I don’t get it about the 0-3 onesies… My daughter wore them until she was like 3-4 months lol. We got a lot of use out of them. I do think though it’s a bad idea in general to give clothes in nb or 0-3 because new parents end up with sooo many. I think most people would rather have a big box of diapers than yet ANOTHER tiny outfit.

I love number one unlike all the others. However, in my case, I bought all the newborn clothes for my daughter while my mother sat by warning me not to because 1. I would get a ton at the shower and 2. she would outgrow them immediately.

So true, so true. My daughter was wearing 2t by 9 months (massive girl, born 1 week premature but 8lbs 2oz) lol great post

i agree with your tips on five worst that you may get for your child, But the worst baby shower gift I received was from well meaning grandma, who gifted sparklers.

my girl loved her wipe warmer, but she was born in the winter so those first few months of diaper changes were some seriously cold wipes, which made her scream bloody murder. i would warm a wipe in my hand, but those are always pretty cold, too. we also used those 0-3 mo. onesies, until just about 9 months. But the worst baby shower gift I received was from well meaning grandma, who gifted sparklers. I’m going to assume we were supposed to light them and wave them around away from the baby…

I had a baby wipe warmer and it scared me! It used to dry out and turn the wipes on the bottom brown, as if they were cooking them! LOL It broke after a few months and I started using COLD wipes on his bottom and he would SCREAM for every diaper change. I went through TONS of onesies when my baby was born. I didn’t get enough when I had my baby shower. =[
baby high heels? NO WAY! As for the soft toys, my baby didn’t have ANY toys! My husband and I had to spend a fortune on a ton of baby toys to stimulate him b/c no one bought us any. As for tee-tee pee pees go, I got pee’d on at least 5 times a day. I wish someone would have bought me that too! hahaha

Yup, babies, like bears, come in all shapes and sizes.

Mama C, we agree! The last thing new parents need is a bunch of unasked for stuff, no matter how great the intention. Gift cards always work, though checking the registry is better. That way you know your gift will go to good use and not just be an under-the-bed dust-bunny buddy or regifted back to you when you are expecting!

Does anyone have any favorite baby shower gifts they received?

P.S. Lydia, you are so right and you totally cracked us up!
