Christmas pressies for new dads

chubbin · Dec 4th, 2009, 02:20 AM

Hi,
Has anyone got any good ideas for a christmas present/stocking filler for their OHs, relating to babies of course. In particular, Im looking for ideas for a first time dad. Something original or quirky would be especially good. I have a limit of 20 quid. Thanks in advance xx

Not particularly original - but I Sainsburys have got some very cute little tops with 'the best daddy in the world' written on them... they are only £2.50 x

I got my fiance a little plaque (sp) with "Anyone can be a Father but it takes someone really special to be a Daddy" engraved on it with little foot prints.....super cute!

getting a wrap carrier is supposed to be really good to help dads bond with newborns and encourage them to carry the baby, do skin to skin contact and allow the baby to hear thier heartbeat!

If its for you look up 'moby wrap' 'calien bleu' and 'close' baby carrier etc. I've got my hubby one in black.

I have ordered a pack of 2 bibs from OH football team website, Spurs. So they are really just practical presents as he won't use them but he will love the fact they were Spurs. They were £8 for pack of 2.

I just went on www.kodak.com and went to gift ideas.
You can get a snow globe for 5.99 and upload your scan pic into it. It looks wicked! I can't wait till it arrives.

EDIT:

Here's the link.

You can get some great cufflinks ... if your OH wears them. with daddy to be etc.
Or there are also some adorable daddy T-shirts and babygrows that match... if you know the colour of your bump!!
Let us know if you get any good ideas.
