Need help with baby shower gift?

racehorseg

My niece just had a baby shower last Saturday and I couldn't attend because I live 11 hours away. Anyway I am getting ready to go home here soon and I want to get her something. I asked my sister (her mother) what she needed that she didn't get and it sounds like she got everything she needs. So I am at a loss on what to get her. She's not due until June 22 and I won't be able to be there when she gives birth either. I don't want to get her something she already has that she will end up returning but yet I don't know what to get her. By the way she is having a girl. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks.

Answer
Onesies are great, and you use lots of them with a newborn. Another idea is to get her a gift card to a store like Target, Walmart, or Babies' r' us; so she can get what she needs. Another idea is diapers, wet wipes, or formula if she isn't going to breastfeed. Also you could get her something she can use to pamper herself, sometimes people tend to forget that new moms need pampering too!! Hope this helps.

Chang J

I am going back to school this week an has recently been informed that one of my past professors wife has lost her baby. I will probably see and talk to this professor again and i am wondering if I should by his wife a something.

P.S. If I do get my teachers wife a gift there is no way that he'll think that I am coming on to her cause I'm a man thats gay.

Answer
I think a card would be most appropriate. Gifts are usually given in celebration of something, not a loss.
