Baby Shower Gift Ideas



I love creating these gift guides and although I am past the baby stage with my own children, I have friends and family who are still in that stage of life. I love giving baby recommendations on what they might need and what they definitely don't. Everyone is different. This year I am not only excited to recommend some amazing products but give some away as well.

Best Gift Ideas for Expectant Parents



I have loved creating these lists through the years. Products have changed so much since my babies were little. Today, I wanted to introduce you to some brands that I have fallen in love with over the years and a few new ones too that I recently came across, but all that would make PERFECT gift ideas for expectant parents. I know times are look a little different right now and I personally think drive by baby showers are a great idea, but just because things are a little different right now, don't put your life or family on hold. Enjoy the journey!

Baby Shower Gift Idea: Give Books Instead of Cards

I know so many people who are pregnant right now that I put together a HUGE list of Unique Baby Shower Gifts for the New Mom. My favorite gift idea though is to give a book instead of a card. Although appreciated, my children have their baby shower cards stuffed into a box somewhere. With a book you can write a sweet note inside the front cover, sign your name, date it, and you have given something that is useful and sure to be viewed often. They even make personalized story books now too.


There are two new board books from Studio Fun and Silver Dolphin that I would love to share with you for just this occasion.

Unique Baby Shower Gift Ideas for The New Mom

I know so many ladies that are having babies this year. Whether it is their first or not, I have rounded up some of unique products to give to the mom-to-be for herself to enjoy or for her to enjoy using with her new baby.


Some products were received for consideration. This post contains affiliate links. All opinions are my own.

Taking Baby Anywhere with GoPod Travel Activity Seat from KidCo

I received complimentary products to feature in my Baby Shower Gift Guide. All opinions are my own.

My cousin has a new baby. He was unplanned and she had already sold or donated all of her baby stuff. So when I saw her over Christmas, I knew I needed to help her out. Her little man likes to sit up and look at the world, but he is a chunk and it isn't practical to carry him around all the time. That's why I decided to reach out to KidCo. I had seen their GoPod Travel Activity Seat before and just knew it would be perfect for her needs.



My cousin is a busy mom to three kiddos aged four and younger, so she needed something that was light weight and could easily travel on the go. The GoPod Travel Activity Seat is perfect for her because it only weighs 7 pounds and is designed to fold and go. The attached floor pad keeps baby’s feet on a clean surface whether at the camp fire, on a picnic, watching the big kids play sports, or outside in a muddy area like we were.

Cranberry Baby Diaper Bag Review

I received complimentary products to provide this review. All opinions are my own.

I was so excited when I was being sent this leopard print diaper bag from Cranberry Baby because diaper bags have come a long way in the last few years. They are becoming more and more fashionable without the weighty cost. I remember searching online for a diaper bag with both my babies that didn't SCREAM diaper bag and was also in a reasonable budget, but could never find one.
 



I have taken this bag a few places now and get compliments wherever I go. I have thrown pool stuff in it, gym stuff, and of course regular diaper bag stuff for my 4 year old daughter and 1 year old son. It holds everything I need. It made of water proof vinyl so I can take it anywhere.
