Best Gifts for Baby Showers Under $50

The best small gift is the one already on the parents' mental list. These are the items that get used within the first week.

Give consumables and duplicates

Swaddles, bottles and washable covers get dirty daily. A second set is always welcome and never a duplicate problem.

Give the unglamorous things

A nasal aspirator, a nursery thermometer and a portable sound machine are not pretty, but they are the ones parents message you about later.

Skip clothing sizes you have to guess

If you do buy clothes, go up a size and choose organic cotton basics that survive a hot wash.
