Suggestions for best shower gift for mom of multiples

Hello.  I love to get things that a mom will really need.  I have a friend who is pregnant with triplets.  There are a few of us going in on a gift.  Should we get three of something or one something that is more expensive?  What is the most needed item(s) for multiples?  TIA!

    My best suggestion is, buy off from the registry.  Although clothes or other items are cute, the registry typically lists out the things that they need the most.  From there, you can pick what you want to get.

    Also, diapers.  I would suggest getting diapers and wipes for the new family.

     HTH

    Maybe all 3 of you could go in on a co-sleeper type bed that all 3 of them can sleep in next to mom and dad for the first few months.

    I loved my vented sleep positioners too. Depends on how much you want to spend, diapers are always needed. Maybe 3 bouncy/vibrating seats. Or you could always get her a gift certificate that she can use towards her big ticket items off her registry.

    buy from the registry for sure.... and maybe get some clothing that matches in BIGGER sizes- like 9mos... since most of the matchy stuff they get will be in small sizes - later when people stop giving gifts it will be nice to have something for them.... this goes for all babies- not just multiples :)

    I agree with pp.  I would buy off the registry and if a few of you want to go in on a gift its always nice to have the "big ticket" items purchased.

    Registry for sure!  Three of my friends went together on one of our carseats and it was great to get one of our big ticket items that we will need for sure.

    I would def. buy off the registry.  My favorite baby related item is actually my hand held dust buster!  It's great for cleaning up after snack and meal times.  DS and DD love to be "vacuumed" off!  I swear that for the next baby shower I go to, that's what I'm going to give as a gift.
