At Air Bod, we’re all about making people smile — and nothing gets giggles and genuine “awws" quite like a personalised inflatable doll designed just for the soon-to-be parent. So, whether you’re the quirky auntie, the funny best mate, or the soon-to-be sibling with big main-character energy, here are some sweet ideas for baby shower brilliance.
Your face on a Blow Up Bear? Yes, Please.
Want to give something that’s thoughtful and hilarious? Try designing a cuddly animal-themed inflatable doll. Choose from teddies, giraffes, sleepy sloths, or even a blow up unicorn. It’s cute, totally unique, and surprisingly photogenic.
(Pro tip: It also makes the perfect baby room prop — just inflate, pose next to the cot, and prepare for Insta-worthy pics.)
For the New Mum: Inflatable Encouragement
New mums deserve all the love — and maybe also a female blow doll version of themselves holding a latte, wearing slippers, and proudly labelled “FUTURE MILF”.
Other winning ideas include customising inflatable dolls with slogans like:
-
“Best Mum Ever”
-
“Sleep is a Myth”
-
“Queen of Nappy Changes”
It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and way better than another candle.
Shoutout to the Baby Daddy
Is he ready? Who knows. But an inflatable version of him holding a “Baby Daddy” sign is a solid place to start. Personalise a male blow up doll with his favourite footy shirt, facial hair, or even a baby carrier strapped to his chest — the more dramatic, the better.
You can even add a little speech bubble that says, “I googled how to change nappies.”
Because support comes in many forms — including inflated plastic ones.

Sibling of the Year Material
Let’s not forget the soon-to-be big brothers or sisters. They’ve got a big job ahead, and they deserve a moment too. Create a custom inflatable doll that says “Best Sister Ever” or “Best Brother Ever”. Or even with their own face printed on a superhero body.
It’ll make them feel seen, special, and slightly famous. Plus, it’s a great distraction when the baby steals all the attention.
From Cute Quotes to Cracking Keepsakes
Finish things off with some lovely custom touches. Add special messages like:
-
“Arriving July 2025”
-
“Tiny Toes & Endless Cuddles”
-
“Mum’s Little Legend”
Whether it’s a sweet design or a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the chaos ahead, these inflatable dolls become keepsakes that parents will actually want to keep.
So, if you’re after a baby shower gift that’s sweet, silly, and totally unforgettable, give them an Air Bod.
