Diapers and strollers and bottles, oh my! Preparing to welcome a new baby into the family can be one of the most exciting, joyous times in life. From choosing Baby’s name and deciding what color to paint the nursery, to doctor’s visits and prenatal vitamins there’s just so much to do! That’s where the baby shower comes in! Not only does it allow family and friends to oogle over that glorious growing belly, but it also helps to provide many of the items necessary to care for a newborn. We’ve put together a list of thoughtful baby shower items for the new mom-to-be including some things to make pregnancy easier and more comfortable for her and some items to help care for that new bundle of joy. While darling little onesies and soft cuddly blankets are always welcome gifts, these items are a little less conventional and things mom will reach for time and time again.
From the moment that pregnancy test reads positive, indescribable emotions come flooding in and remain until that precious bundle is safe in mom’s arms. Oh, who are we kidding? Those emotions last forever. There will always be worry about feeding and diaper changing and vaccinations and first words and … the list goes on and on. For now, though, these thoughtful items are sure to delight that expectant momma and make this special time feel a little less overwhelming.
