With the pregnancy bug constantly in the air, there is a very good chance that you will know someone who is already pregnant or is at least planning a baby. Pregnant women mean shopping, but finding that perfect gift can be a real headache. Here are the best five gifts you can get any expecting mother and guarantee that she will love and appreciate them. The baby shower gifts I list can be used for any occasion but will be a particular hit for a new mom.

1. Diapers, diapers and more diapers. That is quite a bland gift but a very much needed gift. I don’t any mom who will complain about having too many diapers with a newborn at home. To make diapers snazzy you have to dress it up a bit. You can find diaper cakes in lots of gift sites. Some come with as many as 150 diapers, plus booties, bibs and tons of other essentials for baby, but all in the shape of an all so cute cake.

2. Layettes, blankets, socks and burp cloths. Chances are they are going to get tons of these. However, these gifts tend to come in newborn or 3 months sizes which after a few weeks probably won’t serve its purpose anymore. Making this a great gift is if you buy them in larger sizes. After a few months, mom still has brand new gifts for the baby to enjoy.

3. Pamper products for Mom. The last few weeks of pregnancy are very uncomfortable and can be hard on Mom. Let Mom have the star treatment as well. Once the baby is born, Mom’s 15 minutes of fame are over.

4. Lightweight stroller and Baby Car seats are a necessity, and if you are the one who provies the gift – you will forever be remembered for your generosity. You can also get covers for the baby car seat to make cleaning them easier. They also look great and come in a range of colours!

5. Gift certificates. This is one of the best gifts you can get and although it may seem that no thought has gone into it, the opposite is in fact true because new parents often do not know what they need and so giving them the gift certificate for the baby shower is a very genuine way of letting them choose in their own time what is best for the new baby.

Tip: I recommend not buying clothes, and leaving this to the parents to do. Often the new parents to be will be given clothes from family and friends, besides, babies grow so quickly, chances are they will never get a chance to wear it.

Race car beds are a fantastic theme that you can place in any age of boy’s room. Working for any age it’s a great idea of a fantastic look that the child can also help with when you use it for their bedroom.

If your good at woodworking, you can even look into making race car beds yourself if you want. You have a choice when you buy them though between plastic materials or wooden race car beds. Remember you can always change the colors with some non-harmful paint too.

Purchasing a race car bed can be done online, or at a store that carries this type of bed (any kids furniture store should have them, as will most bedroom furniture stores). If you want a very realistic looking race car bed, you will end up paying more money. They come in wood, plastic and even metal in some cases.

You can even look for race car beds that are the colors of your kid’s favorite driver if he has one, and have his number on them. Add in some other accessories to the room to finish up the look. If you have your son pick out some of the accessories they will feel very proud.

Including your son in the decisions will make them feel bigger, and have a sense of pride about the room. Hey, who knows maybe they will even clean it more often! Adding in an area rug that is something to do with race cars or even the driver they like the most is a great idea too.

A dresser can be painted up in red, and with added features that make it look just like a big toolbox. If you place a race car bed close to the wall, add a mural on that wall so it looks like the car just drove from that spot.

Racing is a very big sport and with the idea of buying your young boy his own race car beds he will feel part of something more. You can find many race car beds on sale by looking on the Internet and comparing costs.

Windows can have racing flags along the top of the window to make it fit into the theme. Add in other wall hangings around the room that will make the room look even better. Starting with the purchase of race car beds you can build on the theme and turn the room into a fantastic work of art.
