What do people generally do for a baby's first birthday. A party? Nothing? Small supper at home? It's my first baby, I want to make a party with family but I feel like it might be awkward to do something with mine and my husband's families together. What did other ppl do? 2 separate parties or together.

My kids didn't have a 1st birthday party  .
Besides for my youngest, my siblings that live local wanted to come for a pizza dinner so that was a birthday party.

IMHO it's pointless to make a party for a one-year-old, who has no clue what's going on in any case. If you're looking for an excuse to make a party, find a different one. And if the two sets of g-rents don't get along, you will need to think about what happens at future bar mitzvahs, graduations and weddings, because you're not likely to make two separate celebrations for those.

Waste of time and money. But if you have extra of both yes it’s 1 party for everyone.
I wouldn’t make a party. But I would do a family
Bbq or something and everyone invited

Party is for the parents not the baby.
They want to get fun cake smash pictures, cute themes, invite over friends etc.
What's wrong with this "excuse" for a party?

I did 2 because they our parents don’t live close by and we just did very chill, just a little cake and presents. His birthday is erev pesach, so I invited my in-laws who live close by for that, and then shabbos chol hamoed by my parents we did another one.

The time is now for the 2 sets of grandparents to start getting along. Don't set the precedent of separate parties. Otherwise you'll be on here in 12 years crying about your son's bar mitzvah.
Make one small party and everyone shows up for their grandson who they love.

I made a small party for my baby.
My younger siblings came over, we had a cake smash (not her face, her hands) and then had some glow in the dark stuff because she LOVES colorful lights in the dark.
We also bought her some new bath toys.
She was very happy.
ETA I wouldn’t throw a full blown party for a 1 year old; I think that will be too overwhelming. Invite grandparents and maybe some of your younger siblings/nieces and nephews. Not more than that

If you want to do a cake smash definitely do not invite people over as your child will probably not cooperate when there are too many people.

My husbands family has become my family’s family and vice versa. They love to see each other at my simchas. Same with all my siblings and their in laws. It wouldn’t even cross my mind to make 2 separate parties.
