Gifts for discharge from the hospital

The birth of a child is always a joyful and long-awaited event. Not only close relatives, but also friends hurry to congratulate the mother and baby. The best gift ideas for such a special occasion are collected in this article.

It is very important to think over a gift for discharge from the hospital. It will be great if the presented things are useful to both mom and baby. However, if you want to make a pleasant first of all a girlfriend or sister, then you can use the following list of utilities for a newly made mom:

• Certificate for spa, wellness, fitness or yoga. Such a present is perfect for an active woman who is used to taking care of herself. After childbirth, many women may experience problems with skin tone, as well as overweight, so such a gift will come in handy. It is better to purchase a certificate that is not tied to a specific date and time. Thus, a girlfriend or sister can safely dispose of it at a convenient time for her, even if she has a baby.

• Radio or video nanny. This thing is extremely useful for the parents of the baby and greatly simplifies the care of the baby. However, this technical tool most often belongs to the category for which a young mother is sorry to spend money. Therefore, the radio nanny will be a wonderful practical gift. Due to the fact that good models are not cheap, it is usually customary to collect money from several friends or relatives for such a present.

• Bottle sterilizer with heating function. Such a gift will become relevant if mom has little or no milk at all.Then this device will facilitate feeding the baby with the mixture. The convenience of the sterilizer is especially important for obligatory night feedings, which can exhaust the mother very much at first. Therefore, making a choice in favor of this gift, it is worthwhile to be ready to hear the words of gratitude and rave reviews of a relative or girlfriend more than once.

• Car seat. Such a gift is unlikely to suit a friend, due to the high cost, but it is quite possible to give this irreplaceable thing to a sister or other relative. Now there is a car in almost every family, and many women drive themselves perfectly. A 0+ car seat will make it easier for mom to visit the clinic and other places with her baby, and also make trips safe for a small person.

The most popular as a presentation on the occasion of the birth of the baby, of course, clothes. As a rule, it is always given a lot, because children grow up very quickly in their first year of life. If you really want to give exactly things, then the following nuances should be taken into account.

• Do not purchase a lot of one-size clothes of the same size. The best solution is to buy several body, slips and T-shirts of the smallest 56th size and several copies for growth. Many children in the first month of life grow by 4-5 cm, and clothes in a month will simply become small.
• Prefer natural fabrics. The ideal solution is cotton and soft knitwear. The baby’s skin is very sensitive, so serious irritation can occur from synthetics.
• When choosing clothes that are tiny, you should give preference to buttons rather than buttons. This will save not only time on dressing and undressing the baby, but also the nerves of the mother. In addition, the slips should have a comfortable bottom, allowing you to change the diaper without taking off the whole clothes.
• All decorative elements must be firmly sewn and not have sharp parts that could injure the baby. It is better if the decor will also be textile or thermo.

Practical gifts for the baby will not only please the mother, but will also significantly simplify life. With care for the health and well-being of the baby, you can give the following presents.

With the birth of a baby, special requirements are made to the microclimate in the apartment. A comfortable level of humidity, especially in winter, is difficult to achieve due to heating. Dryness in the room can cause a baby to feel unwell, as well as frequent colds. Therefore, such a gift will be appreciated by every mother.

Most children's stores offer ready-made sets for hygiene procedures in the bathroom. However, it may turn out that collecting the necessary things yourself will be cheaper, and the quality of the items will be better. Such a set may contain:

• a large terry towel with a "triangle";
• 2 small towels;
• set of bathing toys;
• thermometer for water;
• hypoallergenic products for bathing the baby (gel, shampoo, soap, means for washing the baby).

A great and practical gift, especially for winter babies. In cool weather, sometimes you don’t want to pull out the stroller for a 20-minute stay on the street with your baby. Then the envelope will be an excellent exit:

• the baby can be quickly collected for a walk and then also quickly undressed;
• there is no risk in the envelope to catch a cold, as it is reliably protected from wind and cold.

Such a gift will not come in handy in the first months of the baby’s life, however, the mother will be appreciated at 4-5 months crumbs. It is at this age that the child spends a lot of time lying on his stomach, and a rug with a bright design will perfectly develop the sensory, stimulate the motor and cognitive activity of the baby. Great mats are made by Tiny Love and Fisher Price.

Traditionally, the main difference between a gift for a newborn girl and a boy is the color scheme. The girl is suitable for all shades of pink, the boy - blue and blue.

Sometimes I want to please the newly made mother with something unusual. Then the original surprise will be what you can do with your own hands. It is also not forbidden to acquire cute and useful gizmos from handmade masters.

You can make the following presentations yourself.

• Cake or other figures from diapers. On the Internet you can find master classes that detail how to make a snail, a bear, and even a motorcycle from these hygiene items. Such a gift will be not only beautiful and original, but also useful, since diapers in the first months of a baby’s life are the main “expendable” material.
• Embroidery pattern with baby metric. A gift cannot be prepared in advance, but only after the birth of the baby. The picture usually indicates height, weight, time and date of birth. You can also embroider the name of the city in which the baby was born. Usually the metric is supplemented with a suitable image. The color scheme is performed in classic shades (blue for a boy and pink for a girl).
• Knitted booties and plaid. Such gifts always blow warmth, they are especially dearly loved by close relatives. It is important to use yarn that does not contain natural wool, is not able to cause skin irritation and allergies. Ideal to knit from acrylic.
• Scrapbooking style photo album. A similar thing, if there is no experience in self-production, it is better to get from experienced craftswomen. Handmade photo albums usually contain a large number of additional sections and pockets where mom can store the first lock, tags from the hospital and other things dear to the heart.

Selection of a gift for discharge from the hospital is a responsible event. In each case, completely different things may turn out to be an ideal present. But with a little care, you can easily guess what will be most desirable and useful for both mom and baby.
