It is 3 decades since I had my DC. What was the most useful smallish gift you received when having your first baby? Something a bit different from a babygro or blanket. I am looking for inspiration.
TIA

Insulated mug, good quality.
The new mum can keep her coffee or tea hot, and they're safer to sip from with a baby than an ordinary mug.

Also a litre capacity water bottle. You can get very thirsty while breastfeeding.
