Funny Baby Milestone Discs: Alternative & Sweary Baby Photo Props
Babies are adorable.
Parenthood is beautiful.
And every single moment is magical.
Well... most of the time.
Between sleepless nights, spectacular nappies, cold cups of coffee and trying to remember what day it is, becoming a parent also provides plenty of moments that don't quite belong on the traditional picture-perfect milestone cards.
That's where Funny Baby Milestone Discs come in.
Designed for parents who prefer their baby memories with a little more humour, funny and sweary milestone discs provide an alternative to the traditional “One Month Old” and “My First Smile” photographs.
At Spotted Lizard Prints in Stafford, Staffordshire, our alternative baby milestone discs are hand-printed to order and designed as novelty photo props for parents who aren't afraid to laugh at the less glamorous side of life with a baby.
What Are Funny Baby Milestone Discs?
Traditional baby milestone discs usually celebrate those familiar firsts.
First smile.
First tooth.
First steps.
Funny and Sweary Baby Milestone Discs take a slightly different approach.
They're novelty photo props featuring cheeky, humorous or more adult wording that can be placed alongside baby when taking photographs.
Instead of pretending every day of parenthood belongs in a beautifully filtered social media post, they give parents another way to document some of the chaos.
Because sometimes the photograph that makes you laugh is the one you want to remember.
Sweary Baby Milestone Discs
Some parents love sentimental.
Others prefer sarcasm.
If the new parents in your life are firmly in the second category, Sweary Baby Milestone Discs can make a particularly appropriate gift.
They're not designed to replace the traditional baby milestones.
You can have both.
Take the beautiful monthly milestone photograph for the grandparents.
Then get the sweary disc out for the group chat.
Everybody wins.
An Alternative to Traditional Baby Milestone Cards
There's absolutely nothing wrong with traditional milestone cards and discs.
They're popular for a reason.
But not every family has the same personality.
Alternative Baby Milestone Discs give parents another option when they want photographs that feel a little less traditional.
You can mix the sentimental pictures with the funny ones and end up with a collection of photographs that captures different sides of baby's first months.
And when baby eventually grows up, there may be a few photographs that require some explaining!
Funny Baby Shower Gifts
Baby showers can involve a lot of very similar presents.
Baby clothes.
Blankets.
Toys.
More baby clothes.
If you're looking for a Funny Baby Shower Gift that stands out from the usual presents, novelty milestone discs provide something completely different.
They're particularly suited to friends or family members whose sense of humour you know well.
If you've spent years exchanging sarcastic messages and inappropriate birthday cards, you'll probably know whether sweary baby milestone discs are going to get the right reaction.
If you're buying for someone you don't know particularly well, a less sweary option might be the safer choice!
A Funny Gift for New Parents
New baby gifts don't always have to be serious or sentimental.
Sometimes you simply want to make Mum and Dad laugh.
A set of Funny Baby Milestone Discs can be given when visiting the new baby, added to a baby shower hamper or combined with another personalised baby gift.
They're also a great option when the parents already have the practical essentials and you want to buy something more unusual.
After all, there's only so many newborn sleepsuits one tiny human can wear.
Novelty Baby Photo Props
Funny milestone discs are primarily designed as baby photo props.
Choose the appropriate disc, position it safely next to baby and take your photograph.
The source guidance makes an important distinction here: milestone discs should be treated as photo props rather than toys.
Always supervise baby while taking photographs, place the disc next to rather than on baby, and don't allow it to be used as a toy or teething item.
Then take your picture and add it to the growing collection of memories from baby's first year.
Baby Photos with Personality
One of the fun things about milestone photographs is watching just how quickly everything changes.
The tiny newborn becomes a three-month-old.
Then six months.
Then suddenly you're planning a first birthday.
Using different props along the way can help give those photographs a little context and personality.
Traditional milestone photographs can document baby's age and developmental firsts, while funny alternatives can capture some of the lighter moments around family life.
They don't all need to be shared online either.
Create your own album, save them privately or send them to the family group chat.

Humour is personal.

If not, choose something a little less outrageous.
The best funny gift is the one that matches the recipient's sense of humour.
Parenthood Isn’t Always Picture Perfect
Baby photographs don't all need to be beautifully posed, perfectly coordinated and social-media ready.
Sometimes the funny ones are worth taking too.
Funny and Sweary Baby Milestone Discs offer parents an alternative way to document those early months, combining baby photography with a little humour and personality.
From Spotted Lizard Prints in Stafford, Staffordshire, our novelty milestone photo props are made for baby showers, new parents and families who don't take themselves too seriously.
Because babies are cute.
Parenthood is wonderful.
And sometimes it's an absolute sh*t show.
