EstateName.com – Marie Purchased a $49.00 Gift for a Baby Shower
When I first started hosting and attending baby showers, finding the perfect gift for the mum to be was always a struggle. Our gift guide for all budgets, are items that I have personally bought for expectant parents, time and time again and will help you choose a gift that the mum to be will actually need and love.
To avoid duplicate gifts and tons of baby gro’s, our top tip is to organise a hamper of key essentials that everyone can contribute towards. That way you can ensure she will have everything she needs and helps to spread the cost.
If you are keen to purchase baby clothes, then go for 3-6 months or bigger, as the mum to be will likely receive lots of onesies for a newborn that the baby will quickly grow out of.
The expectant parents will likely want to select their own nursery items, furniture, crib and car seat etc. but do check if there is anything that they specifically want.
UNDER £10
A must have for all new mums who are planning to breast feed. This nipple cream is natural and hypoallergenic and can also be used for nappy rash and dry skin.

Nosefrida Nasal Aspirator
The Nosefrida nasal aspirator is an essential item for all new mums – I know several friends that swear by it. It was designed by a ear, nose and throat doctor to safely and hygienically prevent nasal congestion in babies and small children up to the age of 3 years. NHS approved.
