I'm so excited! I'm going to be an aunt!! For those that are mothers (or even those that aren't) what nifty baby items can't you live without?! I want to get my brother, his FI, and the baby the best gifts I can so any suggestions will be much appreciated!

Congratulations. I bought both of my nephews this Bright Starts around we go Bright Starts™ Around We Go! Activity Center - Kids II - Babies "R" Us

which they loved another thing my one nephew loved and helped him sleep for his first 6 months was this slumber bear The Original Slumber Bear with Silkie - Beige - Prince Lionheart - Toys "R" Us

Congratulations!! That's so exciting!! I once saw a website with the top 10 things your baby WILL use (it also had the 10 ten thing that turned out to be a waste of money)... I'll see if I can find the website, but hopefully the new mommies will chime in and know what I'm talking about!

Congrats! I love spoiling babies! My wallet is probably glad I don't have my own kiddos!

 

Things I know that get used:

Sophie Girraffe - teething toy that is all natural

Hooter Hider - I don't know if that is the correct name, but it's like a bib for nursing moms

Swadling Blankets

Robeez shoes

Bumbo Seat

 

I personally always give a baby bath tub filled with goodies and/or a baby medicine kit. I get an organizer and lable the drawers with medical stuff and medicines. I think both are very practical gifts and saves mom or dad from going to the pharmacy at midnight for some Motrin.

I do the same thing. I always get a smaller laundry basket and fill it with stuff you will never have enough of. Baby wash, lotion, wash cloths, ect. Then I put clear plastic around it, and tie it closed with ribbon and normally a teether attached to it.
