Gifts for a Baby
A baby present is really for the parents, and they are the ones who will find a place for it. These lists keep to two kinds of gift: something useful in the first months and something to keep for later.

Before you choose
What do new parents still need after everyone has given them something?
Small things that wear out or go missing: muslins, a comforter, a first book. Leave the pram and the cot to the parents, who will want to choose those themselves.
What is the difference between a new baby gift and a christening gift?
A new baby gift helps this month. A christening gift is kept: something with the name or the date on it, a keepsake box, or a book for when the child is older.
Should you ask the parents before you buy?
If you're close to them, yes: ask what they're short of. If you're not, choose something that doesn't depend on a size or a season.
