Day 9
Meet Amanda
Mum of 1, Sutherland Shire NSW
What were the best gifts you received at your baby shower? Or if you didn’t have a shower, gifts before baby was born?
Baby activity jumper, my bub loved it.. and nappies!
Were you gifted anything that you never got around to using?
I’m pretty sure I used everything we were gifted, although we may have been given a few too many booties that bubba didn’t get a chance to wear cause she just grew way too quickly.
Did you receive any gifts at your shower that were for you (not baby) and if so, what were they?
Nope! They were all for bubba.
What did you personally buy for baby before they were born that you never ended up using?
I may have bought a few too many outfits.. again she just grew too quickly and didn’t wear some at all. All the big items we bought were used.
Now that you’re a Mum, what’s your ‘go to’ baby shower gift?
Hmm, I like to put a few different items together, some nappies, a little outfit, some singlets and a book.
