I give everyone a battery charger and rechargeable batteries. My daughter is almost 4, and we learned very early on that we would be using lots of batteries. The rechargeable ones are great for items that get used on a daily basis. I buy them from Amazon at a great price.

When my brother and sister-in-law were expecting their baby last year, I decided to do a diaper cake for the shower gift…but not just any diaper cake! Acknowledging my brother’s love of his motorcycle, I made a motorcycle diaper “cake.” And since my sister-in-law and I share an obsession with turtles, I found the Perfect turtle to ride the motorcycle into the event! I have some adorable pictures of it but not sure how to share them!

My mother tells me my gifts are always the best. My family lives in a different state them I do so I’m not always able to make the shower so I send my basket. I always find a gorgeous basket (hobby lobby mostly) in what ever color or theme the expectant mommy is using. I then go shopping for everything baby will need, diapers, onesies, shampoo, bath soap, nail clipper set, bulb, brush and comb etc. You will have everything baby needs and a bottle of nice bubbles or calgon, a pretty wine glass and a nice wine for mommy.

I usually do a mini first aid type kit for baby. It may not to be the cutest gift, but you can get some cute little bath products to go with it, and a cute, useful tote. It goes over well, and is something they will need. I love all of the ideas on here!

We got a wipe warmer and a bottle warmer for our baby shower. Our daughter would scream whenever a cold wipe touched her little bum, but if it was put in the warmer it was soothing rather than startling, which can help immensely during night changes and you don’t want it them to be fully awake.
The bottle warmer is something you would probably have to ask around about. Not everyone needs one. I couldn’t breastfeed, so she needed to be bottle-fed and you can’t give babies cold breastmilk or formula. They heat up much quicker than a stove and they have a timer on them ?

My “go to” baby shower gift since I had my own son 15 years ago has been, wait for it……………………..batteries! I buy a nice storage bin that can be used for so many things later but then fill it with all sizes of batteries. So many, many things that the baby gets requires batteries these days. And they are so costly. You will be shocked how quickly you can amass $50-$100 in batteries. Every new mom I have gifted this to has been thrilled. And I promise nobody else will think of it.

One of the most requested things friends of new little ones told me they wanted is: food! Great snacks that can be eaten one handed or hovering over the sink in between breastfeeding sessions. That plus some personal care items (think Padsicle supplies & nipple cream) make their lives a little easier after delivery. Love hearing from them “Your gift was the most THOUGHTFUL gift I ever received.”
