Sure, there’s always a need for newborn-size diapers and tiny, soft onesies. But when your favorite mom-to-be (or dad-to-be) is expecting a baby, sometimes you just want to get them the most meaningful, thoughtful gift you can imagine. That’s why we’ve come up with our favorite unique gifts for baby showers—or any time you want to celebrate the new parents.

For Your Always-On-The-Go Friend

An effortless, minimal piece will fit into her fast-paced lifestyle and be simple enough for everyday wear. The Peace Symbol Pendant Necklace in sterling silver will remind her to take a moment for a bit of Zen in the midst of the crazy. Or gift a beautiful reminder of how the stars aligned to bring the parents-to-be to this moment, with a customized Zodiac Pendant Necklace featuring baby’s sign or parents and baby’s sign.

For Your Warm and Funny Sister

She’s your partner in crime and your best friend—and she’s starting a new chapter, whether this is her first baby or her third. Show her how much she means to you with a personalized pendant necklace that captures her big heart. Whether that’s combining her initials and her upcoming baby’s (if she’s dished on the name!), or finding a symbol that will continue to be part of her identity after the baby is born, use our Necklace Builder to send your meaningful message. Stumped on the perfect combo? Try a classic by combining two M Pendants with our HEART Pendant in the middle to spell out “MOM.”

For Your Partner, Who Has Your Heart

You wouldn’t want to go on the wild adventure of parenting with anyone else, so a meaningful gift that symbolizes your milestones as a couple is a must. Our Birthstone Pendants (which can be found in our Hidden Message Components Gemstones section) are a sweet, intimate way to celebrate special dates, like the month you met, the month you got married, and the month the baby will be born.

For Your Daughter, Now a Mama Herself

She’ll always be your baby, and now she’s having a sweet little one of her own. Celebrate the bond between a mother and child with a personalized pendant necklace. Try combinations like “MAMA” or “XOXO” using our Initial Pendants, or our HEART Pendant and a U Pendant to remind her she’s always loved with our best-selling 'LOVE U' necklace.

For a Devoted New Dad  

New moms rightfully get most of the attention at the baby shower, but it’s ok to spoil dad as well! He’ll be a lifelong grounding presence for this new child, so gift him an understated pendant necklace with a hidden symbol that represents just that, the ANCHOR necklace.
