Gift suggestions become more important for the subsequent showers as mom already may have some of the items. Remember the stores at which the new mom is registered. Then keep a list of baby shower gift ideas that coordinate with the baby shower theme.

For guests planning to give baby clothes, suggest sizes other than just newborn to three-months (the size of many babies’ wardrobes shrinks at six months!).

Also be prepared to host or delegate a gift pool for those who want to contribute to a larger gift for the baby.

Best idea is to include a sheet with each baby shower invitation that lists the vital information like name, telephone number, customer id, location of the store etc. This way the baby shower gift reaches the right hands at the right time.

However, in case mom is not registered, include a note in the baby shower invitation that if gift ideas are wanted you can
