Unless you’ve had a baby yourself, it’s hard to know what to buy new parents for their newborn. Even first-time parents have little, if any, idea of what they actually need. So, they mostly fill their registries with items they think they might want or use. Unfortunately, a couple years later, those unused baby shower gifts are often donated to charity in brand-new condition. Save your hard-earned money or at least spend it wisely. Listed below are 15 practical, economical and useful gifts for newborns.
