Baby Shower...

I bought my friend this for her new arrival

With the added gift box I think its £5 but I kept mine as a keepsake box

I would go with something like a Jellycat bunny , nice blanket or a gift card for somewhere like NEXT where they can choose outfits of their own style .

My 1st years website also has some nice gifts

These seem to be quite popular, useful at the same time

Sophie the Giraffe are quite popular teething toys

How about some nice toiletries for the mum?
I’m sure the baby will receive lots of gifts but I’d be nice to treat the mummy too x x

John Lewis Voucher If that’s the route you are going down. They do lovely baby clothes and baby gifts. We had loads
Of JL vouchers and get the kids things like silver money boxes, nice photo frames etc

Agree with Jellycat toys, a favourite childrens book or a set of 0-3 babygros from Next. You can't go wrong with any of those.

Thank you all, really appreciate your ideas.

Off to do some research...

Thanks again.

I found everyone buys 0-3 month outfits so tend to buy a six month outfit as I found that was when mine suddenly seemed to grow out of everything ! Just need to count forward to make sure it's season appropriate.

For someone you know due to your own sad circumstances, could you give the baby something that meant something to your own daughter? I don't mean something of hers, but something with her favourite character on it perhaps?

That way, you're sharing your daughters love to another generation and linking it to a happy occasion. It's a bit melancholy, but it has really helped our family with our grief.

Best wishes to you, hope you find the right answer for you.
