The 5 Favorite Baby Gifts
We weren't surprised by the item most
moms were glad they received. A whopping
52.7% of moms chose "clothes in
larger sizes" as one of their
favorite three items.
Second choice was "clothes in
newborn sizes", chosen by 26.8% of
moms. "Books" (25.8%),
"bath and skincare products for
baby" (23.7%) and
"blankets" (21.5%) rounded out
the top five.
An honorable mention goes to
"diapers". A lot of moms told
us how much they loved receiving diapers.
They're such a huge expense when baby is
small so we weren't surprised!
The 5 Gifts They Wanted to Receive
Only 25% of moms got everything they
wanted when it came to gifts for their
new bundle of joy. So what were they
hoping for but didn't get?
"Gifts for mom" was the clear
winner, with 21.6% of women saying they
would have liked to get something
personal for themselves. After 9 long
months we don't blame them! "A baby
journal" (18.2%),
"personalized/monogrammed
keepsakes" (13.6%) and "nursery
artwork" (13.6%) were also popular
answers.
The 5 Gifts Moms Can Do Without
When asked which gifts they wish they
hadn't of received, the majority of moms
(31.5%) responded that they were happy
with everything they got.
However, 21.7% wish they hadn't of
received of "clothes in newborn
sizes". Most of them said it was
because they had already purchased so
many themselves, and baby outgrows them
so quickly. As one mom put it "I had
a large baby so a lot of the newborn
sizes didn't even fit!"
The rest of the top five included
"nursery decor items" (21.7%),
"bath and skincare products for
baby" (10.9%) and
"personalized/monogrammed
items" (10.9%).
One mom had a good point: "Someone
gave me an outfit for baby to wear home
from hospital. Also, a blanket to come
home from hospital. I didn't like this. I
wanted to choose what my baby came home
in without worry of upsetting
anyone."
Finding the perfect baby gift can be a
daunting task. Hopefully these moms will
give you something to think about next
time you're looking for that something
special.
