Her shower is in January and I want to do something special/cute. I am open for any ideas.

Carriage or cradle. She won't expect it and it will really help out.

Filled with all the essentials that I needed for my baby. It was really cute, and now I use the basket for her books!

Ive seen this at a shower and it was a big hit.

We hung ours on the wall next the crib.Put together a scrapbook page that your sister can 'stamp' her newborn's prints on. I made one that has all my son's birth info &"My 1st Prints" across the top. They make scrapbook frames as well & it'll look great on the nursery wall.Those are just some ideas, but put a lot of thought into anything that you can personalize. Anything made by hand is so much more special than bought straight from the store. Back to top It's a boy! Yahoo User Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2007 11:18 am    Post subject: At my baby shower I got tons and tons of clothes and blankets. What I needed was bath stuff, lotions, more diapers (got some but not a bunch), diaper cream, wipes, thermometer, first aid kit, get the essentials cause everyone will be buying clothes (cause they are so cute). Everyone always goes to baby showers thinking "Oh someone else will buy them the essentials, I'll get them something cute instead." So buy her the essentials first, she can never have too much of it. Then after the shower take her shopping for something else she needs but didn't get.

I registered for what I wanted-- don't choose other things! And don't get clothes. Everyone gets clothes (except for socks, babies always need socks). A gift card to a store that sells diapers and formula would be a great idea, or a gift basket of medicine cabinet stuff that nobody thinks to buy (saline nose drops, infant tylenol, diaper rash cream, gas relief drops, some different pacifiers, etc). It sucks to have to run to the store with a screaming sick kid. Or, better yet, a cool-air vaporizer/humidifier. Every kid uses one of those when they're sick, and I've never seen one as a gift! Oh, my mom did the best gift-- she made all my son's crib sheets. It cost her about $2 a sheet, they were a breeze to make, and they're tons softer and cuter than what you would buy at the store. Plus you're CONSTANTLY changing sheets as baby spits up on them, you can never have too many!

Blanket, burt cloths, onesis, diapers, socks, booties, body wash, lotion, hats, glove... you can just get everything in neutral colors and it's actually something that every mom needs Back to top Centaur Yahoo User Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2007 12:23 pm    Post subject: Personalized gifts are always special. How about a personalized sign for the nursery that accents the décor? They have cute ones here: http://www.mysweetandsour.com/ The artist is a mom.

They make the cutest bracelets just for kids & babies. Back to top
