What do you normally give as a gift to someone who just gave birth?

I like to give something they would need. If they are close to me, I would ask them if they needed certain things. When my sister gave birth, that's what I did and I think they would appreciate the gift more that way. If they are not so close to me, a good gift would be diapers, not for newborns because they outgrow them quickly, but maybe a S or M size. That was one of the greatest gifts I received when my daughter was born. My mum and aunt pooled some money to get a box of diapers of a well-known brand which is used in hospitals, very hypo-allergenic types. It did not last that long because my baby pooped a lot then. But it saved me a lot of money.

Blankets. You can never have enough!! lol

I received things such as clothes and diapers and flowers. You can give picture albums , new parents take tons of pictures and need albums to put them in. You can also buy little kits where parents can make a print of there babys hand or foot in clay, these are my favorite.

When my friend gave birth i gave her baby set of pillows and blanket. Happy mylotting!

Yes I do because it is like a tradition here in our place,Some of the gifts that I have given are some baby clothes,baby shoes and some toys and it is really a joyful feeling when you give someone a gift who just gave birth to her child think of the gifts as an extra bonus after giving birth to her little angel.Hope you liked my response and have anice day.

It depends of what new baby they have.. If it's a baby girl I will give them a pink blanket, floral little dresses and little stuffed toys for their pretty girl. If it's a baby boy I will give them a blue blanket and a pair of little socks and some little pajamas for their cute baby boy... Happy mylotting...

Usually I give toys and there's one tradition to give little silver spoon.
