Pregnancy Puns That Bump Up the Fun

The guest of honor is growing a human, her feet hurt, and she hasn’t seen her toes since 2025. She deserves a laugh. If she doesn’t laugh, blame the hormones. If she does laugh, make sure she doesn’t pee a little. (See our Funny Jokes for Nurses if things get medical).

Parenting Jokes About the Lack of Sleep

The shower is the last party before the parents enter the zombie phase. It is funny because it is true. They will need a lot of caffeine soon (check out our Morning Coffee Puns for survival tips), but for now, let’s joke about their impending doom.

Boy oh boy!
Let’s hear it for the girls.
What’s the scoop?
I pink it’s a girl.

Don’t Cry, Here Are Answers

What do you write in a baby shower card if you aren’t sentimental?

“You made a tiny human. Good job. Here is a gift card.” Simple, effective, and honest.

Are baby shower puns appropriate for a boss?

Only if you want to be promoted to “Customer” soon. Stick to “Congratulations” unless your boss is Michael Scott.

How many puns is too many for a speech?

One is too many. But if you are committed, aim for three. Any more and they might throw the diaper genie at you.

Can I use these jokes for a second baby?

Yes, but the parents will be too tired to laugh. They know the truth now.
