When new parents have a baby, there’s suddenly a long list of baby products they will need. When buying a gift for a new baby, it’s a good idea to buy something useful that the baby and new parents will get good use of. Ask them what they really need. This will be so appreciated and really help a young family starting out.
Take a look at our baby essentials gift guide for ideas:
Philips Avent Anti-colic Airfree Baby Bottle Anti-Colic
If the baby’s mother is breastfeeding and expressing or is unable to breastfeed their baby, they will need lots of baby bottles. We found Philips Avent Anti-colic Airfree baby bottles were the best (seeing these bring back so many memories). Its teat has a special shape to mimic the nipple and offer a feeling of comfort which encourages good feeding.
Characteristics:
- silicone teat
- ventilated bottom – helps reduce the risk of a colic
- promotes calm and relaxed drinking
- wide neck for easy filling and cleaning
- helps promote active suction reflex just like during nursing
Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle Teat
Of course, teats are essential when bottle feeding. We bought a variety of different Philips Avent Natural baby bottle teats as it’s important to find the one that’s the perfect flow for the baby. Their teats are exceptionally soft and accurately mimic the breast. Its flexible spiral construction, comfort petals and natural shape of the nipple encourage your baby to latch on. The anti-colic valve keeps the air inside the bottle, preventing it from entering the baby’s stomach. These teats give your baby the most natural feeding experience and ease the transition from breast to bottle.
Characteristics:
- its shape and exceptionally soft texture mimic the breast
- allows for natural latching thanks to a wide breast-shaped nipple
- for an easier transition from breastfeeding to bottle-feeding or a combination of both
- reduces the risk of colic and discomfort
- ideal flow rate for babies from three months of age
Ingredients:
- silicone
- BPA-free

A Note on Gift Guides
Traditionally, Christmas is a gift-giving season. Therefore you will be seeing a number of gift guides online during this time. I publish these gift guides for inspiration. Please remember though, only buy presents if you can afford them. Never feel bad for not being able to buy presents. The saying “presence over presents” is so true.
