How about a bedtime basket? Full of Pj's, bedtime story books, etc.
Also, you could do a clothesline of all baby clothes!

Has she registered? I usually get the "smaller" items and put them together in a basket if they're off a registry.

Otherwise, I would get onesies with a wide-range of sizes (newborn - one year)...blanket, towel, etc.

Buy the baby bathtub off of her registry and put all of the bath stuff in it. Maybe a baby robe and towel too.

she probably needs everything, onesies, bibs, washcloths, towels, burpcloths. a lot of that stuff gets ruined with each kid and ends up being thrown out.

Re: Need Ideas for a ....

what about getting stuff for both the mom and the baby...


like for the baby...

onesies
baby nail clippers
diaper rash cream
etc

for the mom:
cocoa butter/body bars
perhaps a neck pillow (one that you can microwave)
how about a really soft nightshirt

I gift I like to give for first birthdays is this

Colored galvenized pale - personalized.
Personalized beach towel or beach wrap.
Baby Sunglasses
Bathing Suit
Plastic Sand Toys
You can baby sun/spf products too.

It could work at a baby shower, esp if you know the sex of the child.

I get the personalized stuff from Potterybarnkids.com. They have great things...it might give you inspiration for something else.
