Anyone have any good gift ideas for around
$20 for someone having their third baby?
They already have a girl and a boy and
this one will be a boy. They already
have all the things they really need
except maybe diapers. I would like to
give them something useful or creative.
Any ideas?

I think diapers are a great gift. You
always need them.

Nappie's baby lotion baby bath a soft
flannel and maybe a couple of spare
dummy's in a nice basket are all cheap and
look very effective if arranged nicely in
a basket.
Or you could be completly unconventional
and buy a little something for mum instead
of baby I usualy do that because everyone
buys for baby but it is mum who has done
all the hard work maybe a voucher for a
beauty therapy session or just some nice
smellies ina bsaket so mum can chill and
relax in the bath after baby is sorted.

A gift certificate so they can get
something that they really need,
especially if you know that they are
responsible and will not take it out and
blow-it on something that is not
necessary. Or pick her up one day and
take her shopping when you know that her
husband or significant other or b/f is
their after the baby is born, that way she
gets a break too.

Actually anything will be nice. Its the
thought that counts. Diapers, wipes,
socks, baby soap, lotion, and clothes are
all the essentials.. But like sandyallen
said you could just do a gift certificate
and let them pick out something. And I
also like the idea from diamond splinter.
Maybe a gift certificate to a hair salon
or a nial place for mom.... Good luck hun

The most usful things I got at my shower
that were handy are
diapers
tylenol
plastic(disposable spoons/bowls) great for
travlelling
butt cream
socks
crib bedding
wipes
baby soap
nail clippers(ive been through 4 already)
they get lost so easy
all the things ppl never think off clothes
is always the first choice

You can go to walmart and get a johnson
&johnson basket with body wash, cream,
shampoo and oil . It comes in a basket
which she can also use later....Its about
$10-15.

I agree with gift card or buy something u
think is cute with a gift receipt. Then,
it's entirely up the them what they
prefer. If they have a double at least
they can return and get something else.
I had 2 outfits that were exactly the same
and 3 babyshower cards that were the same!
Went to exchange the outfits.
Good luck! The main thing is that ur
thought is with them. Happy shopping!
:d
