  1. Boppy® Feeding & Infant Support Pillow: Whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding, the Boppy Pillow has been supporting mom for 25 years and counting.

  2. Boppy® ComfyFit® Baby Carrier: Consider gifting mom with a necessity — a baby carrier!  Boppy® offers a simple, trendy baby carrier made from soft fabric and spandex. It's the perfect gift for all on-the-go moms! It’s soft, stylish, and oh-so-cute.
     
                             

     
  3. Books to treasure: Whether it’s a book that caught your eye or one that you loved as a child, this timeless gift idea is sure to please. Write a sweet note on the inside cover for mom-to-be (and baby) to treasure as they grow together.
     
  4. Modern diaper bag: This isn’t her mother’s baby shower, so why should she have an outdated diaper bag? Long gone are plain, shapeless diaper bag styles. Today, you’ll find a wide range of choices that any new mom will be proud to carry around. Fill it with a few on-the-go items like baby wipes, hand sanitizer, blankets, or a changing pad.
      
  5. Bath time essentials: Have some fun with a bath time essential “kit” as your baby shower gift! Use a baby tub as the “wrapping”, and fill it with everything baby will need for bath time. Choose adorable hooded bath towels, shampoo and head-to-toe wash, and lotion. Don’t forget a few fun tub toys too!
      
  6.  Bibs, bottles, and pacifiers – oh my! Any mom-to-be will appreciate this type of gift. Fill a decorative box or reusable bags with all the “little things” that she’ll need for her newborn – bibs, bottles, pacifiers, wipes, socks, hats and beyond!
      
  7. Extra Boppy® Slipcovers: If you know mom-to-be will be receiving a Boppy® (or two) at her shower, then extra slipcovers are the perfect gift! They come in a variety of washable fabrics and whimsical prints, and will come in handy when messes happen.
      
  8. Boppy® Newborn Lounger: The newborn lounger is the perfect place to set new baby down. It gives parents some much-needed hands-free time! The loungers come in a variety of fun patterns that you can choose from.  
      
  9. Infant carseat: You can’t leave the hospital without one! Any expectant mom will want to have this item on hand as early as possible. It makes the perfect shower gift, giving mom-to-be enough time to set it up before baby’s arrival.
Any mom-to-be will be thrilled to have any of the items on this list. Her baby shower is a special day and she’ll appreciate spending the day with friends and family to celebrate and prepare for her newborn.
