What Do You Give at a Baby Shower? 15 Smart Gift Ideas

Gift Ideas for the Baby

• Cozy baby clothes
  Bodysuits, pajamas, and tiny socks in soft fabrics are always appreciated – especially in slightly larger sizes for later use.
• Blanket or lovey
  A soft blanket or personalized lovey can become a cherished favorite.
• Baby care kit
  A bundle with gentle baby oil, shampoo, and balm – ideally fragrance-free and organic.
• Pacifier and pacifier clip
  Cute silicone pacifiers with a matching, handy clip.
• Baby toys
  Easy-to-grab toys that rattle or crinkle are perfect for curious little hands.
• Personalized name art or poster
  A lovely nursery decor item with the baby’s name, birth date, or zodiac sign.
• My First Book
  A board book or storybook to start the baby’s personal library.

Gift Ideas for the Mom-to-Be

• Luxury skincare for pregnancy
  A soothing stretch mark oil, a hydrating face mask, or relaxing bath salts.
• Pregnancy or nursing pillow
  Comfortable during pregnancy and super handy for breastfeeding later.
• Comfy clothes
  A nursing top, soft robe, or cozy maternity leggings are always a hit.
• Massage or spa gift card
  A moment of peace and self-care before or after the baby arrives.
• Personalized jewelry
  Like a necklace with the baby’s initials or a meaningful message.

Gifts for the Whole Family

• Photo book or baby memory book
  A way to document first steps, teeth, and beloved stuffed animals.
• Baby essentials
  Think diapers, wipes, or baby food – practical gifts that’ll definitely be used.
• Homemade freezer meals
  Not the most glamorous gift, but a total lifesaver once the baby is here.
