Like we always run into dh's aunt and uncle at the pool so they gave us a pool baby floaty thing. I thought that was nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473875 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 15:11:34 +0000 hilsy85 473875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with books! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473801 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 14:02:07 +0000 Bao 473801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Diapers are always a nice gift, if you are going for practicality. We are book lovers, so a nice book with a message from you would be personal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473724 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 12:41:34 +0000 immabeetoo 473724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think from now on and having a baby my gifts will be a&amp;a blankets, a&amp;a blankets, and zip up sleep n plays! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473691 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 12:25:34 +0000 blackbird 473691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A CD of relaxing music and a collection of new baby books is always cute! My friend always gives that and it's very sweet </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473686 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 12:23:27 +0000 Mrs. Pen 473686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: I was going to say that! I order A&amp;A blankets from Amazon for ALL my friends now! If I am short on time, I get books, diapers/wipes, or a GC. And something for mama! I like wine or chocolate - my midwife recommended "liebfraumilch" which means "mothers milk" in German and is supposed to help with milk letdown! But would be much appreciated for a mother not EBF too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473676 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 12:17:55 +0000 loveisstrange 473676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>AA blankets are a fantastic gift! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473593 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 11:15:54 +0000 eeh 473593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Books are great, sleep sheep, white noise machine, glow worm or seahorse, or diapers. The best gifts to receive are often the least fun to give. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473586 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 11:12:41 +0000 sorrycharlie 473586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm do you want to go cute or practical? :)</p> <p>books are great - I surprisingly didn't get more than 2 at my shower, so any time someone asked what I wanted for her I answered books!</p> <p>diapers and wipes are ALWAYS helpful, include a gift receipt in case they want to exchange for size or brand.</p> <p>small giftcard? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-baby-gift-suggestions#post-473562 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 10:53:11 +0000 photojane 473562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, I'm finally getting to meet my nephew for the first time today, and I'm so excited! He's 12 days old, and I want to bring a little gift with me. I know that he has plenty of clothes and little toys, so I'm not sure what I should get for him. Any suggestions? </p>
