When a new baby arrives, the household is in controlled chaos. The best gifts either help the parents survive the early weeks or give them something beautiful to mark the occasion.
The best gifts are for the parents, not just the baby
Babies have no preferences. Parents do. A gift that acknowledges them — their exhaustion, their joy, their need for sustenance — will always be more appreciated than another onesie.
