XP: pregnancy/baby/parenting songs??

My grandma called me and she wants to include a CD with songs about pregnancy, babies, parenting, etc. in the little gift bags that she's doing as favors at my shower. The problem is that she's totally computer challenged, so she asked if I would be willing to put a playlist together and burn the CD's. It sounds like fun to me, so of course I said yes...but now I'm kind of stumped on what to put on it. I want to have some diverse music so there's a song or two that everyone will like. I know I'll be using Baby Mine by Alison Kraus and I'm thinking maybe Laughed Until We Cried by Jason Aldean. Other than that, I'm drawing a big blank, which is bugging the crap out of me because I'm usually a music junkie. My brain just isn't working these days. Any other ideas?
I know that we can be so amazing. And baby, your love is gonna change me. Now, I can see every possibility. Somehow, I know that it'll all turn out. You'll make me work so we can work to work it out. I promise you, kid, I give so much more than I get. I just haven't met you yet. BabyName Ticker

Haven't met you yet by Michael Buble  (if you listen to the words, it seems much more baby related than a love song)

There Goes my Life by Kenny Chesney

You're Going to Miss This by Trace Adkins

 My Wish by Rascal Flatts

Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.  If I think of more, I will post more...  GL!

I was going to say You're Going To Miss This too.

And I can't remember the name of the song but Keith Urban has one that's about his daughter/family.

I didn't read your siggy and see that Haven't met you yet was in it... wasn't trying to be a smartass...  just so you know.  Smile

And I also thought of Uncle Kracker's Letter to my Daughers.  It's sweet... but more geared towards parents that don't get to be with their kids every day...

Brad Paisley's "Anything Like Me" and Darius Rucker "It won't be like this for long" are two of my favorites

 

PS - what a great idea for a shower favor!

Thanks, everyone! We're going to order some labels online that we can personalize and print out at home to put on the front of the CD's. I'm so excited about this favor!

What a fun idea! 

"Here I Am" from the Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron soundtrack would be really appropriate too... I can't watch or listen to that without getting all weepy even when I'm not pregnant haha
So excited to meet our baby girl in March!

Green (Welcome to the World) by Sister Hazel comes to mind.

I get teary eyed when I hear "Your Song" especially the Ellie Goulding version. I know it's not specifically about parenting, but when you think about the line "How wonderful life is now that you're in the world," the whole thing can totally apply to a baby.

The song Daughter is nice.  It dates the movie by a few decades, but its at the very end of Knocked Up.  

One of my favorites is Apron Strings by Everything But the Girl, it's a beautiful song.

Reba McEntire - When You Have a Child and George Strait's - I Saw God Today are the only ones that come to mind not already mentioned
