Baby Hip Seat And Other Gifts

By Lela Perkins


When a new child is brought into the world, it is a very special time for the family and their friends. Those who are close to the couple may like to buy a gift. There are a lot of ideas to choose from, including outfits, a baby hip seat or a soft teddy.

An outfit is a popular choice for new babies, especially because they grow so quickly and will require many changes. It is relatively cheap to buy simple outfits in bulk, but as a gift it may be pleasant to buy something more special or fashionable. This may also be defined by the time of year of the birth, for example a Christmas child may be presented with a themed fancy dress outfit.

One of the most popular present ideas is a soft toy or teddy bear. Those on a budget, or perhaps younger family members, may like to buy this type of gift. Some will be marketed especially to suit a new birth, but a cheaper item can be just as special if it is presented during this wonderful time.

Closer friends and family members may choose to buy a more substantial present. As most parents will prepare well in advance by buying nursery furniture such as a cot, it could be helpful to buy something that will be needed a few months later, for example a bouncer or a high chair. However, it may be worth discussing this with the parents to make sure they have the necessary space to keep these items so far in advance.

The baby hip seat is an item that is growing in popularity. When the child becomes old enough to be held at the hip they may be quite heavy after long periods of time. Wearing this piece of equipment can help to lessen the chances of the parents developing muscle aches and pains as a result of holding the child without proper support.

When the child is first born, it is likely to be swamped with gifts from friends and family members. It can be nice to show some appreciation of the parents themselves by buying them a gift that is unrelated to the child and is focussed on them as a couple. For instance, their favourite drink and a box of chocolates to share may provide a pleasant evening of relaxation. You could even offer to babysit while the spend some quality time together.

For parents with a young child in the family already, they may be somewhat worried about the diverted attention. Some parents will be anxious about the possibility of resentment developing, especially if their first child has become a sibling for the first time. Close friends and family members may like to help in honouring the sibling position by buying a small gift for both children.

There are lots of different ideas when it comes to buying presents for a new child. While most will honour the birth with a small present that can be used immediately, it may be nice to buy something like a baby hip seat or high chair that can be used a few months later. However, for larger presents like these, you may consider asking the parents first to ensure nobody else has bought the same gift.
