This rather creepy and hilarious item will surely make your present stand out among the rest of the [diaper cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecopeacos-bath-bundle). This super weird item comes from [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etsy-1) seller DonnaGalea and can be found on her page. Forget about diapers, highchairs and baby clothes as gifts, this is sure to cause a whole new craze in baby gift giving. The soap looks like a baby fetus and is covered in what looks like a ball of placenta. Every time you have a shower or bath, you'll get closer and closer to the fetus. If you time it well enough, they may give birth around the same time they finish the soap. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Unconventional Baby Gifts:** Opportunity for companies to create unique and quirky baby shower gifts. - **Shock Value Marketing:** Brands can create shock value marketing campaigns to attract new customers. - **Humorous Personal Care:** Potential for brands to create personal care products with humorous designs to appeal to younger generations. ### Where This Applies - **Personal Care Industry:** Can expand product lines to include quirky or humorous designs to appeal to younger demographics. - **Gifting Industry:** Opportunity to create unique and humorous baby shower gifts for a growing market. - **E-commerce Industry:** Online marketplaces can feature unconventional and humorous items like the Fetus Soap to attract customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gruesome Horror Film Soaps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blood-bubbles-soap.md) - [Mother-Specific Self-Care Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfcare-gift-kit.md) - [Festive Moldable Soaps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-body-works-shapeable-soap.md) - [Formulized Infant Cleansing Foams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-dior-la-mousse.md) - [Shrinking Sad Soaps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soap-that-turns-sad.md) - [Offbeat Bath Bombs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/da-bomb-extreme.md) - [Affordable Pregnancy-Friendly Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-honest-company1.md) - [Botanical-Based Gift Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/formulary-55.md) - [NYC-Themed Baby Gift Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-gift-set.md)
