What to put in a gift basket for a new baby and first time parents?

Hey guys, my pals are expecting their first child. Although I already gave them a gift, I would still like to assemble a modest gift basket that includes some essentials and nice-to-haves. Any suggestions?

Congratulations to your pals on their upcoming baby! Diapers, baby wipes, onesies, baby lotion, and pacifiers make great additions to a nice gift basket. Swaddle blankets, teething toys, board books, muslin cloths and a handcrafted item, such as a knitted cap, are all good additions. The combination of practical and personal touches will be appreciated.

Gift card for food delivery - healthful one-handed snacks that don’t need to be prepared Bathrobes, if that’s not odd; a treasure trove; Lasinoh gel nipple pads; anything caffeinated; electrolyte drinks or packets; gift subscriptions to favorite phone games, such NYT crosswords, that they may play with one hand while nursing.

It is always a wonderful feeling being first time parents. For the baby, I would suggest you get some diapers, a pretty water bottle, a soft baby blanket and nursing pads.
