Best Gifts for a Newborn Baby

After having three newborns in my house, I’ve come to learn which products are helpful to have around the house (and which products we’ll actually use). As a veteran mom, I’ve pulled some of my favorite gifts for newborn babies. But don’t forget, parents always need a little love, too! Coffee and a warm meal are always welcome.
