A Tri-Fold or Roll-Out Floor Mattress
This is another far from traditional baby shower gift. However, as baby grows you may find yourself sleeping on the floor from time to time. Sometimes your little one may be sick, or scared, or going through sleep regression. Having a floor mattress can come in very handy.
