Mum of two, NSW

What was the best gift you received at your baby shower? Or if you didn’t have a shower, gift before baby was born
My Aunty made a quilt for my daughter which was beautiful but of course, she still hasn’t been allowed to use it lol.

Were you gifted anything that you never got around to using?
We got a lot of blankets and wraps, so there were heaps that never got used.

Did you receive any gifts at your shower that were for you (not baby) and if so, what were they?
No, I don’t think so.

What did you personally buy for baby before they were born that you never ended up using?
I bought a boys singlet with the letter C on it and a hat, then I had a girl. Then when I did have a boy, he came out huge and didn’t fit into either of them.

Now that you’re a Mum, what’s your ‘go to’ baby shower gift?
I still don’t have one but I don’t think you can have enough bassinet or cot sheets because they spew all the time and you need to change them.

A single tip for labour/delivery day
Be prepared for anything when you walk through the hospital doors
