Here is a commonly asked question:
I am looking for some type of a ritual that would welcome a baby into our family and life on this earth. I have heard of such rituals but am very unfamiliar with any. I'm very alone over here in my paganism.
ok, I asked some other places and this is one reply I got.

I have a new baby and have been looking into this myself! I've found a pagan ritual called a Wiccaning that really seems to be quite fitting for me. It is basically invoking the God and Goddess to ask for protection for the infant until the child is old enough to choose their own religious path. Some good sites for info are
