliver this baby into the world? Feelings of frustration: delivering a baby into the world hurts; there will be times that you feel you cannot cope with this pain. All those feelings, but the best feeling of all will be when you finally hold your baby in your arms. When your baby is born you might want to indulge in this precious moment with your partner, but soon enough you will want the world to know what a beautiful tiny human being you have delivered to this world. You might have seen some cute baby announcements from friends or online. A great way to announce your baby’s birth is with a cute photo. Some of our mums used a baby birth milestone card to write down some details about their little cherub and make a cute picture to share with the world.

Our mums bought their milestone cards online or found something they could print themselves. It is such a cute way to show your baby to the world and answer a few questions that your family and friends will have about your newborn. When you dress your baby in a cute outfit too it might become one of the best first pictures you have of your baby. What a wonderful keepsake for years to come!
