Gift Basket For New Mum

[buzybee]

my friends baby is due soon...shes already bought everything under the sun for the baby so there isnt really anything left I could get her. Shes gonna end up getting a ton of clothes so I dont want to do that.
So ive decided that i'll get a little gift to give her from kids and im going to give her a gift basket with stuff for her in it!
Any ideas of what i could add to it?

Wait until baby born and give vouchers for his/her child trust fund that every baby is now entitled to, to save until 18 minimum,

Yes, although zebra's iodeas a sensible one, all new mums feel a bit of pampering's in order, so I'd go with pink's idea.

i know it sounds daft but the best gift i was given after my daughter was born was homemade corned beef pie and a chocolate cake for afters. As i didnt have have the time between doing everything else and having visitors i found that id end up having something quick like beans on toast or soup for tea. That pie was the best i had ever tasted after a week of that lol.

good answers so far.

two of my best presents came from friends.

One gave me a gift parcel with bubble bath, a good book, candles, chocolates and a small bottle of wine. She knows i love to have a relaxing bath with a good book.

the other brough around food, already cooked pies etc and all i had to do was heat them through. She even supplied the veggies and the gravy so i didnt have to do a thing.

perhaps you could also pop in some personalised gift vouchers like:

babysitting
an hours ironing
and hours cleaning and dusting
washing up
etc etc
