Baby Shower Gift Guide


It seems that wedding season has been replaced by baby season! So many of my friends are expecting and that means baby shower time! I love sticking to the registry for gifts, but adding a few personal touches along with something fun, different and maybe even a little something for the new mom! 






Bath Time Gift Set|| I love getting this Honest Company Gift Set after the baby is born as a little something else for the new parents. I’ve purchased it for a few of my girl friends and they all raved about the products and the bonus is the little container it comes in can be used for storage!






Months in Motion|| Baby Stickers for the baby book or for cute posts to share with friends and family – we bought something similar for my cousin’s recent baby shower and I can’t wait to see how they look! Believe it or not, my sister used these stickers with my oldest niece (who is about to turn 12!) so these will always be a popular gift! 






Jellycat Blanket || Something soft and will no doubt be a great addition to the nursery! If you’ve never picked one of these up, they are so crazy soft you’ll want to sleep with one too!






Boppy Newborn Lounger|| One of my go-to gifts if it’s on their registry is the boppy pillow! I know how much my sister used hers with all three of her kids, so I know this is a great gift! Newer to the boppy scene is this newborn lounger that has some stellar reviews!! 






Coobella Diapers || These cute diapers have little sayings on the front like, “you will survive sleep deprivation” and “Exhausting, but worth it!” and will make changing’s a bit more fun – maybe! 




“New Mom” Coffee Mug || I imagine caffeine will become your new best friend 🙂




One Line a Day Book|| First smile, first coo, first bath – I think all of those will be documented via photos, but these one line a day books are awesome as well. I actually bought one that is for married couples for some of our friends and they loved having something to do together every day.




Travel Totes || If you know the name or monogram for the new baby a travel tote is great to load up with essentials! The best part is that it’s their monogram forever and as they grow up they can continue to use the tote – the gift that keeps on giving!! 




New Mom Necklace|| This is a little hard to see in the collage but, this is two tone necklace that is so delicate and sweet. It’s a mama elephant with her baby behind her – even better if their nursery is animal themed!






I have a few of these ready to gift to my girlfriends over the next couple of months and I can’t wait!! Do you have a favorite baby shower gift?

    Perfect timing – I was just struggling with what to get my friend! I always like to do a boppy or bumbo or one of those vibrating / moving chairs. Feel like those are always useful gifts!

    I like giving something personalized too! I've been giving monogrammed totes as gifts for years but never thought of for baby showers…brilliant!

    These are all such great ideas!!! I love that elephant necklace and clearly need one. Especially since it can double purpose for me during football season!!! The hoppy pillow is a life saver. As is coffee. All the coffee.

    It is definitely baby shower season for me- crazy how many people I know are pregnant! I love these personal ideas- it makes the gifts that much sweeter 🙂 My go-to is a monogrammed bib!

    Love this! The tote is such a great idea. I always stick to a theme for baby gifts with gift baskets so I can do my own thing and include registry items. It's easy to go overboard shopping for all the cute baby stuff!

    I feel the same way! It seems like everybody is now having babies instead of getting married, and I'm one of them! Those diapers are so cute, and I can only imagine how much more manageable they'd make a late night changing!

    All of these are so cute! I love everything from the Honest company – I think their gift sets are so cute! A monogramed tote is high up on my to buy soon list – you can fit so much in there!

    I love the idea of a sweet personal gift with an item from their registry! I have a lot of showers this year, too! Definitely putting a boppy on my registry. 🙂

    I feel the same way in that the weddings are somewhat dying down and now it's been a lot of baby showers to attend. I also like veering away from the registry list to add something extra. I bought similar Baby Month Stickers for my girl friend who's shower is coming up. Seems like most parents these days like using those to document the month to month growth of their baby whether they post it on social media or not.

    All such great ideas, especially the Honest products!! After having a baby myself and getting so many clothes that were not my style that I had to return, I really try to stick to registry gifts and give things that the couple will actually NEED and use! I agree that I try to add a personal touch though!

    These are such awesome suggestions! I always go for those belly stickers:) I also love to gift new moms teething necklaces- they're cute jewelry with natural rubber beads that babies can teeth on!

    Omg, girl, how cute are these gift ideas!? I know for sure any mom would love to receive them, I know I would! We're subscribed to The Honest Company and though we haven't used any of the products on our baby yet, we love the quality of service and of course how natural the ingredients are, so they make great gifts! I also love those diapers, how adorable!?!? I love the little sayings on them! Thanks for sharing, beautiful, and I hope you're having a great week so far!

    As a mama, I love that you included gifts for the mom to be. So many people forget that, and it feels so good to be remembered as the one doing all the hard work. (; Another great thing I always include with my baby shower gifts is some gift cards to places that have good takeout. That way when new mom and dad are stressed and need a good meal, one of them can stop to get takeout, on me! (:
