Mommies, what is the best baby gift you received??

September 24, 2011 | In: New Born & Baby Gifts

We need to get a groovy gift for a baby girl. I was thinking about the swaddle me but just wanted a few other hip ideas.
I meant to say both parents are lawyers so I know they have all the practical items they need. Their registry is complete too.

The best gifts I recieved were probably a huge box of huggies and wipes, lol. I also recieved a very beautiful quilt with my sons name and birthdate on it. I loved my boppy, it is a breastfeeding mom’s must have. My aunt got me tons of pretty baby picture frames and photo albums that I fell in love with. New mom’s love pictures, so that was an awesome gift. I think when I was a new parent I loved anything that was personalized with my son’s name on it. It’s just so exciting having a new little person, I love seeing and hearing his name. So personalized gifts are great. Hope I could be of some help.

I don’t think the swaddle me is “hip”, sorry- I’d go with a gift card. Then the mom can get what they need or what they want.

Honestly, I think the best gifts are ones that are very practical. For example diapers, wipes, clothing staples etc… I had family who brought over a few meals that could be frozen and then baked for later on. Before having had children though, I wanted all those cutesy things, but after being a mom I realized how much of that stuff hardly got any use and how much I appreciated the “boring” stuff. Dont know if that helps but that’s my 2 cents! :)

My absolutly fav gift was a nappy ( diaper) cake. It looked like a cake but was made from diapers (nappies) and had an outfit, dummy (pacifier), mittens and all sorts of knick nacks in it. It was great. It had everything but I loved how it looked like a cake.

The best gift I ever gave was a booklet I made up for a friend of mine that was having her first child and she didn’t have a clue on what to expect…So I asked all my friends, relatives, and even posted a question on here, and called the book
“What I wish I had known before I had my first baby”
She has found it very helpful
The best gift that I got was gift cards to places like Walmart and Sears…That way I could wait until after I had the baby and use it when I realized that I was missing something.

Diapers, Wipes, a Bath time bundle (something with soap, shampoo, wash clothes…), baby shoes, a swing, a bouncer, photo albums. If the mother doesn’t have a camera, you could buy her one, it doesn’t have to expensive just one so she could take pictures of her baby. I really enjoyed all of my gifts.

Oh wait I think my favorite gift was like a photo box. I know it sounds silly but it was. It’s pink with fairies on it. I put all of her shower cards, her hospital bracelets and other important things. I love it because i can stick it anywhere and it holds a lot! You could get her a photo box and put other little things inside it. Like the swaddler thing, or bath accesories or a gift card. Don’t worry or think too much mommies love all gifts!

I honestly think that the best gift I received at my daughter’s baby shower was a basket full of baby items: wipes, socks, lotion, shampoo, wash, wash clothes, towels, Desitin, Q-tips, Baby Tylenol, Baby Orajel… everything that a baby needs, but are usually overlooked!!

It’s called a Boppy you can go to http://www.boppy.com and check them out. I couldn’t imagine having a baby without one, makes life alot easier, especially around feeding time.

I definitely agree with Christine. Make up a couple of meals that can be frozen and give those. Also diapers and wipes but make sure the diapers are a size 1. Chances are they already have enough newborn size. Offer to do some housekeeping or babysitting of older children. I know I have really appreciated when people have done these things for me.

The best-ever present I got was when I had my son. I was given a big basket (like a picnic basket) full of baby stuff like powder, bib etc. And also in the basket was some other stuff for me like bubble bath etc. The basket was wrapped in celephone paper.

A diaper cake. Perfect for the baby who has everything else, because every baby needs more diapers. Check it out.
