Baby Gift Ideas for a Newborn in Pakistan

In Pakistan a new baby means visitors. Relatives come to see the baby in the first weeks, there may be an aqiqa, and more families now hold a baby shower before the birth. Clothes and toys are the usual gifts, and new parents often end up with more than they can use. A practical gift that gets used every day is often the one they remember. Here are ideas, grouped by what new parents actually reach for.

What new parents use in the first months

In the first months, a baby's day revolves around feeding, sleeping, changing and cleaning. Gifts that help with those routines are always useful:

• feeders, and the brushes and spare nipples that go with them
• teethers, for a little later
• pacifiers and a pacifier chain, if the family uses them
• a grooming kit with baby-sized scissors, clippers and a comb
• baby wipes

If you can, ask the parents quietly what they already have. Families often have strong preferences, for example glass or PPSU feeders, or a particular neck size.

Feeders and feeder sets as gifts

Feeders are one of the most practical gifts, because most families use more than one. Small feeders in 60ml and 120ml suit the newborn stage. Our glass feeders with silicone sleeves come in cheerful designs such as teddy bear, car and plane, and the Teddy Bear Glass Feeder & Rattle Cup has a clear cap with colourful rattle beads, which makes it look like a present before it is even unwrapped. Parents who prefer a lighter feeder may like a PPSU feeder.

To make a small set, pair one or two feeders with a bottle cleaning brush or a pack of spare nipples. Check the neck size so the nipples fit the feeder you are giving.

For a family that already has feeders, think ahead: a straw feeder or a sipper cup will be useful once the baby is older.

Teethers, pacifiers and grooming kits

Teethers. Our silicone teethers come in shapes small hands can hold, such as duck, dino, croc, panda, car and fruit. They are a nice addition to a larger gift, and the family will put them to use a few months later.

Pacifiers. Some families use pacifiers and some do not, so ask first. If they do, a silicone pacifier with a hygiene cap, or the Herobility HeroPacifier 2-pack, together with a pacifier chain, makes a useful pair. See all pacifiers and soothers.

Grooming kits. Baby nails grow quickly and are hard to trim with adult scissors. A baby grooming kit such as the 6-piece My First Baby Care Set (brush, comb, rounded-tip scissors, nail clipper, nail file and nose cleaner) or the Y022 manicure kit is small, useful and comes in its own box or case.

Ready-made gift boxes

If you would rather not choose item by item, look at our gift boxes. The product page of the Baby Gift Box lists exactly what is inside, so you know what the family will receive. A gift box is an easy choice for a baby shower, where you may not know the parents' preferences yet.

Something for the older sibling or the parents

A new baby often has a brother or sister who feels a little left out. A steel water bottle or a stainless steel lunch box for school is a thoughtful extra. For parents, an insulated flask is useful for late-night tea and long hospital days.

Ordering online and delivery

You can order online and pay cash on delivery anywhere in Pakistan. If the gift is going to someone else's address, remember that cash on delivery is paid by whoever receives the parcel. Our shipping policy explains how long delivery usually takes, so order in good time if the gift is for a particular day. If you are unsure which feeder size or colour to choose, message us on WhatsApp before you order.
