What would be your ideal birth gift?
Something for you, or something for the baby?
Hvae a friend who has just had a baby and not really sure what to get - I got lots of things for the baby when I had mine, so was thinking something for her but am stumped!
Silly really as a mum myself, but there we go

Hi Daisy,
It is true that generally we tend to give something for the baby but they do some nice gift product for the mother for after the birth, for her nipple, her skin etc.. i am always wondering if i would appreciate such a gift, i think i would be touched but if i was buying that for a friend, i would buy a little something for the baby too.

Otherwise, for the baby, i would appreciate whatever people will give me really, as long as it is nice and good quality. What i would love for sure is a bedding set, suitable for cots and cots bed. I love the one in babiesrus!
A friend of mine prefer to offer something that keep a long time, to not say all your life is a Personalised Gingham Name, she bought it at blooming marvellous, i think it is a good idea, orginal and decorative, have a look:

Hope it will help ),
