Best Wishes For Labor and Delivery

As we all know, labor and delivery can be a very exciting but also a nerve-wracking experience.

So if you have a friend or loved one who is about to give birth, why not send them some wishes for a safe and healthy delivery?

You could even put together a little care package with things like snacks, drinks, and magazines to help keep them occupied during the wait.

Whatever you do, just be sure to let the new mommy know that you’re thinking of her. 

The Write Greeting has got you covered! Simply choose from one of our genuine wishes for safe delivery and birth, or create your own personalized message, then send your greeting via email, text message, or best of all, a hand written note or card.

It doesn’t matter if you’re far away from the person who is about give birth, it’s important that you send something to show you are there for her.
