Should I bring a gift for the mum or the baby?
When attending a baby shower, gender reveal, or anything similar, it is customary to honour both the mum and the baby. Guests commonly bring gifts that benefit both, ensuring they feel celebrated and supported.
Gifts for the mother focus on her well-being during pregnancy and beyond, aiming to promote relaxation and self-care. These may include pampering products, maternity clothes, parenting books, or gift cards for services like massages or spa treatments.
Gifts for the baby typically include practical items that aid in preparation for the new arrival and provide essentials for their care and comfort. This could encompass clothing, blankets, diapers, bottles, toys, and nursery decorations.
Ultimately, the choice of gifts depends on the preferences of the host and the guests. Opting for a combination of gifts for both the mother and the baby is ideal to ensure they both feel cherished and supported during this special time.
