HELP! Gifts for first time mother/father?
In your situation, I think the gift certificate is perfect. If you want to
add a personal touch to it though, you could buy a book and put a little
message in the book. A book like the authentic Mother Goose rhymes or
something like that. A friend of ours bought a hard cover of the original
Curious George book.

A friend of mine recently had his first child (boy). But since I've never
bought gifts for a first time parent and not having children of my own, I'm
at a loss for a proper gift. I was thinking about a gift certificate to a
"baby" store to let them choose what they need/want but was thinking that
they may be too impersonal. What is more troublesome is that I'm unable to
discern what they already have from other friends (unable to talk/visit him
to ascertain this).
What are your suggestions for "must-have", "couldn't-live-without" type
gifts? Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance!
