What would be a good birthday/new baby present?

Question

My friend is turning 18 on thursday and she had a baby girl today.. I asked her brother if there is anything good i should get her and he said she already has heaps of stuff (for the baby i'm guessing). Has anyone got any ideas of something small (probably around $20) that i could get her?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Gift card to target or walmart. Trust me it'll help her with diapers, wipes, shampoo. $20 is a perfect amount of gift card. Get her a card congratulating her and put the gift card in it. I had a baby 8 wks ago and all those came in handy when I needed stuff I didn't get. Like I didn't realize we'd use wipes as fast as we did.

Answer 2

the greatest thing i got after my last baby was born was body wash and lotions. seriously. it felt sssoooo good to pamper myself after taking care of my kids all day!  

Answer 3

maybe get her a gift voucher for mothercare or something so she can get something to her liking :)

Answer 4

if she just had a baby maybe like some soothing spa bath stuff something like that so that she can relax

Answer 5

I-Tune gift card, or a gift certificate to Starbucks, or a gift card to her favorite store.  She'll appreciate the little luxuries now that she's got a baby and won't be able to afford it as much.

Answer 6

A good bet, especially because she just went through birth etc would probably be something like bath stuff. Like, bath oils and stuff like that. Something she can kinda pamper herself with.

Answer 8

With the new baby, she is probably feeling neglected, alot of new mothers do, just because they go from getting a ton of attention from being pregnant to no attention because everyone focusses on the baby. It is fun to show off your baby but you should get her something for her only.  Not for the baby at all.  Maybe some bath stuff so that she can take a breather and relax after a long day with the baby!!!  When my friend had her 18th I babysat for her, free of charge so that she could go out to the bar and be 18 and she really loved that present!
