We are doing nothing from ourselves. Because he has a brother so we have all the toys and clothes! I also think they don’t have a clue what day it is. We’ve told family that if they want to get something they can for either their house or put money in their premium bonds account.

Ours is getting a few, but they are not all exactly presents. Like, there's 2 wrapped boxes that are just new bottles (apparently you're supposed to change them every few months). And there are a couple of bags that are stuff that friends bought for him and we put them under the tree. The only actual Xmas presents from us are a playpen and some sensory cubes.

Wrapping up anything I would have bought anyway. Clothes Teething toys Couple of Sensory toys Weaning bits

@Kyhane We are doing pretty much the same. Next year will probably be a bit different, but this year just 1 gift and everything else is pretty much stuff we needed anyway for the baby. Friends also brought stuff that we needed so works perfectly.

Few toys to open but mainly clothing for the next sizes up and weaning stuff (chair, bibs, cups etc)

We've bought mostly clothes in the next 2 sizes and sensory toys

We’re not buying our July baby anything. She will get presents from family, and she won’t know any different this year. We are getting our toddler a couple of things but not much - again, he will get plenty from family. We prefer experiences over stuff and are consciously trying to have less clutter around the house, so we just get a couple of token gifts from us.

0 - or we might wrap up one of his existing toys so he can play with the paper or something. he has no idea what’s going on!

honestly i just ordered a few small bits on tiktok shop, she’s too young to even notice this year and also money is tight but main reason being we live at my partners mums right now so don’t have a lot of space, im sure she will get other little bits from the rest of the family too xx

Because she doesn’t know what’s going on, we’ve just got a small keep sake (same as we did for older sibling) then bought things she actually needs like weaning equipment and a highchair.. x
