Also, I always include a gift especially for mom; maybe a home spa kit, aromatherapy candles, pedicure set or the like. Everyone is oohing and aahhhing over the baby (and rightfully so!); however, they forget that she's the one who's been carting it around for nine months and will likely be up all night for a number of weeks. The moms always seemed touched that I had specifically thought of *them*.

When I was young, I used to go to tons of Baby showers with my mom. What teenage girl doesn't like babies?
My mom always used to bring similar gifts. I have followed in her wise ways. If the mother to be is asking for diapers, I buy the size they need, but a size up too for the same reason as the clothes.
