First, before we start thinking about anniversary gifts for after your baby has been born...
A massive Congratulations!
Depending on how close it is to when your little one arrived
there have probably been some times of feeling overwhelmed by the love you have
for your newborn and the lack of sleep!
But now it is your Anniversary coming up and although it may feel not as important as your new baby, it is important to celebrate the two of you.
After all, your little one wouldn’t be here if you hadn’t met and fallen in love.
Unless you have the best babysitters in the world it is quite likely that this Anniversary will be spent at home.
And you really don’t want to be, nor do you have the time to be spending hours in the kitchen preparing the most romantic of feasts.
If you are the grandparent or friend of the Anniversary couple offering to babysit for them on their Anniversary would be the best gift ever.
You could print one of our Anniversary checks so you can add your baby sitting gift card to your card.

If you want a romantic meal with a newborn baby,
we recommend you order a takeout. Find some candles and have your Anniversary
meal and expect to be interrupted, if you manage to get through one course then
you are doing well!
v Movies are great if your baby is sleeping through the night but not so great if you are have to get up and check on them every few minutes. You may want to have them in their crib in teh same room as you for tonight’s celebrations so you can all be together.
v A long romantic walk with the pushchair can also be quality time together if your baby is anything like ours used to be – they were often asleep before we had got to the end of our road.
v The same goes for a little drive to one of your favourite places, time it for when they have their morning or afternoon nap and you will get a little time to yourselves.
v And that really goes for all of your Anniversary celebrations for after a baby is born, time them all between naps – or at least make sure you have some time to rest too.
v Of course this only works if you have one baby, older children don’t have so many naps so make the most of just having one!
When it comes to Anniversary Gifts ones that celebrate the two of you as a couple are the best.
