Pregnancy Puns to Bump Up Your Baby Shower Speech
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, and just hope nobody needs actual medical attention before dessert.
Newborn Jokes to Steal for the Onesie Card
They are small, they smell like milk, and they have no job.

Sleep-Deprived Parent Jokes for the 3 AM Feeding Shift

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.
Who traditionally pays for a baby shower?
Whoever throws the party covers the cost, usually a close friend or family member volunteering as tribute. The gifts are the guests’ problem. The venue, cake, and inevitable Pinterest-fail decorations are the host’s.
What if the mom-to-be says she hates puns?
Smile, nod, and skip straight to the food and games. Nobody has ever actually walked out of a baby shower over a bad pun. Worst case, she just glares at you over the deviled eggs.
