You always seem to get the same ol’ traditional baby gifts like a diaper bag, baby clothes, bottles and pacifiers, that, don’t get me wrong, ARE nice to get. But instead of searching the mom-to-be’s baby shower gift list, why not think outside of the box and get a gift that will make mom’s life SO much easier. Saving Mamasita rounded up 5 baby gifts that you probably never would have thought of had you not visited us here. We have tried these gifts for ourselves and oh how they have been LIFE savers.
1. Diaper Clutch: $16.99
When my little Lola was an infant, I used a diaper bag, however that dang thing became a pain in my behind. Not only did I forget my purse sometimes when I had my diaper bag in tow, I often times threw the extra diapers in my purse, which would then sometimes be all crinkled and ruined by the time I needed them. So, mamas and papas, I introduce to you…the trendy and very convenient diaper clutch.
Keep your diapers and wipes organized with a grey chevron diaper clutch from Rilos & MiMi. A diaper clutch is a great baby accessory for any parent. A diaper clutch keeps diapers and wipes organized in your purse, back pack, or vehicle. Each diaper clutch fits almost every type of travel wipes case (The Honest Company, Pampers, Parent’s Choice, and more), 2-3 diapers up to size 6 or pull ups. There is even room for diaper rash cream when using smaller diapers.
What makes this diaper clutch great?
The open window in wipe case pocket makes you able to grab the wipes without having to take the case out, while the velcro strap makes for easy one handed opening and closing which is important to parents of small children. The clutch allows you to quickly grab and go with one hand to the restroom and change your baby. No worrying about dropping the diaper or wipes when carrying your child.
Don’t you just LOVE this chevron pattern? I actually feel like a cool mom carrying this around!

2. Baby Towel: $39.99
This is not just any baby towel though. This towel is so big that it will wrap completely around your little one. This is such an adorable hooded blue chevron hooded monster bath towel that is so soft and warm that little ones love being bundled up in it. Each towel is made with new material only. The base of the towel is very soft flannel and fleece, the eyes and teeth are 100% flannel. The spikes are fleece. The towel portion is an expensive, very soft 100% cotton towel.

3. Pacifier Clip: $8.99
You never really think of these things until you actually have a baby. I remember buying numerous pacifiers because we would always, always, ALWAYS lose the dang things. That is why this is genius. A pacifier clip can be attached to bibs, clothing, car seat, high chair, or stroller.
Order your pacifier clip here at Rilos and Mimi.
4. Chevron Laminate Pocket Bib with Terry Cloth Backing: $12.99
I don’t know about you but my kids STILL should be wearing these when they eat, especially my 8-year-old. Keep your kiddos clean with this fun, trendy, and practical laminate pocket bib. The terry cloth backing means that once finished wearing AND use it as a rag to wash up!

You know, that darn binky clip was a lifesaver. I tell EVERYONE who is a first time mom or dad to invest in one or two. I has saved me so many binkies (once I got savvy to them). And the hand held diaper clutch…OMG! In my purse or smaller bag. LIFE ALTERING BAG! This is post is amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Where was all this cool stuff when my son was born.
Swaddle Blankets!!!! Really nice and big and stretchy swaddle blankets. Moms just don’t understand until they have had kids that can’t sleep without being swaddled.
Great gifts! Perfect gifts and I would give them all! My faves are the chevrons!
Anything that makes a new mom’s life easier is so important and convenient. These are some great products.
Those gifts are all adorable! I love the towels but, boy, would that binky holder have come in handy when my son was little!
Chevron seem to be the in thing these days and I’m loving the prints on these. Great list of products as well.
Cute and stylish gifts for mom. I also love the chevron print too.
Those are some awesome products. I am all for anything to make my life easier.
Pacifier Clip is perfect for my daughter. Great list. Thank you for sharing!
Great ideas! I LOVE that diaper clutch! Sometimes the bag is inconveniently bulky 🙁
I had a lot of those when my kids were babies and YES they were SO helpful!
How cute are these? A Paci clip is a MUST!
I officially have baby fever! So ADORBS!
I love the Chevron pattern on the different items. The pacifier clip would be so helpful. Not only helpful but for sanitary, lol. These are all great gift ideas.
These are such cute ideas! The diaper clutch matches my daughter’s diaper bag may have to spring for that one! Now I just found out my bestie is pregnant after trying for 10 years! Babies everywhere!
I did have everything on this list but I did not have a diaper clutch look at how cute that thing is and oh I’m torn on the diaper bag being gone I had a really nice one and I loved it. I have yet to find a purse large enough to carry all of our crap in it lol maybe I need to down grade my purse ?
What awesome new things they have for babies and mommies these days. Why didn’t they come up with these cute products when my girls were little.
Thanks for sharing this one up – I totally don’t have any idea what to give for new moms there.
Love the diaper clutch and the chevron bibs! Will forward this post to my best friend who is pregnant right now!
Those are all great gift ideas! I love that they are fashionable and cute.
I do love the chevron diaper clutch. By my 2nd kid, I had pretty much narrowed it down to one bag which was my purse anyway.
Those are some great picks. I really love that hooded towel.
I love the baby towel! Truth is that if it is convenient for mom it is a go!
I like the camo set. My son is in the military, this would have been cute to gift him and his wife when they had their little one. 🙂
I would’ve loved the diaper clutch. To this day, I prefer to use my purse with a couple of diapers. Great list.
I love those hooded towels. Both of my kids had them. They are so cute.
that baby towel is beyond cute. love it!
They are all so cute! But I especially love the baby towel! x
These are really adorable. I would have loved to get any of these!
The clutch is so important. I used to use mine to go out, haha, because it was so darn cute
What some great ideas – the baby towel is so very cute as well. x
Wow these are amazing ideas, I love the baby towel looks cute.
I know some people who could benefit from the diaper clutch. What a great gift idea!
I like practical gifts that mom could really use! These are all great ideas!
IT is good to have items that are USEFUL. SOmetimes we get too much extra that aren’t usable.
Pacifier clips are awesome! One of my 5 constantly used his binky, and I always worried about losing it.
Pacifier clips saved me from so many lost and dirty pacifiers. Nice list.
I love all of these, especially the towel and the bibs.
I always give parenting books and swaddling blankets….people forget about how to care for the baby. Nice to meet you through mom it forward!
That towel is so cute!
