I am going to a baby shower soon and I wanted to put together a basket for the new mom. I was thinking of doing things for when the baby is sick/unhappy, like Desitin, gas drops, baby tylenol, Vicks vapo-rub, etc. However, I don’t have any children so I was hoping to get some ideas and recommendations from you ladies who have been there and know what helped you. What are your thoughts?

Baby tylenol and baby motrin (doctors recommend to alternate the two when the baby has a fever), diaper rash cream, johnson and johnson’s mentholated baby wash (really opens up baby’s stuffy nose), thermometer, medicine dropper, gas drops, teething tablets etc… What I really enjoyed also is my family made me a gift basket that had things for me to do in the hospital while in labor and recovering….they packed travel sized shampoos and soaps, toothpaste, yummy smelling lotions, deodorant, extra absorbant kotex with wings (she will definitely need those, a big bag of them), a pretty robe and slippers, crossword puzzles, and a magazine.
