Baby Gifts the New Mom will Remember

I have found that experienced moms tend to know what gift to give when attending a baby shower. Whether it’s a gift they appreciated or treasured from one of their baby showers or something they wished they had received when they had a newborn.

Every first time mom will appreciate baby necessities:

  • Baby Bathtub: filled with all the essentials (soap, lotion, towel, wash cloth and bath toy).
  • Emergency Diaper Bag: a bag the new mom can leave in her car. Fill it with an assortment of items that will be readily available in case she forgets something at home (diapers of varies sizes, cream, bib, lotion, pacifier etc.)
  • Meal Time: an assortment of bowls, spoons, bibs, sippy cups and/or bottles. This makes a nice addition to the purchase of a larger gift such as a highchair or boaster seat.

Whether the gift you are purchasing is for a first time mom or a mom awaiting the arrival of her third born, sentimental keepsakes will always be treasured and an assured hit at a baby shower.

  • Hand made quilts, knitted baby blankets
  • Baptism gown passed down from genterations
  • A special keepsake box to hold mementos such as the child's first pacifier, hospital hat, or lock of hair
  • Baby Book, or baby's first year journal

Another popular gift option is going in with one or two other shower guests to purchase a big-ticket item. Babies are expensive, and helping the expectant parents purchase a large item would be appreciated. Look into buying a crib, change table, stroller or car seat. Make sure you check to see which store(s) the parents-to-be have registered at to find out brand names and styles of items they are looking for.
