Thought would update all the lovely posters who helped us shop for pregnant dil.

So got her 3 nice linen pairs of pjs for post baby as well as 3 snuggly maternity ones for now. Also sick slippers.

A thermos for night feeding and 3. Box sets of DVDs she hasn't got and like.

A spa voucher for next spring for her and ds or a friend.

A pretty bracelet and massage oils.

A big pretty bag for hospital stay with soap and glory goodies in it.

Aibu to hope she likes it? Grin hope so she's a sweetie.

Wow, how lovely are you, OP! I think I might need to tell OH's DM she needs to up her MIL game after reading that WinkGrin.

londonrach · 22/12/2015 18:51

Why have you posted on AIBU? Wink

Sounds lovely

PrincessMouse · 22/12/2015 19:14

You are amazing. She's a very lucky DIL. Flowers Star

Youarentkiddingme · 22/12/2015 19:20

How olds your other ds? Wink

Sounds lovely. It's so refreshing to read how mothers of sons are treating dil well - it offsets all the ones from the dil about their DH mother!

WyrdByrd · 22/12/2015 19:22

Lucky woman - I hope she appreciates you!

minininipie · 22/12/2015 19:26

That sounds very thoughtful. I'm sure your dil will love the gifts. She must be lovely and so must you!

BifsWif · 22/12/2015 19:26

They all sound like wonderful, thoughtful gifts. She'll love them I'm sure! Smile

LillyBugg · 22/12/2015 19:27

This is so thoughtful. The perfect present. Well done!

Hormonal1 · 22/12/2015 19:27

Can I swap you with my Mother in Law please? Grin

shinynewusername · 22/12/2015 19:28

To be fair, sick slippers would be appropriate for early motherhood.

Fluffyears · 22/12/2015 19:28

Lovely gifts and so thoughtful. You have actually though about what she needs. Well done you, have a lovely Christmas.

CalleighDoodle · 22/12/2015 19:29
