The festive season is a period filled with events such as weddings, parties, baby showers and many customary celebrations in some black communities.
This is also a time where some people will be getting their 13th cheque, affording them a little to spare if they will be attending events.
A baby shower might seem less complicated when it comes to getting the right gift, but confusion might arise when you reach the shops. In instances where the mom-to- be has a gift registry, you may have it very easy, depending on your budget of course.
If not, worry not as we have compiled a few baby shower gift ideas to try if you find yourself stuck with no clue what to get for your friend or loved one courtesy of information hub focusing on pregnancy, baby care and parenting tips, Pampers.
Breastfeeding supplies – If the mom-to-be has indicated that they will be breastfeeding, milk storage containers are a good buy as a baby shower gift. The above mentioned information hub also suggests adding a nursing cover or a nursing pillow. Breast pumps are also a good baby shower gift as the mom will need them when going away from the baby for a while.
First-aid emergency kit. Emergencies happen all the time where babies are concerned so gifting your friend with a First-aid kit is a very good idea. Make sure the first- aid kit has a nasal aspirator, tweezers, a baby thermometer, calamine lotion, bandages and a cold pack shares Pampers.
Diaper bag – Every mother needs a good diaper bag that will be able to fit in baby essentials when traveling or going for doctor’s visits.
Play mat – Get your loved ones a play mat as it may save the day when the small human has had enough of being carried, and crying reaching for the floor. The mat can also be carried with when travelling around or on long trips just to make your baby comfortable.
Baby Kit – Every parent needs to have a baby kit and getting one for the mom-to-be ia a very good idea. Oprah Daily, a news information hub owned by billionaire Oprah Winfrey shares that a baby kit may also help with “sharp nails, snot-filled noses, sharp fingernails, trapped gas, irritated gums”, and many other things.
