I'm relatively new to practicing Tarot divination, but I came up with these spreads based on wanting to do a reading for a friend of mine who gave birth October 10, 2013. I'm totally open to comments and questions if anyone has them. I'm also looking for guinea pigs to test these spreads more.
Newborn child spreads

A) Represents mother or father
B) Represents child
1) Is he/she ready to be a parent?
2) Will he/she be a good parent?
3) What will the baby be like as a child?
4) What will the baby be like as an adult?
5) What will his/her job/career be?
6) Will he/she have siblings?
7) What will his/her relationship with his/her mother be like?
8) What will his/her relationship with his/ her father be like?
Spread 2: Both parents together
A) Represents mother
B) Represents child
C) Represents father
1) Is she ready to be a mother?
2) Will she be a good mother?
3) What will the baby be like as a child?
4) What will the baby be like as an adult?
5) What will his/her job/career be?
6) Will he/she have siblings?
7) What will his/her relationship with his/her mother be like?

9) Is he ready to be a father?
10) Will he be a good father?
Spread 3: Two same sex parents
A) Represents parent 1
B) Represents child
C) Represents parent 2
1) Is he/she ready to be a parent?
2) Will he/she be a good parent?
3) What will the baby be like as a child?
4) What will the baby be like as an adult?
5) What will his/her job/career be?
6) Will he/she have siblings?
7) What will his/her relationship with parent 1 be like?
8) What will his/her relationship with Represents parent 2 be like?
9) Is he/she ready to be a parent?
10) Will he/she be a good parent?
Some notes on these spreads:
*This was written for a friend who just had her first child. The question of siblings isn't necessary if this isn't the couple's first child, but it can be modified to ask if the child will have future siblings.
*The cards used to represent the parent(s) or child can be one of the Major Arcana that represent one of the zodiac signs, especially if you don't know the parent(s) well.
*The card that represents siblings can go near either parent's side of the spread.
*Another card representing siblings can be added into the single parent spread to see if the child will have future half siblings from the absent parent. It can be added to the right side of the spread.
*The single parent spread was written first since it was made specific to my friend's situation.
