Great list! I just had my baby shower last weekend, and wanted to add that any nursing and feeding-related items were appreciated such as burp cloths, nursing covers, and even nursing tank tops.
Great additions. Thanks so much.

Really enjoyed putting the list together.
You definitely can never get enough of a lot of this stuff! So glad you shared it with us at the Creative Style Linkup!
I just realized a welcome present for a newborn girl that includes a diaper cake and some bibs. Next time I’ll keep this list in mind, lot of useful ideas! Thanks for sharing!
Very welcome! Thanks so much for stopping by.
All great ideas! Another book I love to give with shower gifts is “Oh the Places You’ll Go!” Thank you bunches for linking up and partying with us!
Great list! We are actually planning a community baby shower with my non-profit organization and I think we covered all of these things on this list! I’m glad that we didn’t miss anything! Plus I have a baby needs giveaway posted on my site right now for those new mommies and daddies! Thanks for sharing with Creative Style
The community baby shower sounds like a great idea!
Great list. I love giving useful gifts. Thanks for Sharing!
GREAT ideas and tips! Thanks for linking up at Wonderful Wed Blog Hop. Carrie, A Mother’s Shadow
Always enjoy linking up.
Some of my favorites include Infant Acetaminophen/ibuprofen. gas drops.infant appropriate thermometer, syringe for meds, diaper rash med, lavender baby bath, … Basically, all those things you need for a sick/cranky baby you don’t think of til you need them! And I like to show Mom’s that generics are a safe way to save money. If you can find one you like, add a book that helps Mom know when to take baby to the Dr and when/haw to treat things at home. Can you tell I’m a nurse and I’ve worked Labor and Delivery. Pediatrics and Doctors office over the years? lol
Fantastic suggestions. Really appreciate your additions to the Baby Shower Gift Basket idea list.
I will keep this for future gift baskets list as I make gift baskets all the time
