Baby Shower Gifting - Top Gifts for Mum and Baby

Baby Showers aren’t just a time to celebrate the upcoming birth of a baby, but are also a time to celebrate mum, even if it’s not her first child. If you’ve been invited to a baby shower you may be wondering what to give, especially if it’s a second child or you know mum is incredibly organised and probably has everything!  

We’re always asked what’s the best gift for a baby shower, but ultimately it depends on the mum, bubs, their interests and much more. So we asked our customers and have compiled a list of the best baby shower gifts as recommended by our customers!

Top 5 Baby Shower Gifts for Mum and Baby

It’s lovely to give a gift that is for both mum and baby, as often gifts are concentrated just on the baby. Why not choose something that will help mum too?

1. A Crane Cool Mist Humidifier

Humidifiers add essential moisture to indoor air, which may relieve congestion from the common cold and flu, soothe scratchy throats, dry skin and eyes, and irritated sinuses. Perfect for babies, adults and everyone in between, a humidifier’s additional moisture thins the mucus in the sinuses, which may make it easier to breathe.

The 4-in-1 Filter Free Top Fill Drop Cool Mist Humidifier is one of our favourites as it can be used with essential oils and also has a built in white noise machine and night light. A humidifier can be used with a blocked nose, cold symptoms, dry, itchy skin and is safe to use from newborn.

This Crane model has a built-in white noise machine, which can help baby sleep better by blocking out background noises and mimicking the swooshing sounds of the womb. Babies can find white noise calming in the 4th trimester. It also features a night light which is handy for night-time feeds.

2. Boba Wrap

A stretchy wrap allows mum and baby to be close whilst having cuddles on the go. Mum gets some hands-free time, to walk with a coffee, do the shopping or run around after another child, whilst bubs gets to sleep soundly on mum’s chest where they’re happiest.

These are also great for sitting down with bubs as the soft, stretchy fabric moulds around mum and baby better than a more structured front pack.

3. Beco Gemini Baby Carrier

Great for getting out and about, the Gemini is a more structured carrier than a wrap. They provide good support so are fantastic when bubs is a little older, but can also be used from newborn. Dad’s also love the ease and comfort offered.

4. Woolbabe Sleepwear

Who doesn’t love a little matchy-matchy?! Not only will your babe be warm and cosy in their sleepwear, so will mum! In fact, the whole family can join the party with matchy-matchy lounge pants for mum and dad, a PJ suit for bubs and a PJ suit or PJ's for any older siblings. Awww....cute!

5. A Wet Bag

Practical and fun, wet bags are a go-to for many mums. Handy to have in the nappy bag or in the car, they are great for stashing reusable nappies until you get home, or sopping wet clothes after exploring the beach or local pool.

Top Baby Shower Gifts for Mum

It’s exciting to have a new baby in the world, but so often the excitement is focused on the baby and mum can almost be forgotten. Why not choose a gift that treats mum instead? Especially if it’s not her first wee bubba.

1. Woolbabe Relax! Lounge Pants

Super soft and cosy, Woolbabe Relax! Lounge Pants will keep mum warm when feeding bubs at night. They’re extremely stylish for the hospital or birthing centre and super comfortable for lounging around in all day. Matching Woolbabe Relax! Henley Tops are now available as well!

Plus, you can be matchy-matchy with bubs in a Woolbabe PJ suit as well - what’s not to love?!

 

2. Little Unicorn Nappy Bag - Skyline Backpack

A nappy bag that doesn't look like one! Mum will love this bag - hands free, on trend yet practical as well.

There’s enough space for all the baby gear (nappies, bottles, wet bags & more) and mum’s essentials. Bonus points for looking stylish and being made from soft vegan leather.

 

3. Little Unicorn Muslin Swaddles

You can never have too much muslin! These swaddling wraps are so versatile that they can be used for everything from swaddling to burping to shade, feeding covers and more.

And with such beautiful designs and 100% soft muslin, you can go wrong with these stunning wraps.

4. A Care Pack

New mum's don’t have a lot of time for themselves, so putting together a little care pack might just help them to remember to take a little time for themselves. We have lots of things that could be suitable and some of our faves are:

5. A Robe

Perfect for lounging around in and for covering arms at night when feeding, a gorgeous new robe for mum is a little bit of luxury. Good Night Society robes are lovely and soft and a little bit fun too or Ergopouch Robes are lovely too and you could be matchy matchy with your new bubs' swaddle too!

Top Baby Shower Gifts for a New Baby

Most people love to spoil baby with a beautiful, yet practical gift, but there's so many options to choose from. Here's what our customers told us they love (and what we love too!)

1. Merino Gown

There’s nothing sweeter than seeing a tiny wee babe sleeping peacefully. Help them have a settled sleep by gifting a Merino or Merino/Organic Cotton Gown.

The soft, snuggly merino will help keep babe warm, whilst the gown design makes nappy changes a breeze for mum or dad.

2. Deluxe Merino Rib Swaddle Blanket

Swaddling can help a baby settle better and for longer and the super soft Sleep Store Deluxe Merino Rib Swaddle Blankets are no exception. These are so versatile though, that you can also use them as a bassinet or buggy blanket, and this versatility makes them a great gift.

In a range of stunning colours, these blankets will help keep babe cosy as they grow.

3. Cuski Comforter

When bubs is older (6 months +), it's safe to introduce a comforter for unsupervised sleeps. A comforter (or lovey) can help settle bubs to sleep more easily and also help soothe them when out and about or sleeping away from home. Our favourites, the Cuski comforters, are breathable, safe and most importantly, highly loveable!

4. Woolbabe Mini 3-Seasons

A baby sleeping bag is a safe way to keep bubs cosy all night long. And the temperature regulating merino in a Woolbabe will help keep bubs at just the right temperature. The 3 Seasons is versatile enough to be used almost year round by adjusting the layers underneath.

5. Little Unicorn Hooded Towel

Bath time can be a relaxing time for bubs at the end of a busy day. Add a beautiful soft cotton muslin towel and wrap them up warm before dressing them for bed. We love the stunning Little Unicorn designs and how soft and fluffy the muslin/cotton towels are.
