Having a baby dose not have to cost that much! EVERYONE has an opinion about what you should get! And of course NOT TO GET! When the baby is out you will end up with so many things, I ended up with loads of baby clothes.
But a point out, which I wished I had, was a baby-shower. Gather your friends, see how creative they are and see what how they used their “childmind” when selecting out present.
SO to help that “CHILDMIND” out…
1. Sophie the Giraffe / The Ultimate Tool for Teething
Lifesaver! The French Giraffe Sophie is a baby’s best friend with magical powers.
You can read more about La Sophie on kidsen blogg.
But buy from Mother Care; you can get Sophie La Giraffe Gift set for £ 19.99
2. Barnkammarböckerna
If you happen to be born and grown up in Sweden, this will be one of the ultimate present\gift you can give. Barnkammarböckerna (book), collection suitable for any child/children as well as adult/ adults and it comes with a cd. Sleep, cozy, singing or read out load times, there is a Barnkammarbok for any moments. I bought the silver one for my baby, as I got sick and tired of singing songs bonus and I mostly forgotten it came with a cd which I have on me iphone. So my bugaboo pram is a denim special edition as it sings on the streets. I would like to own all of them. The publishers have published ‘my own barnkammarbok where you as a parent can fill in…

4. Clothes, primark is not cool!
Giving clothes as a present is always nice, but not if it’s not 100% organic cotton!!! For babies to wear organic 100% cotton is dead important. Why?! As cotton these days are not created equal. Scary is, when reading that some so called 100 % cotton are mixed with cancer- causing chemicals.
Babies have sensitive skin and weak immune system so to take under account that organic clothes Is the only way to go.
5. Cocoa butter formula Tummy butter.
Thanks to this miracle cream I did not get a single mark or stretch on my body during my whole pregnancy. Love it! I could not get enough of the moisture that made my pregnant belly so soft. I still today use it, great for hard heels!
6. Lansinoh
Trust ME YOU HAVE TO HAVE A TUBE OF THIS as soon as the baby is out! My nipples were bleeding my first week. My baby and I did not have a perfect start when it comes to breastfeeding. It was “nipple -feeding” and a nightmare for me! I was in pain, but thanks to this miracle cream and loads of support from super mummy Karro and “breastfeeding whisperer” Jennifer, I could bond with my baby and I love every minute of the closeness.
7. Lavender Bath Soak
A baby shower does not necessarily have to be a present for the unborn; it could be for the mother to be. It’s a heavy job!
I have never been a fan of the fragrance Lavender. But my pregnancy changed that for me. It has this unbelievable calmness effect and I bought this amazing round container that had lavender bath soak powder from the body shop. Anything with lavender is a good present; you can even buy a lavender flower for the mother to be to have by her bed.
8. Gym Math
Back-time, a colourful padded mat with stimulating toys on arches for overhead play. Tummy-time, lowering the adjustable arches makes the transition to tummy-time easy. A comfortable pillow and mirror will encourage baby to spend time on her tummy whilst strengthening the neck and shoulder muscles.
9. Leka Mobil
Lena Håkanson has designed this Leka Mobil. It’s a barging "up in the air toy" price for £4.07 that stimulates the baby’s eyesight and movements, and most importantly a mobile that gives the baby something to interact with and focus one.
10. Lamaze Freddie The Firefly
These toys engage and entertain the little ones for hours. What’s so good with them is that you can clip them on: the car seat, pram, pushchair, and your baby gym play mat, thanks to the Lamaze link clip.
11. baby converse
for a cool baby
12. the baby lamp…
to scare away the monsters and the light to create the right mood when breastfeeding at night time. We bought the star as I my little one is my star and I love the colour blue. I loved the fact how the lamp has got that extra child safety and most important uses energy-saving bulb.
13. Philips AVENT SCH550/20 Bath and Room Thermometer
This item can create a discussion, especially if it’s between a Swede and a Britt. In Sweden the law says the houses these days should have triple glasses (used to be double) while in the Uk you can have single. The law says in Sweden not below 21 degrees. If you live together whit single glass in your home, where should you have your cot to put your newborn in? And how often should the heating be on? This great little flower monitors both room and water temperature. You will never have to guess. is it to cold? To hot?
