Fit to Burst With Pride    Marking the Moment    Spoil Him    Keeping Up With Tradition 

WETTING THE BABY'S HEAD

 So, the waiting is over, the 9 months are up and baby is here! These will be exciting, exhilarating and exhausting times, but definitely worth taking a few moments to mark this change in your lives! These are our suggestions for new dad gifts, to mark this change in status to Daddy, or perhaps adding to his existing brood!

Fit to Burst with Pride

Daddy's Boasting Book 

Everyone will want to get a glimpse of the baby, so how about treating him to a Boasting Book? Easy to carry around and just enough pictures for everyone to coo appreciatively.

Pint and Half Pint new dad tshirt

We love these tshirts from Urchin, and think they make a great present for the new dad. Cute without being cutesy! Perfect! 

Double fingerprint cufflinks 

Perhaps a more subtle celebration of this great event? How about these personalised cufflinks with baby's fingerprint captured forever? Grown men have been known to cry on receiving these!

We love Edward Monkton but normally his verse is quite offbeat. Not so with the Wonderful Dad mug, which pretty much does what it says on the mug! Perfect for the home or the office, for the endless coffee he might need! 

Marking the Moment

Poem & Photo Montage for New Dads 

To mark the moment he becomes a dad, how about a photo montage and a poem written specially for him? Of course it's slightly soppy, but this is probably a soppy moment, comparable only to his team winning the FA Cup. The guys at The Bespoke Gift Company do all the work, you just need to send them some photos and a few details and they'll do the rest. 

Deluxe casting of baby's tiny hands and feet! 

The thing about babies is that they grow really quickly. And you wake up one day and can't remember just how little they were. Well, with The Bespoke Gift Company you can. With one of their kits you could take moulds of just baby's hand or foot, or you could do the new dad's at the same time! Even add in the new mum's too!  

Photobooks from Photo Box 

You're bound to take a whole heap of photos of the new addition and the new dad in a short space of time. You can either leave them as they are, or put them into a great photo book. We love Photo Box, the layouts are simple but great looking, and easy to use. Even when you're sleep deprived!

Digital photo frame from Prezzy Box 

If the whole photo book seems too much like hardwork, then how about a digital photo frame? You can show off all the new photos very easily, and it might even entertain baby for a bit! Very simple to use and great looking too, and this one comes in under £60.

 

Spoil Him Just for Fun - indulgent gifts for the new dad

Mallard Live Steam from Hornby

 Whatever he says, and whether you had a boy or a girl, he will see this as a perfect opportunity to buy a model train. Of course the child isn't going to get a look in but dad will be over the moon if you indulge him in one of these. This version of the famous Mallard from Hornby even has real live steam! The only other thing that come close to this is perhaps a Scalextric.

Personalised beer from Branded Beer 

As you've created a special "vintage" of your own together, then how about providing with a few bottles of his own brew? Branded Beer gives you the opportunity to have personalised beer bottles produced for him with some pretty good brews inside! Great gift for a (moderate) beer drinking new dad, and there are other options if beer is not his thing. 

New baby biscuits from Biscuiteers 

These adorable new baby biscuits from Biscuiteers taste as good as they look. Something fabulous to go with a cup of tea or coffee, particularly at odd hours of the night, or early in the morning! 

New Dad Hamper from Funky Hampers 

We love that Funky Hampers have come up with a great hamper for a new dad, and the contents are great. Everything from bubbly and biscuits, to earplugs and a baby owners manual. It'll raise a smile, and we think he'll enjoy it.

 

Keeping Up With Tradition

 Veuve Clicquot Rose - perfect for a girl

It would seem a most appropriate moment for champagne! You could buy pink if it's a girl, one with a blue label if it's a boy, one of each, or just one you like! I don't think you can ever go wrong with Veuve Cliquot, and it also has a wide range of sizes, from the mini "pop" type bottle through magnums and upwards. Or just settle for the one bottle! 

A cigar is traditional, and indulging on one on this huge occasion is probably excusable! It's a traditional present for the new dad, and Simply Cigars have probably the widest selection online in the UK. Make it a very special one off, one that he will remember!  

 Dalmore Cigar Malt

If he might fancy a dram of something with his cigar, then here's just the thing! A bottle of Dalmore Cigar Malt, which has been designed specifically to be enjoyed with a good Havana, or as a digestif. 

Mister Zero Dry White Sparkling
 

Whether both or either of you have taken the pledge for ever or just during your pregnancy and breastfeeding, you don't need to think you're going to miss out on a bit of fizz! Try this dry sparkling white from organically grown grapes from Mister Zero.
