Baby Shower Gifts
Baby Gift Baskets
Baby Gifts Baskets are always popular for bringing to baby showers. They are always welcome gifts, because there is something for everyone. Most gift baskets contain a small supply of baby essentials, such as a receiving blanket, a Teddy Bear or stuffed animal, a rattle or infant toy, and some decorative items such as flowers, ribbons and of course, a basket.
Prices for baby gift baskets range from $20 to over $200. Since there are so many to choose from, we suggest trying to narrow down by price, and then by whether the mother is expecting a baby boy or baby girl.
Here are some recommended places to find gift baskets.

A Stylish Diaper Bag
A stylish diaper bag that Mom or Dad can carry anywhere is a great gift. A fashionable bag can be practical and doesn't have to shout "Nursery Room".
These days there are diaper bags designed by Tommy Hilfiger, diaper backpacks and diaper bags for men. Of course you could also convert your own - say a Donna Karan travel bag into a diaper tote.

Pillows
When you have a newborn, you need more pillows. Feedings, naps, and holding the baby are made easier when comfy pillows are around. The Boppy is a design specifically for feeding and holding an infant. We'd also recommend upgrading the regular bed pillows that the adults use. Parents can easily get sore necks and backs from holding babies, and a orthopaedic pillow, like a tempur-pedic can really help. It's a gift that parents will appreciate as they drift off to sleep.
