Cute Gift Ideas For a Friend That Just Had a Baby

September 15, 2020 by Jackie Cravener

After much anticipation, your friend has finally brought her baby into this world! There’s so much relief and happiness in the air and everyone can’t wait to take a peek at that little bambino.

However, it’s probably not a good idea to visit the new parents empty-handed. Though they’re not expecting anything from visitors, bringing mommy some gifts to pamper herself with and perhaps make her parental life easier is a kind gesture. After all, it’s the least you can do as a friend.

If you don’t know what to get her, don’t worry. In this article, we’ll take a look at four gift ideas you can present to your friend!

Mommy and me matching clothes

A great way to symbolize the bond between a mom and her baby is by wearing matching clothes! They’ve become so popular over the years and you can get all kinds of cute designs. From matching floral dresses to graphic t-shirts, there’s something for every personality and season.

This is a fun way to add some order to mommy’s new routine too. She won’t have the time to go through her dresser, so having clothes that match her baby’s just makes decision-making easier!

Feeling generous? Throw in some hand-knitted booties for the bundle of joy and a matching pair of socks for the mom!

Baby journal

Taking care of a baby is hard work, and parents don’t realize how quickly the baby grows until it’s too late. With a baby journal, your friend can jot down all of her baby’s precious details that she would forget about otherwise. 

From the baby’s first look into the real world to their first birthday, these are milestones every parent will be happy to go through time and time again! In the midst of juggling through work, chores, and babysitting, it’s nice to look back and see how far everyone has come.

Meal kit delivery service subscription

Parents of newborns will always find it difficult to cook a healthy meal or go out for lunch. Time is a huge factor in this. As they can only squeeze in time for chores when the baby is asleep, having food delivered to them is a great way to ensure parents get adequate nutrition while they are on their toes!

Meal kits are convenient because the ingredients come in already measured, chopped, seasoned and are ready-to-cook. Depending on what the parents prefer, they could pop it in the oven or toss it in the pan and have their meals ready in minutes! 

Beauty Basket

Moms are expected to face a lot of sleepless nights and missed skincare routines. At times, they might feel like walking zombies. Having an all-in-one beauty basket that includes their favorite products is a great way to pamper themselves and feel youthful again!

Though you can get pre-packaged beauty baskets, it’s better to make one yourself! It adds a personalized touch to it that your friend is going to appreciate more.
