Default Re: Baby Shower Help

These are my favorite things to get: pacifiers, diapers, wipes, and a board book. I really don't like getting clothes and I am picky on the softness of baby blankets. Why I don't like clothes is because everyone has different taste. For me, my babies wear just sleepers and onesies for the first 6 months (except for sunday church). Other people change their baby's outfits 2ce daily use because they like putting them in cute outfits. Everyone is different, on the otherhand, who can't use diapers?

For the mommy, how about some nice foot lotion or something like a gift certificate for a pedicure, since she probably can't see her feet right now?

If you can't afford a bunch, you could go in with another person or two and fill up a basket with things that are small. Travel wipes are great (use huggies 1 off coupon) and get them free or very cheap at walmart. Johnson buddy soaps are 99 cents and there are always coupons out there for 1 off johnson' products. Sometimes you can find coupons from ebay for 20 coupons for 2 dollars. So, you would pay 2 dollars and get 20 dollars worth of products.

Someone gave me a baby bath and filled it up with bath products. I thought that was a cute idea.

Oh, balmex would go along with a diaper basket. Have you ever seen a diaper cake? Those are adorable. Just do a google image search on diaper cakes. They are made by putting diapers together to look like cakes.

Hope this helps
