Separate gifts or baby basket?

Who is usually present a gift basket and who is present separate things for newborn baby and parents? Is there some practice in the US?
Thank you for answers. My main question is what to choose: ready gift basket or to buy by separate goods.
Is there some practice for presenting gift baskets in the US?

i always give baskets for baby showers. i buy the items separately and make it myself. i can get what i know they will want and not what a factory throws together. this is what i usually put in

motrin
baby wash
shampoo
towel
wash cloth
baby powder
a little stuffed animal
diaper rash cream
gas drops
syrup of ipecac (not sure about the spelling)
liquid charcoal

i'll buy the little bottles (travel size) and put it in a basket and stick a bow on it and viola, i'm done!!!
