baby gifts for moms to be image
Just my op
I graciously gave a mother in my son's class a baby gift as well as a little something for her elder son (who is in my son's class). She is the room mom, does a great job getting things done.
While I know you souldn't "expect" a thank you, it seems odd to me that the gifts were not acknowledged in any way?!
Just wondering what your thoughts are.......................
Thanks!
Answer
how rude.
a gift is what is not expected or required, but a thank you always is.

How much should a godmother spend on a baby shower gift?
Lindsey H
I was asked to me a godmother for my best friends soon to be born daughter. I am throwing her a baby shower (with the help of her mom) and I was wondering what an average dollar amount was to be spent on the baby shower gift. I wasn't sure what is too much and what is too less.
I can afford anything. I really have no limit or budget. Yes she has a registry.
Answer
Unless your best friend is extraordinarily selfish, she will probably appreciate the fact that you are (presumably) spending money to throw her a baby shower, and would be accepting of any gift you can afford. My suggestion would be not to think so much about the price of the gift, but consider more the thoughtfulness and usefulness of the gift. What do you think she'll really need? Check her registry and get what you think she'll really be able to use, and also be something that lets her think about you every time she uses it. There are plenty of things that fall into those categories that are reasonably priced (layette, sheets, bath items, bottles, etc.). Besides, if you're the godmother, you'll probably get the baby another more religious keepsake type of present when he/she is baptized. But overall, I'd say get her whatever you want to get, and don't worry about what you should spend. It sounds like you're already doing enough.
And congrats, godmom!
