Gift ideas for a baby shower

Baby Shower is an event for a future mum organized by her relatives and friends. It is – literally – about "showering" the pregnant woman with presents. What you should keep in mind when organizing such an event and what gifts should you choose?

The idea of baby showers originated in the U.S. In Poland this type of event is not so popular, but every year more and more women decide to throw a baby shower. It is most often organized during the last weeks of pregnancy. It is worth remembering that it is not the mum-to-be who is the organizer but someone close to her, like her sister or best friend. A pregnant woman can only suggest that she would like to have a baby shower.

What to buy for a future mum?

The idea of baby shower is to "shower" the expecting mum with gifts. When selecting a gift, you should think what a mum-to-be could need. It is then worth selecting the most functional items that will help her to complete a layette. The best way is to ask the pregnant woman what she needs or to discuss it with other baby shower participants.

A handy gift could be a swaddle sleeping bag, breastfeeding pillow, which will later become a child's soft toy, baby changing mat, baby bed bumper or organizer that will make storing the necessary baby care accessories easier and that will serve as an additional decoration of the bed and of the baby room. A baby duvet, a blanket or a pillow are also good gift ideas. There and other necessary accessories you can find on our website.
