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

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.
