What To Give The New Parents After Birth Announcement

So when you receive that baby announcement or birth announcement, along with those cute photos of the baby, you could barely contain your excitement and would want to see the little bundle of joy as soon as possible. You won’t be the only one who is excited about it, for sure. Albeit the new parents don’t require it, it would be best if you send or visit the beaming new family bearing gifts. 

There are lots to choose from when it comes to what to get the baby or the new parents. There are baby essentials, and you could throw in some baby clothes and toys. You can even incorporate the birth announcement details in your gift. The parents would surely cherish it forever.  For the parents, what you would be getting them would be a little different from the ones you got them for baby shower. Grab something fun and cute.

Still at a loss on what to get the new family? Whether it’s for a sweet baby girl or a bouncing baby boy, we’ve got you covered.

1. A Gift Card  

Also known as gift certificate, gift voucher and gift token, the gift card is a great option if you are yet confused or just don’t have the time to shop for gifts. The new parents would appreciate this, as they could actually use this in purchasing baby needs, especially when they are also caught up with designing their baby’s room. They would most likely be deciding on the colour of the room as well as some wall art, such as nursery animal prints. It would best if they can also use the gift card in purchasing something to add to that room.

2. Pillow Spray

With a new baby, parents are bound to be sleep deprived, and when they finally get the chance to get some snooze, a little help from a soothing blend of scents would make them fall into a more relaxed sleep.

3. Hilarious Pacifier

Speaking of sleep, it would help if you would get a pacifier for baby, but get one that would make the new parents laugh. With the stress that may come with taking care of the new little person in their life, a good laugh would be well appreciated. You can get one of those pieces that are attached to a stuffed animal as it will less likely fall to the ground.

4. Funny Bib

Opt for a set of bibs with funny messages. It would definitely stand out and would easily become the favourite among plenty of bibs the new parents would likely receive, which would usually be in basic designs.

5. Keepsake Calendar

You can turn images they’ve sent you or photos they’ve posted on social media related to pregnancy and birth into a real keepsake. There is surely enough and even more photos to use for a 12-month calendar they can actually use.

6. Customised Blanket & Pillow

You can also have those pictures printed on pillows and blankets, or simply use the names of the parents and that of the baby and add a short message. Baby blankets and pillows are not only practical gifts, with a little bit of customisation, it can hold much sentimental value as well.

7. Baby Sling

Make carrying comfortable for both the baby and the parents through a baby sling that frees up the parents’ hands to do something else or to just bring the baby along for a stroll. 

8. Cute Towel

Get one in clever design. There’s a hooded towel that would look so cute on the bundle of joy.

These are just among the popular gifts given for the birth of a new person who is bound to bring so much joy in the parents’ life.
