Baby #2 gift question

I've been invited to a shower for baby number 2 - there was no shower for the first baby, who is now almost 4 and
I don't believe the parents are finding out the sex of this baby.

I need ideas for a gift - the mom is not registering - I'm at a bit of a loss

thanks

how about a diaper genie?? diapers?? a bouncer seat?? or a couple of nice outfits would be cute. also a boppy pillow always comes in handy.

my vote would be for diapers/wipes/batteries

you could also do nursery linens....crib sheets in neutral colors unless they have already painted and you could go with a matching color. Waterproof Mattress protecters are ALWAYS good, waterproof lap pads (they come in various sizes).

Maybe a GC for portraits for the family when the baby arrives with a photo album?

I would totally go with something they are going to NEED. Basic clothing items...white onesies, neutral sleep n plays, baby socks.

Pampers.com you can purchase gift certificates for pampers diapers

lullaby CD's, baby DVD's, a small collection of disney DVD's since they only come out every 10 years. We started buying ours when we were dating!!

BOOKS.....can't go wrong with books.

And a P.S. maybe a little something for the 4 year old--I'm sure they feel left out with the new baby getting all these gifts.

Onesies and gowns get very dirty so alot of people don't keep these from the first child they buy knew.

I know with my bouncey seats they were used so much that I might get new, also 4 years ago they didn't have the bounceys they have now, that have lights and do stuff.

I was thinking a nice balnket would be used for years to come, so that it would be this abbies and not a hand me down, kwim.

That is why a GC might be the best thing though, since she probably has a bunch fo stuff and if she has a different sex baby she will need all new clothes.
