5 Baby Shower Must Have Gifts

With the pregnancy bug constantly in the air, there is a very good chance that you will know someone who is already pregnant or is at least planning a baby. Pregnant women mean shopping, but finding that perfect gift can be a real headache. Here are the best five gifts you can get any expecting mother and guarantee that she will love and appreciate them. The baby shower gifts I list can be used for any occasion but will be a particular hit for a new mom.

1. Diapers, diapers and more diapers. That is quite a bland gift but a very much needed gift. I don’t any mom who will complain about having too many diapers with a newborn at home. To make diapers snazzy you have to dress it up a bit. You can find diaper cakes in lots of gift sites. Some come with as many as 150 diapers, plus booties, bibs and tons of other essentials for baby, but all in the shape of an all so cute cake.

2. Layettes, blankets, socks and burp cloths. Chances are they are going to get tons of these. However, these gifts tend to come in newborn or 3 months sizes which after a few weeks probably won’t serve its purpose anymore. Making this a great gift is if you buy them in larger sizes. After a few months, mom still has brand new gifts for the baby to enjoy.

3. Pamper products and care for that new Mom. So often the baby shower becomes all about the new baby and Mom gets overlooked. During this new period in her life she will definitely not look after herself ahead of the baby, so get her a gift that allows her to take a much deserved break.

4. A Maclaren lightweight Stroller! I mention the Maclaren brand specifically because they are the best of the best when it comes to lightweight strollers, but lets look at why the stroller is on this list in the first place. As a parent I can tell you that all the big prams with all their gimmicks are great for a while, but soon you learn that you need the ease and convenience of a lightweight stroller.

5. Gift certificates. Seems like the ‘I can’t think of anything’ gift but realistically this is one of the best gifts you can get. Quite often the new family does not know what they will actually need until of course … they need it, so giving them the chance to choose their own gifts is something that they will really value and cherish when they do go out and spend it.

Tip: Clothing seems cute and adorable in the shops, but try and refrain from purchasing clothes as presents. Quite often the parents will be given a lot from friends and family, and will also want to go out and buy their own ‘adorable outfits
