Picking a baby shower gift can be fun! Help the mum-to-be to celebrate the joyous occasion with these stunning baby shower gift ideas that are guaranteed to put a smile on mother's and baby's face.
1. Bedding for the baby
Soft, snugly and itch-free baby blankets, fleecy throws, receiving blankets in pastel colours and decorated with cheerful motifs of teddy bears, lambs, and ducks will always be a wonderful addition to any nursery. Baby linen needs frequent washing and the new mum-to-be will be grateful to have extra stuff on washing day!

2. Nursing pillow
This unique support pillow doubles as a nursing pillow and play toy for the baby. It's great to help sore, tired arms with feeding the first few months and helps baby develop and play later. It also has many styles and covers.
3. Nappies -- what else?!
If there's one thing that a new mother needs (other than a few hours of uninterrupted sleep, that is) is an endless supply of nappies! However, toss aside the same old boring packet, and use your imagination instead. Give the delighted mum-to-be a 'nappy-cake'! You easily get these in the supermarket these days -- several dozen nappies all rolled up and arranged in layers giving a 'tier' effect. The 'icing' on this 'cake' can be a set of baby products (baby lotions, shampoo and baby oil). Be sure that your gift will be remembered long after the baby has outgrown the nappies.
4. Baby sling or carrier
The modern new mum hardly remains chained to her bed. There are always a hundred chores awaiting her. Giving her a baby sling or a carrier is one of the best ways to ensure that she enjoys hands-free mobility to do housework or run errands while her precious baby is comfortably strapped either around her waist or her back. A bonus is that the snuggling contact with mum (or dad) helps strengthen the parent-child bond.
5. Baby bath
Help the new mum take the tees out of bathing her newborn baby by making it a great bonding experience for the two of them. Make baby's bathing times super duper fun with an attractively-designed baby bath. Play safe and choose a size that can fit babies of all sizes. Throw in a baby shampoo, a mild soap that is safe for a newborn's sensitive skin, a soft washcloth and a hooded towel in which to wrap and dry the baby. What's a bath without a bright yellow rubber duck? A good baby bath can make this time a relaxing one for mum and her baby.
6. Bouncy seats
Babies love to bounce. Period. And her squeals of delight will allow mum and dad to complete pending chores as she one happily bounces on a bouncy seat. These seats are completely safe and provide entertainment for the baby as well (all that wiggling and jiggling is such fun!) Many seats come are battery-operated to allow for a rhythmic bouncing experience for the little one.
7. Baby monitor
If the mum-to-be has decided to let her newborn sleep in a different room, then she will definitely appreciate this gift of a baby monitor. A portable baby monitor receiver that can be placed on the bedside table is the best option. Now mum and dad can enjoy a few hours of shut-eye knowing that the monitor will 'watch over' their precious baby and wake them up if needed.
8. Baby 'gym'
Help her little one's motor and visual skills to develop by giving her a lovely baby activity mat. This is usually a device that includes a cloth mat from which an assortment of toys, colourful rattlers and other objects in varying colours, shapes and sizes dangle from bars or arches. All are within the baby's reach and she can happily remain entertained for hours, playing and reaching out for all those dangling goodies! These can also be great while travelling.
9.Help the new mum keep up her energy! Sponsor a home delivery service of hot meals to the new mum to survive the postpartum disorder that is inevitable when the baby has kept her awake all night.
10. Sentimental keepsakes
This could be a baby memory journal, for recording all the priceless day-by-day nuggets of the baby or a lovely keepsake box in which the new mum can preserve her baby's first lock of hair and the first tooth.
There are scores of other baby gifts that would work as well: a complete baby care kit (disposable nappies, baby powder, nappy rash cream, baby oil, cotton swabs, soft hair brush, baby lotion, baby shampoo, baby wipes, and so on); silver cup; teething rings or even personalised photo frames if you have prior information about the sex and name of the newborn. The idea is to give what you think is best and make sure your gift is both great and practical.
