Sorry to crash...Need some help for a baby gift..
Can you tell me a few things that you always need as a mommy for your newborn.
I am putting together a baby gift for someone.
Thanks Ladies!

Re: Sorry to crash...Need some help for a baby gift..
Are you talking about little items to put in a gift basket? (Like Desitin, Tearless Shampoo, Wipes, Diapers) Things for mommy (Lansinoh Lanolin and Lansinoh Disposable Breast Pads if she'll be nursing) or more traditional gift items (burp clothes, onesies for less expensive)
Or did you want a big gift:
Bouncy Chair
Swing
Have you checked if she has a registry? You can look online at Babies R Us or Buy Buy Baby.

Kathleen, a LIFE SAVER for me was the Miracle Blanket. You swaddle them in it & it allows them to sleep for hours & hours b/c they feel secure & snug & can't get out of it. Miracle blanket
Also Gracelyn LOVES her FP Aquarium for the crib, she watches & watches the fish swimming around & for a while would cry anytime the music stopped.
Little stuff: outlet covers (for later), bottle brush to clean; pacifiers, WIPES--we go through a ton, socks

I would say diapers, wipes, onesies, socks and pjs. I received boxes of diapers and wipes from friends and they were lifesavers since you go through them sooooooo fast.

Re: Sorry to crash...Need some help for a baby gift..
I agree with the above posters..... diapers, wipes, balmex/desitin, vaseline, aquaphor, baby soap and lotion, extra bottles, bottle brushes, ... anything that gets used up is great. No one really buys you that stuff and you need that more than anything else!

I say get her the Miracle Blanket. Not all moms know about it (if they aren't on LIF) and it truly is a lifesaver the first few months!

Batteries! There is nothing worse than the swing dyeing just when you need it most and you have no spares!

Re: Sorry to crash...Need some help for a baby gift..
I would have loved if someone got me Thank You cards with my return address and maybe stamps already on them. Writing Thank Yous is so important - i plan to do that when my future sister-in-law gets pregnant.

This may sound silly but we didn't really get gift cards but they are great! I would recommend them.
