Ok my aunt is expecting too so i can relate. if i didn't know the sex of the baby i would use soft neutral colors like green or yellow for the blanket http://www.nursery-rooms.co.uk/images/Winnie-the-pooh-nursery/Honey-tree-pooh-embroidered-fleece-small.jpg (sorry i couldn't give you more variety to choose from, this is the only one i found)
and dont forget the teddy bears, range them different in sizes and colours http://www.morethanagiftonline.co.uk/soft_toy_catalogue/teddies.jpg oh and buy diapers and if you want to you can sew or crotche (sp, pronounced cra-shay) a little pillow for him/her to rest on and to cuddle with, and try to make up a little lulllaby then buy one of those recording gift cards and put the lullaby on it, dont forget about the parents too, to help them save money on baby necessity's buy them at least a 20 dollar gift card for a baby store conveniently close to their home so that the mom doesn't have to drive or walk too long to get there. hope this helps and tell them congrats 4 me.

What are good gifts for a new mother and her baby (boy)?

My friend is having a baby boy, it is her first baby and she doesn't have a lot of money. I wanted to make her a new baby box/basket with things she would need but also some fun things as well, for both her and her baby. She is inundated with certain items of clothing, so as well as a few bits of clothing I want to buy some other stuff. What would you have loved people to have got you when you had your first baby? I want to get useful things, not silly things that she or her baby will never need.

Check out this website, they list many useful things that you can include in a homemade baby gift basket: http://www.best-baby-gifts.com/newborn-baby-gift-baskets.html
You might also like to think of a theme (either like mom & baby gift basket, baby bath gift basket or an overall theme like duckie gift basket, monkey gift basket, etc.
If you feel comfortable babysitting, I would also include a coupon for babysitting - every (new) mom will appreciate some time off from time to time! ;-)
Good luck!
