How long do you have to send out thank-you notes for gifts given after your baby is born?

Raiden

Usually right before you have the baby. Don’t procrastinate too long about it!

Cheyenne

the sooner the better, within one week!

Ahmad

You should send out a note as soon as you get a gift. It is something we love to put off then get embarassed about the time and don’t send anything.

Milton

you dont do it after baby is born. you do it after baby shower. unless your sending a thank you note to the father

Valeria

I would say 2 weeks at the most.

Andy

Well, lets see, My son is almost 11 years old and I still have the box of thank you notes in my closet… lol maybe I will use them for the next one.

Rudy

Withen a week, any longer and people will forget they even sent you a gift.

Lorenzo

The first 2 weeks..if you send them late just write..sorry there late havnt had much time to do nytinh since (babies name ) was born..

Braylon

I would say within a week. The sooner you send them, the more thoughtful it seems to the gift giver. If you make it a priority, they feel like they are a priority. Get some help if you need to just to get them out in the mail.

Cadence

I think people will be understanding if you take a little longer. but I must admit I got half mine done right before the baby was born, and the other half was so much harder. Finding time to write them with the new baby seemed impossible. Good luck and congrats on the new baby.

Weston

I hope a while. I took 6 months to get mine out to thank people for the gifts before the baby was born. Who knows how much longer for those given to me after.

Owen

I tried to get all my thank you’s out before maternity leave was over. Gifts that come in after that, try for a week.

I was always taught that a Thank You note of any kind is required no more than 48 hours after receiving the gift. But I find today you are fortunate to even receive a thank you note at all. I just yesterday received a thank you note from my grandchildren for their Christmas Gifts. So I guess anymore anything goes — but I stick with the 48 hour rule as it was drilled into me as a young person. I always made certain my children wrote their thank you notes within 48 hours too.

I was writing mine in the hospital. There really is no excuse for laziness. You can make the time 2 weeks or more is totally unacceptable.

According to this website on ettiquette thank you should be addressed within 72 hours .

Judah

I would do it within one month of receiving the gift.

Jada

The time is one month for the gifts. After the baby is born usually you are doing the anouncements so it took me about a month to print all the pictures out. I also put the thank-yous in there envelopes.

Jaquan

For gifts given AFTER your baby is born.. send a thank you within 2 weeks of receiving the gift. Anything longer gets to be a little too much time in passing. The sooner you do it the better. I was always taught to send a thank you note right away.

Araceli

ooooooooooh lala i don’t know and i don’t care

You are tired, so it is understandable if it take you a while, but it has been four weeks since my sister’s baby shower, and people are PISSED that we haven’t gotten thank you cards. I would say within 1-2 weeks, but if they know you are thankful and very tired, they should be a little understanding if you take a while.
