Hi,

My sister is about to be induced and I would like to get her a little box made up with things that will help her afterbirth.

if anyone has suggestions please let me know what you would have liked as a little pamper box. Thanks

I would have loved one of those doughnut shaped cushions that take the pressure off your stitches, and a wrap top to make breastfeeding easier.

I would have hated anything to do with baths for me, like bubble bath or face mask etc. I wasn’t having baths it’s a huge infection risk after birth etc.

All I was interested in was my baby. Presents for the baby were presents for me. Muslins, baby nail file kit, etc.
