I remember dd1 being very chuffed after the birth of one of hers, when someone brought her a lot of nice chocolate!

All great ideas.

Another one I thought of is that we have a branch of Cooks round here with lots of gourmet frozen meals - but I do not know how full their freezer might be.

I also wondered if I might get a hamper and go round our nearby farm shop which is full of delicious goodies and fill it up from there. Just need to find a nice hamper/box.

We bought friends of my daughter a restaurant voucher, one that delivered the meal..

I always think it’s such a lovely idea to get Mum something instead of baby!

Gifts I’ve given in the past have ranged from “smellies” to vouchers for a facial, to a nice bottle of wine or pure cotton nighty, all sounds very boring but all seemed happy with their gifts.

Or a hand put together hamper with teas, coffee and the good biscuits! Flowers?

My next door neighbour is about to produce her first. She has lots of family who I am sure will provide lots of necessities for the baby, but I was wanting to get something for the mum that might make her life easier, especially in this punishing heat.

Any ideas?
