Some gifts that the baby's grandparents could possibly give would be a crib, for the baby's first couple of years of his/her life. Another gift along the same lines is a set for the crib, the sheet set, bumper pads and cover. Of course you will need to know the colors the parents have chosen for the baby's room first. What about having a special rocking horse that you have made, or purchase one specially for this baby, with their initials engraved on it.
If you know someone who could make a quilt for this little bundle of joy, this would be a very special gift, done in the colors of the room again. Gifts which are homemade always have more meaning for the new mother, so what about attending a craft sale in your neighborhood, where you might be able to buy that unusual gift you are looking for, or if you are so inclined and crafty, maybe you could make it yourself. That would even have more meaning for the mother and later on, the baby too.
A gift basket would fill all the needs for the baby, all contained in one package. It might contain a set of bibs, a towel and wash cloth set, a rattle, some powder, baby soap, shampoo and a small teddy bear. Another one could have some specialty diapers or enough disposable diapers to last for any given amount of time. Maybe a gift certificate for a diaper service, would be a good gift, if the mother prefers to have cloth diapers. If she chooses to wash her own diapers, then a diaper pail filled with diapers could be the best gift she could receive.
Educational toys are always a wonderful idea for new babies, also toys to help their motor skills and eye-hand coordination. There are so many baby toys on the market today, that it is very difficult to choose. Think of toys which will last them for more than a couple of months of their lives. A cute fuzzy teddy bear is always a favorite for babies, one big enough for them to enjoy when they grow a little bigger.
Some parents are going back to the carriages which were used a few years ago, and this would be a great gift for a few friends to go together to buy for the baby. They are so comfortable, and the baby will have a wonderful sleep when walked in a pram. If the mother would prefer, a good stroller would be a gift which will be used for a long time.
