(ARA) - On average, eight babies are born every minute in the United States. It's only a matter of time before you are invited to the next baby shower. While most shower attendees will opt for the typical (and often costly) shower gift like a trendy baby outfit or rattle, why not arm a new mom with the elements she'll appreciate most when baby arrives? Here is a list of less-than-expected but affordable gift ideas for the new parents in your life: * Closeness: A soft baby carrier is a great way for mom to keep baby close while leaving her hands free. Available in a variety of colors and designs, soft-carriers are great for parents on the go. * Zen: Give the gift of relaxation. After a day with baby, yoga is a great way to unwind. Arm mom with a yoga mat and a book of post-natal poses. * Purity: For the little one's sensitive skin, look for special made-for-baby laundry detergents that are perfume- and dye-free and hypoallergenic. * Peace: Offer your new mom a handy list of baby-friendly family and friends to lend an extra set of hands when new parents need a break from baby. * Convenience: For moms who are breastfeeding, time away from the baby might seem impossible. The Evenflo Comfort Select Performance Breast Pump is easy to use, lightweight, comfortable and ideal for occasional pumping, giving moms the flexibility to enjoy much-needed "me time." Evenflo Comfort Select Performance is available from retailers nationwide, including Wal-Mart. For more product information or a complete listing of retailers, visit www.evenflo.com.
