that's what i do too, if i buy clothes.
in the past i have made baskets that held things a new mother might not think about, but might need at a moments notice:
orajel
baby tylenol(or whatever pediatricians recommend now)
diaper rash cream
cortisone cream
mylicon drops(both my kids were colicky and this was a Godsend)
diaper pins
q-tips
one of those things that suck the mucus out of baby's nose(can't remember the name)
set of baby shampoo, soap and lotion
travel set of wipes
leash for pacifier
rattle
i decorate the basket with paint, lace and ribbon. a thoughtful party goer gave this to me when i was expecting my first baby and it was the most useful gift i got.
