  Huh? So you want to get her the medicine kit? Pair whatever you want with it. It doesn't have to "match" outside of being for the baby. Don't overthink it - really.

  If you're looking to do a themed basket you could do it like a baby care basket - perhaps the first aid kit, thermoeter, nail clippers, baby shampoo and body wash, rash cream and a nasal aspirator (preferably the nose frida as opposed to a bulb syringe).

  As a pediatrician, I think a greate gift would be the medicine kit, the thermometer and a variety of small bottles of diaper cream. So many babies have such sensitive skin and it seems like all moms register and all friends buy either Desitin and A&D, however there are SUCH better creams out there. And every bsby is different, so its nice to have a variety of creams to sample. I would do a small basket with the kit, the thermometer, and the one tiny container of each of the following: Desitin, Beaudreax Butt Paste, A&D, Triple Paste, and possible either Aveeno Diaper or some more "natural" type of diaper product. Again, they don't have to be huge, maybe just get the smallest size they have so the mom can sample different types without having to run out and buy 6 large bottles that may or may not work.

  I was planning to suggest a baby backseat mirror! But I can see that it's already on the list. Have fun!

  As far as I can remember, diapers, baby wash, baby powder, baby thermometer, baby backseat mirror from https://backseatmirror.net/, clothing, car seats and bibs. So far this are the things that I have remembered.

  This is so open ended. Do you have a budget set? Because I'm sure she would love it if you paired it with the crib & mattress!

  
  

  No, seriously pair it with anything else you want to to meet the budget you have set. I would do a nose frieda and hygeine/care kit (nail clippers, hair brush, etc).

  Well I think you can prepare desserts, cookies and juice. That would surely do if you don't want to spend a lot of money.
