“Can’t wait to meet baby”
A guess, a wish, a gift — try the flow yourself. No signup needed.
First StepA little miracle is on the way! Here's how it works: pick the date you think baby will arrive, write a wish, and send a gift (any amount, $20 and up). The closest guess wins bragging rights. All gifts go straight to the parents.
Sending so much love from across the ocean! Wishing you an easy delivery and lots of joy in the wait. I’m so glad I got to be part of this baby shower — what a beautiful idea. Counting down with you.

Wishes from friends appear here
What becomes possible when family can join from anywhere.
Loved ones far away still show up — not just with an emoji.
A due-date guess becomes real support for your baby.
Friends, grandparents, coworkers — one link is enough.
Wishes stay forever. Another onesie doesn't have to.
Every guess includes a contribution — from $20 up. Friends choose an amount that feels right for them. No pressure, no awkward cash asks.
Only you. Guests don't see what others guessed or gave. Your dashboard keeps every message private and safe.
Bragging rights — and a moment you'll all remember. When baby arrives, guests get the result. No cash prize, just pure fun.
Your calendar stays. Every wish, guess, and name is saved — open it on the first birthday, or any day you need a smile.
When my closest friend was pregnant, I was in another country and couldn't celebrate with her.
Sending a random gift didn't feel right.
So I thought — there should be a simple way for friends to join, celebrate, and support from anywhere.
That's how First Step started.
JuliaFounder of First Step
We live abroad and can't always be there in person. First Step helped our extended family in the US contribute to our baby's future from afar.
It wasn't about the money, but the messages and intentions behind it. We received $350, but more importantly, a lasting memory from each loved one.
Instead of baby clothes we didn't need, our community gifted us over $1,200. First Step made it feel meaningful and easy.
Discover the joy and excitement of welcoming a new life into the world.
