Examples of what to write in a baby shower book? A baby shower book is a great way to capture all of the memories from the day. Some guests might choose to write messages or well wishes, while others may opt to draw or paint pictures.
It’s a fun way for parents-to-be to look back on their special day and see how loved their little one was by friends and family.
Here are some ideas of what you could write in a baby shower book:
-“Welcome to the world! We’re so excited to meet you.”
-“We can’t wait to spoil you rotten!”
-“You’re going to be such a wonderful addition to our family.”
-“Congratulations on this new chapter in your lives!”
-“Babies are such a great way to bring people together.”
-“You’re going to be the best parents in the world!”
How do you make a baby scrapbook?
What should you do? What do you need to make your homemade baby scrapbook? How can you create a beautiful and memorable scrapbook that will last for years to come? Read on to find out…
The first step in making your baby scrapbook is deciding what kind of memories you want to include. Will it be all photos, or will there be other memorabilia such as ribbons, certificates, birth announcements etc.?
Next, decide whether the book will be completed before or after the child’s birth (if they are older than two months old). This decision may affect how much time and effort goes into creating each page.
You also need to think about who else might contribute their photographs or artwork – will it be a family affair? Do you want to share your baby’s first year with friends and relatives?
Once you have decided on the overall theme, start collecting materials. Arrange these into categories so that there is space between them for writing and pictures.
You will need some supplies like cardstock or poster board for making collages; paints; stickers; printed paper (patterned/plain); adhesive (glue stick works well); scissors; ruler/measuring tape and coloured pens if desired.
If possible get an old-fashioned scrapbooking kit from a store near where you live – they will often come with all of this already included!
Choose what type of background design each page should have by looking through your photos and other memorabilia. If you have a favourite picture of your baby, use it as the background for their scrapbook page. This will add a personal touch to the book.
Once you have determined the design, cut out the desired shape using scissors or an electronic cutting machine (if you own one). If working with photos, be sure to print them in black and white or sepia tones – this gives a timeless feel to the finished product.
Now it’s time to start creating your pages! Begin by glueing down larger items first like photographs, certificates and artwork. Make sure everything is straight before moving on to the next step. Add smaller elements around these larger pieces; stickers, textured paper, borders etc.

What should I write on a baby album?
The next step is about the content of a baby album book. What should you write in the first pages when you open it? These are very important because they will be the ones that, in general, tell your family and friends what’s going on with your life during this stage. In these pages, we recommend writing:
Some sentences describing how motherhood has been so far (have you enjoyed it? How have they treated you at home? Have there been any problems?).
A photo section where new mommy shows off her belly while she was pregnant A description of pregnancy and childbirth.
Tell us if everything went well or not in those moments The date, time and place of birth Another photoset showing your baby right after birth, as well as the first few weeks A list of relatives and friends who have met your little one so far
The album is not only for close family members though. It can also be a great way to keep track of doctor’s appointments, growth spurts, funny things your baby has done and more. Include photos and short notes about each day during the first year!
As they get older, you can add in drawings or school projects they’ve made. This will make it a cherished item that you can look back on with fond memories.
So start writing now and fill up those pages with all the amazing moments you are experiencing as a new mom! Congratulations!
What is typically in a baby book?
Baby books are typically divided into three main sections: the first section is all about baby’s life, the second section is all about mommy and daddy’s lives when they were babies, and the third section is for milestones or memorable events that happen to this little one during his/her childhood. The following are some of my favorite pages from our baby book:
Family Tree- This page helps your child see where he/she came from. It includes a spot for them to write their name and birthday, as well as a family tree with spots for you (mom), dad, grandparents on both sides (and great grandparents if there’s room!), brothers and sisters. It also has a place for them to draw a picture of their home.
Baby’s First Photo- This page is for your child’s first photo, which will usually be the one taken at the hospital. We used our favorite from all three boys!
Baby Shower Guests & Gifts Received- This page has spots for you to list guests who attended your baby shower and gifts that were received during this time (you can always add more pages if necessary!).
It also includes a spot where you can attach an ultrasound image or other keepsake as well as write down how many people guessed correctly whether it was a boy or girl! I love seeing my husband’s handwriting on these pages because he wrote everyone down while we opened presents so I could keep track.
First Steps- This is a great page to capture your child’s first steps! We included the date, time, and location of each step as well as who was there to witness it.
Favorite Foods- This page has spots for you to list your child’s favorite foods at different stages in their life. It also includes a spot for them to draw a picture of their favorite food. Luke loved macaroni and cheese (and still does!) so we have that listed multiple times!
Many other pages can be included in a baby book, such as hospital records, doctor visits, immunization records, etc., but these are some of my favourites! What pages would you include in your baby book?
