Gift’s for Second Time Around Mom

I feel like there are so many baby’s due in 2018.  It just another year of babies.  Everyone that I know who is having a baby in 2018 is having their second, third or even fourth or fifth baby.  Expecting baby number one is so exciting.  Making your registry can be such fun.  Usually, you want to stock up on all the basics that you will need for your first baby.  But what do you buy for an experienced mom?

Personally, as someone shopping for others, I think baby number 2 is a little more fun to shop for.  You don’t have to worry about the basics as much and you can get creative with your gifts.  It’s the perfect opportunity to look into some fun baby/mommy gifts that your second-time mom may not already have.

I’ve put together a list of great baby products that I think would be appropriate for most second-time moms.

One || BirdRock Baby Moccasins
I always think that baby’s look so adorable in little leather moccasins. At only $25 a pair, BirdRock Baby Moccasins are the perfect mix of quality and price for leather moccasins.  They also have cute cozy fleece booties that are perfect for keeping your little one’s tootsies nice and warm in the winter.  If you know someone expecting a little girl, they also have the cutest selection of leather hair bows.

Two|| DockATot
I think that DockATot is a great gift for a second-time mom.  It’s perfect if you plan to co-sleep with your baby.  It’s also a great safe place to put your baby down to lounge around the house away from the big kids.

Three || Newlie Tote Diaper Bag
Who wouldn’t want a new diaper bag?  I know that I stuck with a more traditional diaper bag with Jack.  To be honest, I rarely used it.  I think that a second-time mom would definitely appreciate a new stylish diaper bag.  Something nice and big, because you will need the room once you have 2 or more little ones to pack for.  I love the diaper bags at Newlie co.  They are so stylish and perfect for a second time mom.

Four || CoCo + Kiwi Clutch + Changing Kit

I think any mom would appreciate a cute changing kit clutch like this one from CoCo + Kiwi  (HERE).  I like how convenient it is to just throw a little changing kit in my purse or diaper bag.

Five || Cardimom from Multiwear
 I’ve heard that nursing the second time around is not as easy as you would think it would be as an experienced mom.  The Cardimom can help make nursing a little easier on you.  You can wear it as part of your outfit and when it’s time to feed your baby you just use it as your cover-up.  It’s perfect for nursing in public or if you don’t want to expose yourself to all your family members.

Six || Clothes
Yes, who doesn’t love to pick out cute baby clothes?  It’s so fun shopping for babies.  Clothes are always a good gift for any new parents.  My advice if you’re baby clothes shopping for someone else is to keep in mind the seasons and climate of where they live.  I had a lot of winter clothes for Jack in newborn and 3-month size, but he never got to wear some of them, because it was 80 degrees when he came home from the hospital.  Also, buy clothes in all sizes.  It’s always nice to have a variety of clothes because you will need them.

Seven || Honest Company – Baby Arrival Gift Set
If all else fails, you can always help the second time mom restock on all the baby essentials.  My friend sent me a care package from the Honest Company right after Jack was born and it was so nice to have.  The baby arrival gift set is perfect, because it comes with diapers, wipes, diaper creams and other useful baby products.  Without a shower, a second time mom might be lacking in some of the basics, so this is a great gift!

Hopefully this is helpful guide for everyone needing to buy for a second time mom.  And if your expecting this year, congratulation!
