New baby gifts
*mini-vent first woozers how easy was it for me to drop a hundred dollars at Babies R Us when I have 2 baby showers to buy for!! And I have determined when I am preggo, I will determine sex of baby b/c its hard to find neutral shlt that isn't yellow ducks!!! BOOOO I want to spoil my future niece/nephew but that's hard to do cheaply if you can't plan for what they are having!!
2 questions ladies from this no child lady who has 3 babies being born by friends/family in next 2 months!!
What was your absolute favorite item you got for a baby(especially a 2nd baby)?
And when you go to a baby shower, is there a go to gift you know bring because it helped you so much for a first baby that they might not register for?
TIA!!!
Re: New baby gifts
I love our Aden and Anias swaddle blankets, they aren't cheap ($40 for 4) but they hold up really well and are worth it. The top things I use are our bouncer, sleep gowns, my hands free pumping bras, and the Boppy.
When I'm getting shower gifts I try and do a basket based off of what mom registered for. Ie: buying the bathtub she wanted and filing it with towels, bath products, etc... I like to throw in something for mom, be it tea, "new mom" body products, or her favorite treat. I feel like its more personal and I'm not a big fan of buying clothing until the kiddo has arrived.
I got a diaper bag (that I use all the time), filled with diapering accessories (wipes, cream, etc), that was helpful, and memorable.
