what to put in a baby shower gift?

Okay so im getting my best friend a moses basket for her little boy. but im going to put stuff in it for the baby. i know im going to get him a baby jordan outfit & that’s what he is going to come home in but i don’t know what else to put in there. any ideas?

a pack of diapers. you dont even know how handy and helpful its going to be for her to have as many diapers as she can get. this means no running to the store because she ran out early, less money she has to spend on diapers a huge help.
heres a few other ideas
*pack of diaper wipes
*bottle warmer for in the car
*bottles brushes to clean bottles
*first aid kit (if she doesn’t already have one)
*changing pad to keep in diaper bag if her diaper bag didn’t come with one
*diaper bag if she doesnt have one of those packed with the things a mom would put in the diaper bag
*formula divider. (its a circular bowl pretty much which lets her put 4 proportions of formula in it without having to take the whole can of formula when she goes somewhere… i found this really helpful)
*certificates to small restaurants since she might not be feeling all that up for cooking
*boppy pillow replacement cover if shes using one an extra would be nice to keep on hand in case baby spits up on it
*baby tylenol or other medications a small baby might need.
*lotions, soaps, powders, diaper rash creme… stuff like that
*baby gift card to wal mart or somewhere in case there is something last minute she needs that no one thought of…
just a few ideas… hopefully you find some use out of the list…

    go to walmart, kmart or target and look in the baby section. the general idea is to put in a mix of cute, personal things along with some practical, everyday items. so… cute outfits, bibs, socks, hats, blankets, bottles, mobiles, teething rings, pacifiers, or even a breast pump. your money will run out before your ideas do.

    Get some baby bath stuff…like wash, shampoo, cloths, towels.

    Or receiving blankets, cloth diapers to use as burp rags (they’re the best), diapers, simple toys like rattles and things with mirrors, more clothes…
