By the time you’re on your 3rd baby, you’ve been to enough baby showers and baby sprinkles to know that what mom really wants is something she can actually use. Gifting clothing is dicey because what one thinks is adorable, another wouldn’t dream of putting on her kid. Even if it’s just not as much fun to buy, gifting something useful is 100% the way to go when getting a baby shower present.
One thing no family can have too many of is diapers – and diaper cream. The best, hands down, is Desitin. There are two varieties you need to know about:
- Rapid Relief – helps prevent diaper rash, so perfect for putting on after every diaper change, especially when you put baby down for the night. Here are some tips on how to prevent diaper rash.
- Maximum Strength Original Paste – has the highest level of Zinc Oxide available without a prescription, so it’s REALLY good at treating diaper rash and getting red booties healed up ASAP. Here are some tips on treating a diaper rash.
Here’s an easy, modern baby shower gift you can put together in less than 15 minutes:


This little diaper pail makes a great baby shower gift but would also be SO cute as a centerpiece or as decor for a baby shower or baby sprinkle. The mom-to-be just picks it up and takes it home!
