Baby shower gifts

My friends have asked me to let them know a few things I need just so they don’t buy the same things others do xxx

I love getting my girlfriends (pregnant or not) pamper days. The last one I got was a £50 facial from Lush. But anything like massages, facials, nail session, etc x x

I think money transfer or cash is the best + a card.
Not quite the same as buying some miniature baby clothing but it is extremely useful for the parents so they can get what is needed.

Vouchers can come in handy too, but it’s limiting the store options for spending.

A gusto voucher! So they don’t have to worry about food for a few days once they are home! (I hope I get a voucher 😂)

Highly recommend COOK new parents meal boxes for parents. We’ve bought them for a few different couples and each of them have said how much of a lifesaver it was during the first couple of weeks x

One of the most useful things to come in handy with my first was a box of useful items like calpol, wipes, colic things, talc etc. I didn't appreciate it as you can not use them on new born but was so helpful to have them when I needed them in the middle of the night. It was wrapped up and had a useful storage hamper as well.

A TENS machine for contractions! My sister in law has given me this and she says it’s a life saver and a must for hospital bags

I make nappy cakes for any baby showers I go to (except one where I knew they were going to cloth nappy so I made them a hamper of various baby gros, toiletries for mum and baby etc)
