It is normal to bring gifts for the baby like clothing, toys, mobiles and bedding. Try to find out what the prefered styles and colour options of the parent are first with clothing and bedding, small soft toys, baby towels and blankets are generally safe if you don't know the person too well. If you are a close friend or family then a present that can be kept until the baby is older like a photo frame, silver teething ring, silver necklace.

Its ok to bring gifts for the new mum either as well or instead of gifts for baby, normally these are pampering gifts like flowers, chocolate, nice quality toiletries, favorite alcohol if she is not breast feeding (she hasn't been able to drink in 9 months!) or whatever her favorite treat is. Generally, gifts to make her feel good about herself are a great way of ensuring she doesn't get the "baby blues". Everyone will want to give the new arrival presents but people can forget about the new mum.

If you are looking for the ideal gift.

Try getting some sleepers.

Or a small throw blanket that can be draped over the mothers shoulder so that

when she is burping the baby or rocking the baby to sleep.

or you can get a musical toy for the crib to help the baby sleep.

Or another nice gift is a piggy bank lots of people give those at baby showers.

And the number one gift to give is, Get your self some nice colored paper and

make a booklet of coupons. You can make some that says, this coupon is good

for a one hour break. or this coupon is good for a night of baby sitting.

Something like that cause all mothers with a new born baby needs a break

once and awhile. And it shows that you put some thought into the gift. Rather

then grabbing the first thing you seen for a baby at wal-mart.

Generally the friends of the daughter-in-law will give a baby shower, but it's always nice when the mothers get involved. Both mothers could work together for a surprise baby shower.
