Don’t get her a diaper cake. Just from personal experience mine is collecting dust, never been taken apart.
Check to see where she is registered and follow what she registered for. If she isn’t registered just get her a gift card. I registered and still ended up with so many duplicates because people didnt use the registry it was a serious pain to take all the stuff back. Good Luck.

A good baby shower gift is a robe and some house shoes, so when she goes into labor she can be comfortable. Dont forget a baby duckie for the baby

Diapers!!!! Seriously, if she does not have much support or if money is tight…diapers. If she is doing good and has a lot of support…get her something you know she can use. Like receiving blankets or onesies (0-3 months, not newborn…they only last a little while). Sometimes it is just best to ask what she needs. If she doesn’t know, then ask what she already has…to make sure there is no repeats.

I think the coolest thing I have is belly cast I did during my pregnancies with my children. It is very original and memorable. I gave it to my cousin at her shower it went over pretty well. Here is the site you can get it off of or you can find it at Burlington Coat Factory-Baby Depot (if you have that in your area). This is a good gift so she can remember her pregnancy.
Since she is younger though and may need more stuff I agree. Diapers are great not too many Newborn though babies outgrow them quickly. Clothes are good, again keep the small sizes to a minimum parents always prefer to buy the teeny clothes as they are not small forever. A little baby tub filled with bathing needs is nice. Both my children loved the Oceans Wonder Aquarium Crib toy, Cradle/swing, and bouncer. If you are going in on a gift with someone else the aforemention cradle/swing was a godsent for me and good stroller is great as well.

I’d say get her the book “What to Expect Baby’s First Year.” Its good for first time mothers, especially young ones who may not have been around babies too often.

A fisher price aquarium for the crib. My daughter LOVES hers and they are very soothing even for tiny babies. This will help her get the baby calm at night.

How about a diaper cake? She is definitely going to need the diapers, and this is a really attractive and memorable way to give them. Have a look:http://www.diapercakewalk.com

Depends on how much money you are planning on spending..
There is so many great girl gifts! My fav (but I had a boy) was a diaper bag just full of clothes and bottles and suckies just everything you need! I also got a cute 3 wheel umbrella stroller, and a great pair of jeans to wear after the baby.
Enjoy the shower!
