Most of us have unwrapped something we didn’t really want or appreciate on a holiday or birthday, but those aren’t the only occasions people can be bad gift givers. A Redditor asked the Baby Bumps section, “What is the worst baby shower gift you received?” And the user kicked things off by sharing that they recently received an activity book for seven to 11 year olds … for their newborn. And that one wasn’t so bad compared to some of these responses.
- “First baby … A card from my sister-in-law pretty much saying I’m not ready to be a parent and that she hopes I ‘don’t damage the child.’”
- “I’m all for hand-me-downs, but not open containers of baby powder and butt cream that are half used as a present … and it was packed in a dirty, used diaper backpack.”
- “My grandma got me a can of beans and canned enchilada sauce.”
- “A gift set of baby medicine that all expired before she was born. They said ‘The U.S. takes expiration dates so seriously.’”
- “A onesie that says ‘every dog needs a baby’ and I have two cats. Zero dogs.”
- “My husband’s family thought it would be funny to give me a box of condoms, this was a shower for our second son. I was NOT pleased as a 38week pregnant woman.”
- “A pink Sonicare electric toothbrush, for my newborn son”
- “An embroidered blanket set with "Winston" all over it. Our son’s name is Weston”
- “Some cheap lingerie and sexy time lotion”
- “I received a onesie that says “daddy’s little squirt” with a picture of a sperm on it. That one went in the Goodwill pile immediately.”
