What to Put Into a Baby Shower Gift Basket

Customize your own baby shower gift for Mom.

If you’ve just received an invitation to a baby shower (or if you’re the one hosting a baby shower!) you must be wondering what to give the expectant Mama! After all, opening presents is typically part of the main event and you want your baby shower gift to shine.

Most guests will focus on “all thing baby”, showering Mom with baby clothes and baby gear from her registry. But what if we make things a little more exciting for the guest of honor? We at Nurtured 9 are all about surprising Mom-to-be with a gift that’s just for her.

Now of course, every newborn needs lots of care, and Mom will appreciate every baby-themed gift she gets. But as Moms ourselves, we know that Mothers also need TLC before AND after birth, and her baby shower is the perfect time to pamper her with self-care essentials that’ll help her prepare to care for herself as well as her new baby.

Our Nurtured 9 pregnancy gift boxes are filled with luxe, elevated items that help Mom take care of herself and make her feel more comforted and soothed during her final stages of pregnancy. With stretching belly skin, heartburn, endless fatigue and all kinds of other not-so-fun pregnancy side effects, Mama deserves lots of love! 

In terms of what specific soothing pregnancy self-care gifts to put into her gift basket, you have to take the Mom’s personality and interests into account and customize your baby shower gift basket ideas for her.

For the Homebody Mama

Does Mom tend to prefer to stay in? Give her items to keep her warm and cozy at home, like a maternity robe, nontoxic candle, a special handmade “Just For You Mama” mug, and a soothing tea.

For the Spa-Loving Mama

If Mom would rather spend her day off at the spa than anywhere else, fill her pregnancy gift box with clean bath and body products, like luxurious belly and body oils, bath soaks, and our sherpa-lined sleep mask. Or gift her the Nurtured 9 Spa Day Pregnancy Gift Box.

For the foodie mama

Who doesn’t love a snack? (Especially when you’re “eating for two”!). Add in a bag of white cheddar and truffle popcorn, a crispy box of handmade chips, a decadent salty, sweet AND crunchy chocolate bar, and a postpartum cookbook filled with nourishing and replenishing recipes for Mom.


Customize Your baby shower gift

Since every Mom is unique, our gift item combinations at Nurtured 9 are truly endless! Build the perfect baby shower gift basket in our Curate-Your-Own shop and make it as personalized as you want. Simply add items for Mom to your cart and we will bundle it all up into a beautiful, customized baby shower gift for Mom.
