    How about a personalized sign for the child's room that accents the décor? They have really cute ones for boys here: http://www.mysweetandsour.com/ We got two for our twin boys: "Safari Adventures" for Brayden and "Express Train" for Bryan. The artist is a mom, too.

    baby sleeping bags!

    My brother's girlfriend gave me these and I love it!. I don't have to worry about my little girl kicking the blanket up with her legs covering her face anymore. Yes, I saw my little girl do this in front of me while I was rocking her and my husband reminded me that we had baby sleeping bags. He found them in the closet and we use them every night!! I wish to buy more!!!

    There are tips on buying sleeping bags... http://babycare.iloveindia.com/sleeping/baby-sleep...

    A bath gift basket.

    I have received a cute little set that included a towel, washclothes and slippers that matched. You could add a rubber duckie, more wash clothes, baby shampoo, baby wash, etc..

    I would have liked something personalized for the baby...

    blankets gift baskets bottles clothes baby teething rings beds cribs any thing in the baby isle

  • I typically make a basket of stuff that you need for one particular thing like bathing....tub, wash, lotion, basket, towel, suit, socks, blanket, oh and powder, add a little rubber duck with whatever you can think of and make it all in the tub

    or like bottle feeding basket would need bottles, liners, nipples, burp cloths, suit of clothes, bib, bottle rack, whatever you can think of I guess, just be creative

    I would suggest a sling or a nursing cover. Check out this blog http://nolamommy.blogspot.com/ It has a lot of great ideas.

    I know this sounds corny..but DIAPERS!! Babies go through a crap load of diapers a day. There are really cute ways to put them together too. But it is something you know will really go to use!!
