As soon as you see that blue line you almost immediately start to question is it a Boy or girl? Then comes the next question what shall I call him/her?

Although it is fun to randomly pick names and see whether you both agree, when it comes to the last few weeks of pregnancy and you haven’t chosen yet it becomes a different matter all together!

I am of course speaking from experience having been there myself! In the last 6 months of my pregnancy both my husband and I not knowing what our baby’s sex was and completely disagreeing on each other’s name suggestions, decided the fairest way was that I chose the girls name if we had a girl and he in turn chose the boys name if he was a boy.

Of course I gave birth to a boy!  We named him Harry (my husband’s choice) I looked at my new baby and to me he didn’t look like a Harry one bit, however we agreed to keep it using the name I chose as his middle name.

Five years later on and he couldn’t look any more like a Harry if he tried!

My friend has recently had a baby as usual she was inundated with gifts baby-grows, keepsakes and teddies to name just a few, after speaking to her about everything she had, she told me of one particular gift she thought was really unique it was a photograph session at a local photographers.

It was a session booked and payed for spread out over 8 months, to watch her baby grow in the photographs. Every 2 months she would take her baby to the photographers all dressed up ready to have his picture taken and received the photograph shortly afterwards.

If you are struggling for a unique meaningful gift for a special person I would definitely recommend this.

When I started to wean my little boy onto real food I decided that it was best for him if I made the food myself that way I knew exactly what was going in.

I was then able to be creative and make lots of different recipes for him, such as cauliflower cheese, butter nut squash and carrot, all sorts of tasty meals for him, there was only one problem, How was I going to keep it all fresh? The answer? Ice cube trays!

I made a big batch of food then poured into ice-cube trays ready to freeze, when needed I simply popped a cube out heated and it was ready to go!

Want to find the perfect organic “green gift” for your baby?

How about a gift set containing Organic Eco Friendly baby wash, baby shampoo and baby bath, or organic cotton baby toys and outfits you just can not resist.  There are blankets and nappy bags, books and chocolates.

If you are looking for the perfect gift for friends or family, Organic gifts are a real treat.  Not only are they chemical free but they are all completely natural products.

I recently bought a gorgeous pink gift set online for a friends baby girl containing soap, baby bath, shampoo, flannel and baby lotion all 100 percent organic and all 100 percent natural.

A friend of mine lives in a very small house near the centre of town, with two young children. Unfortunately within her bathroom she only has room for a shower, and not a bath. She was telling me the other day how nice it would be to be able to let them enjoy a hot bath instead of leaping in and out of the shower everyday, which as you can imagine is probably very messy!

Consequently I have been searching online, and found that there are products out there which have been invented to help people, who do not have bathing facilities to make their shower in to a baby bath! Have a look for yoursleves!

I am sure every parent can relate to how difficult it is to keep your children engaged at lunch times. If like me you have tried every trick in the book, for example novelty plates and cutlery then I would recommend purchasing some pop up placemats!

They are really sweet, and the kids think it is really great to have a paper character keeping them company at meal times. Some of them come with stickers, so you can dress the characters in different clothes and gives them different expressions. Hours of fun will be had and meal times will seem less of a chore!

I still believe it is the one of the best and certainly one of the most traditional baby products you can give a new born baby. A baby blanket is something which has a practical use for the parent when the child is young, and it can also be put away as a keep sake for when the child grows up. You do not have to spend a fortune, there are plenty of affordable options which are ideal for all occasions. For use in the cot or a pram, they can be taken anywhere and the majority are machine washable.

Another one of my friends has recently given birth, and once again I had the task of buying her a present. As I have mentioned several times, there are loads of great gifts available. One in particular which caught my eye has been a baby photo frame imprint kit. It comes with everything you need to make a unique and personal reminder of the childs early years which you can treasure forever. The clay used is very soft and having tried it myself, it is very easy to get a lovely imprint of your childs foot without too much hassle. Its a bit of fun too!

When I first think of a present for a baby, the last thing which springs to mind is baby jewellery. I think it is because they are so small I would not have thought parents would want young children wearing jewellery. However, having looked on line, it appears baby jewellery is actually quite popular and there are lots of it available, in many different varieties. You can purchase necklaces, bracelets, bangles and beads! Practically anything you could think of!  So if you are thinking of getting an extra special baby gift, I would certainly consider looking around and picking something a little different.
