What to write if you want to keep it very simple
If you’re not sure how personal to get, a short congratulation is perfectly fine. These work well when you sign a group card or when you don’t know the coworker very well.

What to write if you want to sound more thoughtful
A more thoughtful card message usually mentions the milestone, the baby, and a wish for the parent’s well-being. That keeps the note personal without sounding overly intimate or awkward at work.
- Congratulations on your baby shower. I hope you feel surrounded by love and support as you get ready for this beautiful new chapter.
- Wishing you calm days, plenty of rest, and so much joy as you prepare to welcome your baby.
- May this exciting season bring you comfort, happy anticipation, and many special memories with the people you love.
- It’s wonderful to see you celebrated at such a happy time. Wishing you health, happiness, and an easy transition into parenthood.
- Congratulations on this meaningful milestone. I hope the months ahead are filled with excitement and peace.
What to avoid writing in a coworker’s baby shower card
- Anything too personal about pregnancy, body changes, or parenting choices.
- Jokes about sleepless nights, labor, or how life is “over” now.
- Comments that assume details about the baby, family structure, or fertility journey.
- Overly casual lines that might feel awkward in a workplace setting.
- Advice unless the coworker has specifically asked for it.
