Baby Shower gifts

A friend of mine is having a baby and I am soo excited!
Her baby shower is coming up and its a giraffe them.
I love giraffe print so this should be fun.
I wanna make baby a no sew blanket with giraffe print.

I was also kind of thinking of doing a a gift basket and putting different things in there. I don't have a newb anymore so I'm not really sure what to put. I wanna do a few things for mom too and not just baby.

Sooo. Give me ideas!

It's the only soother my LO takes and I love it.

Cotton breast pads! That's all I could think of when I thought about what I loved for myself pp.

Baby wash
Baby lotion
Baby shampoo
Diaper Rash Cream
Thermometer
Nail clippers
Brush/comb
Bottle brush if she's going to bottle feed.

DS loves his wubbanubs too!

you could always decorate a travel wipes case... here's the one I did for my son/diaper bag:

or a diaper holder... also the one I made for my son/diaper bag:

you could also make a few burp cloths (you can never have too many burp cloths)

those are typically the gifts I've been giving/making for my friends' baby showers and/or diaper cakes those r pretty fun too  

Now that you mentioned it I kinda wanna make her a diaper cake!



Thanks everyone those are great ideas!

same!!!! all the other ones I've tried make my nipples sore when I put my boobs back in my bra after nursing (sry if that's tmi)

J& j make reusable breast pads? I've tried All the disposables and they suck compared to cotton reusables. Udder covers has a free offer on a pack of 20 right now. Just pay shipping. You need a code but they are easy to find.

That's what I did for my SIL. I got the baby a gift, of course, but I also made her a care package with stuff that she would be needing (breast pads, milk storage bags, chapstick, lotion, etc).

Oh, you're talking about linen type cotton. I thought you meant like without the plastic lining.
