Welcoming a new baby is a very encouraging moment. Especially if that happens to my friend, I feel happy with them, because the baby will bring happiness to his parents. I express my happiness by giving gifts to my friend who has a newborns baby so that their needs can be met. But the problem is: gifts for babies seem like all the same from time to time. So when I chose a gift at the Baby Shop, what was come in my mind was: "I am pretty sure that my other neighbor bought this for the baby too!" They’ll buy the same gift! I certainly do not want to give a gift that is not special. Moreover, I live in the village, the choice is not widely available in local baby shops and is very limited in number. How to get around this? Here are what I do lately if I have to choose a gift that can surprise the parents who are my good friend.
- Give unique and customized items, such as clothes with the name of the baby, or photos frame with their names.
- Make items that are customized to the baby, such as quilting blankets with the name of the baby, clothes made with unique patterned fabrics, or baby bag, with lots of pockets that make it easier for the mothers to look for a certain item, such as a pacifier, keys, diaper, or else.
- If you are unable to make, you can order customized items from the maker. Or you can look for it in a shop that specifically sell customized baby goods orders.
The items do not have to be expensive, the important thing is you choose the most appropriate for the baby and his parents with a little surprise and according to your financial condition. You can search at Lovingly Signed for special gifts for special babies, they offer free delivery for Singapore.
Because as this quote says:
All those cliches, those things you hear about having a baby and motherhood - all of them are true. And all of them are the most beautiful things you will ever experience.

For all parents, the baby is the best blessing they ever got, all the attention will be devoted to the baby, so if you give a gift that is most suitable for them, it means you make your friend happy and make her impressed with you and definitely appreciate your gift.
And as this quote says:
Having a baby is a life-changer. It gives you a whole other perspective on why you wake up every day.
~ Taylor Hanson ~
New parents must have a busy life outside of their routines since the baby was born, that's why we must give a gift that doesn't burden them. Examples of burdensome gifts are things they don't need, which will only accumulate in their homes like garbage. Or items that are easily broken, used only once and then can’t longer be used. Avoid giving this kind of gift to your best friend.
And the least but not last:
I can't stop staring at my beautiful new baby.

Very true! Babies are the most beautiful blessing, so they deserve the best, also the best gifts.
