Snuza Halo Baby Movement Monitor

Snuza Halo Baby Movement Monitor - BasicDo you ever wonder what is going on at night in your baby's crib? Is he/she rolling around or just laying there in the dark?The Snuza Halo Baby Movement Monitor will give you peace of mind that your baby is ... read more...

This is absolutely the best gift to give to new parents (and baby) since SIDS is at high risk in infant stage. This could save a life because it detects baby's movement and breathing. As soon as it recognizes no movement at all, it begins to vibrate to wake the baby (or remind to breath), and if that doesnt do the job, it sets off an alarm for mommy and daddy. This is an amazing creation.

There's nothing more helpful then a swaddle blanket to secure baby. That always stops crying when they feel tight and secure like when they were in the womb. These are great because they are light material and you can check the diaper without having to unwrap and re-swaddle all over again. This has a little flap to bring down when checking the diaper. Its perfect and a must have!

Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes

This great toy is geared towards kids older than newborn, but he will grow into it. I recommend it because it's like the only toy of this type that isn't super obnoxious. The sound quality is good! It's not too loud and it actually sounds like music instead of the tinny electronic crap that usually comes out of these toys. The songs play for a while, too. It's not like 5 seconds and you have to start it again.
It's the only toy like this that I don't hate!
My boy loves it. Fun colors, designs, and songs. Under 10 dollars... great buy!

This is a really cute baby gift for a boy or a girl. The lamp is a soft little lovey to cuddle and play with and has the added bonus of a rattle to entertain. It also comes with a few burp clothes that are also very soft. My son got a giraffe when he was born and he still sleeps with it. He's become attached to his little friend and feels much safer when it's around.

My big sis always taught me that the most important thing to remember with a newborn is swaddling them properly and this definitely helps do that job well.

Summer Infant 2 Pack Cotton Knit Swaddleme, Green/White

A snug swaddle is perfect for a newborn. They are too little to play or even care about toys and most everyone gets toys or clothes for the baby shower, a great swaddle blanket like that will last a long time and must be saved in case you have another one soon! ;)
