As a mom, no need to bring gifts to gender reveal. If you are bringing in lieu of baby shower, pleaseeeee buy off registry. I got so much “yay this is fun for baby” that I didn’t need.
If you must go off registry, a cute sentimental childhood book with a note to baby is sweet + gift cards for food

For my cousin we did baby/children's books instead of cards and wrote an inscription in the book and then got them stuff off the registry!

Do people bring gifts to a gender reveal?? I thought gifts were saved for baby showers and to get stuff off the baby registry. If you do want to go for a gift regardless, artifact uprising makes beautiful gender neutral baby scrapbooks.
Maybe bring something for her to enjoy her pregnancy a bit or something to signify how excited you are to meet and love this baby. They’re kind of cheesy but maybe a onesie with something about having an aunt could be cute. I had an unplanned baby and what means the most is having people around who are welcoming and care about my baby too! Congratulations to her and you sound like a good friend!

Are gifts expected? I would just bring flowers if you wanted to bring something.
There's going to be a baby shower too
Assuming there is no registry, get a gift card to buybuybaby or babies r us.
If you want it to be for the mom, get a gift card for prenatal RMT massage(s) at a reputed spa. Those are much needed throughout pregnancy, and esp as she starts getting bigger.
My BFF got a gift for me. A Tiffany bracelet and a matching necklace for her. It was the most thoughtful wonderful special thing for her to do that.
In a moment when everyone only thinks about the baby and you are just a carrier, grower, and feeder machine for the baby, when all your hopes, dreams and plans are coming to a grinding halt as this new life path begins - it was beautiful to know that I still mattered as a person.
I don't wear bracelets. I don't wear silver color jewelry (doesn't go with my skin tone) but I will cherish it forever.
Wow I love this thank you for sharing!
Children’s books to start a collection.
