LITTLE ones come with big costs for family and friends.
And as we move into baby shower season, gift prices for mums-to-be are rising.

Kylie Jenner recently announced the birth of baby Wolf — and revealed the designer pressies she received from her celeb mates.
Here’s how to gift A-list style on a Z-list budget . . .
CHANGE IT UP: Celebs love a designer bag or two and it’s no different when it comes to baby-changing bags. Kylie was gifted a monogrammed Dior version, which costs £2,400. Harrods does a Gucci version for £885. But if that’s not your local shop, check out the Flex baby bag from Amazon. The monogram flap has some similarities to Kylie’s, but it is only £19.99.
PUSH AHEAD: Most mums like to find their own pram or buggy, but not the A-listers. Kylie’s Dior buggy is an eye-watering £3,600, so forget that. But if you really want to gift a buggy, try the Push Me Quatro Humbug for £57 from redkitebaby.co.uk (suitable from newborn). You could also add River Island’s designer-looking monogrammed baby blanket, £20.
TIFFANY WHO? At Kylie’s baby shower, there was an abundance of turquoise Tiffany bags. Honestly, how much silver does a baby really need? Still, if you do want to give a traditional gift, like a silver baby brush, maybe avoid the £415 Tiffany option. Instead, head to Etsy, which has lots of affordable ideas. I like the CarriageTradeCompany, which sells personalised silver-plated baby comb and brush sets for £28.50.
BATHTIME BABES: If you were thinking about splashing out on bathtime baby products, avoid the Kylie Baby toiletries set at a whopping £57. Instead, you could gift the Child Farm baby bath & bedtime suitcase gift set (filled with four products and a handy bath thermometer) for £24 from Sainsbury’s. Another idea is the Aveeno Baby essentials bundle from Boots at £11.99 — it saves you £2.19 compared to buying the products separately.
