As I expect my 4th bundle of joy I am happy to say that I have become kind of an expert when it comes to baby shower must-haves and on this post you will find good quality affordable baby items that will make the soon-to-be-mom happy!
You will find tons of items that claim to be the baby shower must-haves every mom should have. To be honest don’t believe the hypes and stick to what the mom and baby will actually need.
A great baby shower gift should reflect what the mother and baby need for this reason it is important to look at their baby registry and see what items they need.
I truly love baby registries because it gives me an inside peak of what mom and baby are going to need. However, if looking for good quality and affordable baby shower items is what you are looking for then I have the list for you.
Affordable Baby Shower Must-Haves No One Told You About
Baby bottles
This is something that quite honestly is needed for just about any baby shower registry. Always remember to find a good quality and safe product for the baby.
Bottle-cleaning brush or a dishwasher basket
Parents are going to need this to keep their bottle clean and sanitize.
Breast milk bag storage
If you know that the mom is going to breastfeed, breast milk bag storages will be a winner!
Diapers
Everyone needs diaper and a great diaper cake will be so much to add to the baby shower.
- Bath necessities
- Creating a wonderful bath basket using an infant tub is a great way idea. Items like:
- Hooded towels
- Washcloths

- Baby comb and brush sets
These are some of the items you can add to create a much appreciated gift.

Dreft “Baby Shower” Giveaway
To celebrate Sean and Catherine Lowes’ parenting journey and celebration Dreft is hosting a giveaway for this Dreft “Baby Shower” Package (ARV $75) that I received in the mail, which will include:
- Dreft product (Newborn, Active Baby, & Blissfuls)
- Little Me Welcome to the World Bib and Burp Set
- Little Me Giraffe Gown
- Gender Neutral Lovey
One tip when it comes to diapers is to consider getting a bigger size. Our first actually grew out of newborn size rather quickly. While I think we were able to take some of the unopened stock to the store and exchange them, it would have been nice to have those bigger ones on hand from the get-go.
I used Dreft with all 4 of my kiddos! I didn’t know they had the active detergent…that is an awesome addition to their line!
