Did you get a gift for your godparents from the baptized child? Our son is getting baptized on Sunday and it just hit me that we might need to get a gift for his godmother.

Ok, ok, totally re-write since I misunderstood the original question at first (and I don't know how because you wrote it very straightforwardly). Yes, it is nice to get a small token for the godparents. Whew, reading comprehension is good!

When I was a godparent, my sister gave me a gift. But it was bigger than she would have normally, since I'd also taken a week off from work to babysit when she went back to work.

No. I did not give DD's godparents a gift and I did not receive one when I was a godparent for my niece.

We gave my kids' godmother nice picture frames with a picture from the baptism.

We have never received gifts as God parents and don't really expect it. We do give gifts to the child as the God parent, though.

No, I've never heard of this until now! Usually it's just the godparents giving a nice gift, like jewelry.

I am wondering the same thing. I read something online re: etiquette and they said we should give DD's godparents a gift.
