When buying gifts items for a baby, it is easy to get carried away by emotion and eventually buy (it happens on more than one occasion) nonsense. And it is because there are so many products and so many needs that, for those who do not have children or frequent contact with children, choosing a gift for one who has just been born can become the worst of their nightmares.
To help you in this difficult situation, at Artpix3d we’d made a review of the best gifts that our consulted moms most appreciated in their childbirth day: considering them essential, practical or useful for raising their babies, and also some valuable suggestions and ideas to give as well to the recent mom.
For example, clothing: Clothing is always the most straightforward option, and also one of the most practical. But before buying anything, consider the following:
Is it the first baby? Siblings, especially if they are of the same sex, often have the oldest’s clothes.
What size? It is preferable to give clothes that the baby can wear from 3 months, 6, or even a year since it is normal that they give him or her a lot of clothes for the newborn, who also will hardly have time to wear. And on the other hand, it is difficult to hit with the size of a child so small. Newborns range from several sizes (premature, 0, 1 …), and in a few days, they will hardly fit in it.
What about the style of the parents? Today the vast world of baby fashion allows you to find clothes of almost all forms in a mini version—the times when children were dressed like little princes of the s. XVIII was left behind. Or not? More classic or more alternative, fortunately, today, there are infinite trends and styles of clothing for babies to choose from. Look at how their parents are and pick birthday gifts according to their style. You can always opt for a funny body, with a message, with the logo of Dad’s favorite music group, with the character of the series or the movie that Mom likes, etc.
Let’s take a look at some practical gifts remembered that will make both parents and newborn baby happy:
#1 Welcome set to take care of the baby’s mouth
Help parents take care of the baby’s mouth and future teeth with this toiletry bag. They usually include a silicone pacifier for 0-6 months with its pacifier storage box, something that will be great for them because the pacifiers are changed over time, and so they have a spare one in case they lose the one they have. It also has different toothbrushes adapted to varying times of growth, with a protective ring that prevents damage from it, and a biting ring for the first discomfort.
Besides, it also includes a hairbrush and special scissors for the baby. A complete set that will save you the expense of having to acquire these products separately as the little creature grows. In short, you can offer a welcome kit with seven practical products for the daily life of the baby in a gorgeous toiletry bag. And you will also like the price: only $17 at the moment.
#2 Baby Moments cards to photograph the most special moments
From the moment of the baby’s birth, almost every day is an event for his parents. Almost anything he does, the months he is serving, the little sounds he learns to emit, etc., are his first time, and what better way to celebrate with these letters, indicated for parents who love photographs. If your baby is nine months old, you can take a picture of him with the message that says, “9 months in mom’s belly and nine months out.” Or if it is the first time that he says, “Woo,” you can take a photo of him with the letter that reads: “I said Wooooo!”. Thus, they will be saved in the family album, and they will be able to remember that day better.

Wrapping up
When a child is born, many gifts are often received. Some of these gifts can be useful and necessary, but others can be kept in the back of the closet and never be used.
Therefore, today we looked at a compilation of the best gifts for newborn babies—most of them, useful and helpful gifts for the newly released potatoes.
Keep in mind that in the theme of gifts, you have to pay attention to the needs of each family. For example, if the baby will be fed with breast milk or formula milk if they will practice sleeping, if they will use disposable or cloth diapers, or if they want to practice carrying or prefer to use only the baby carriage.
