We asked moms to reveal the strangest gift they received at their baby shower. Spoiler alert: Some people truly have a warped sense of what new moms need!
- “I received a denture ice cube tray.”
- “A placenta recipe book.”
- “A girdle for after the birth, from my grandmother.” More From The Stir: 29 Weird & Creepy Baby Shower Cakes for Boys
- “When our first child was born, my husband’s aunt sent us a whole box of old, dirty and stained baby clothes she bought at garage sales. She was also kind enough to put an article about SIDS with it.”
- “At my second son’s baby shower I received a gift bag from my mother-in-law with a dozen girl onesies and two packs of baby head wraps decorated with flowers and bows. The invitation sent out was a blue baby bootie with “it’s a boy!” printed on it. The invite also included blue baby confetti and baby’s name.”
- “Strawberry Flavored Nipple Butter. Apparently, they thought it was for breast feeding.”
- “A Chuck E. Cheese gift card. Like I’m going to take my newborn to Chuck E. Cheese.”
- “I received a baseball cap with lights on the front of it from my grandmother. Her reasoning? I’d need something so I could see during midnight diaper changes!”
- “An open can of formula. She said her baby was allergic, and she didn’t want it to go to waste!”
- “A car seat from the 1980s and an expired jar of baby food from my psychotic ex-sister-in-law.”
- “A big box of condoms.” More From The Stir: 17 Creative Baby Shower Themes
- “Expired formula. One, I had made it very clear I was breastfeeding; and two, my daughter was born in 2009, the formula had expired in 2003.”
- “An obviously used picture frame and a pair of used, size 2T girls jeans. I was having a boy and everyone knew it.”
- “A gift card to DEB, where I don’t shop. It was from my sister who told me, ‘It’s for when you’re not fat anymore.’”
- “I got a used manual breast pump from a female coworker of my husband’s … cheap and gross!” What’s the weirdest baby shower gift you received? © Kevin Dodge/Corbis
