The arrival of a new member to the family is one of the most
exciting events and even its waiting is celebrated in the form of a baby
shower. It is usually celebrated towards the end of pregnancy in the 7th
month.
The expectant mother is of course one of the happiest women
but then there is a lot of anticipation too with regards to the caretaking of
the child and how to balance work and motherhood for the career oriented.
If you are friend or a family member, you can increase the
happiness and ease a lot of the worries with appropriate baby shower gifts. Do
remember that there are many families who consider it as inauspicious to bring gifts
for the unborn. In such a case gifts must be for the mother.
- Books: There are some great books that can teach relaxation techniques or can just be a great past time for the expectant mother. There are many wonderful books that explain what to expect during the last trimester and what not to. You can also give books that offer tips and advice on taking care of new born etc.
- Maternity Clothes: An ideal gift when the mother has outgrown her old clothes by quite a few sizes. This serves as an excellent gift for families who do not like gifts for the unborn child. During the last trimester, maternity clothes are an effective conceal for the bulging tummy and also aids in comfortable movements or for nursing after the baby arrives.
- Gift cards: It’s a wonderful way to gift without worrying whether gifts will be like or not. It is a highly practical and thoughtful way of gifting. Parents can always pick up something later with the gift cards online or at any brick and mortar store later based on what they need or like.
