Baby showers are becoming a massive trend in western society. They give friends and family chance to spend quality time with the mother to be before she is surrounded with dirty nappies and jars of baby food. They involve food, drink and novelty games, and of course gifts for her and baby. Most guests are divided down the middle when it comes to baby shower gifts. Half will be specifically for the baby and the other half for the mum.

You could naturally go for the age old option of clothing and accessories for the baby but bear in mind that if you dont yet know what the babys sex is, then mum is going to end up with a hell of a lot of yellow and white wear for her bundle of joy. At the rate babies grow she probably wont be able to dress him or her in all of them by the time they have grown out of them. So dont pour your money down the drain, buy gifts they can actually utilise.

As you more than likely wont know the babies sex, practical gifts are always a brilliant option. The Nap Nanny is a really handy wedge shaped sleeper for babies and mums on the go. This light weight and decorated. The elevated design aids restful sleep for babies and the raised edges provide soft spongy barriers to stop the baby from rolling over the edge. Its comfortable and easy to transport so its guaranteed to be a hit with any new mum.

A baby sleeping bag is another great way to have your baby with you on warm summer evenings outside or simply when you are just out and about. The comfortable design allows them to sleep in perfect warmth and the bags, known as Grobags, come in a range of different colours and designs. These snugly bags are so adorable and comfy that you will want an adult sized one for yourself!

A gift that will last forever and the mum will love, is a baby finger print kit. The little mould can be used to create personalised jewellery or photo frames that will last a lifetime. What could a new mum love more than a pendant necklace imprinted with their new born babys fingerprint? Mum could even have her print and babys print side by side on a silver photo frame with an engraving. Complete the picture with a photo of http://www.vuhebe.com
