first mothers day

[rpitchfo]

looking for a little inspiration. Want to do something nice for DPs first mothers day. Did anyone do anything especially nice for the first one?

That's lovely, how thoughtful :)

Some ideas:

• if she has a charm bracelet, you could get a charm made with a print of your baby's hand or foot (online options available but be quick!), or you could get a necklace pendant.

• on the same lines, there are lots of pottery places that will do an impression of the baby's hands and feet onto a mug, plaque, plate etc.

• book an outdoor family photoshoot

• flowers and chocolates are lovely

• an engagement ring :o

• breakfast in bed

Just a long lie-in with no baby! Maybe a card with hand or foot prints on. Breakfast in bed.

When my were babies, what I wanted more than anything on earth was sleep!!!!!

DH put a box of chocs in dd cot so when I went into get her they were there. Think I also got tea and toast and a magazine to read but that may have been year two!
I would say just a nice card and flowers would be lovely.

As above, lie in!

Or...

An eternity ring

Flowers / chocs

Locket with pics of u as family

Get down on one knee

Painted/moulded handprints

Breakfast in bed

Day off

Pandora

Scrap book of family moments with space at the end for the many years to come.

Etc...

Pick baby up when they wake and take them out for a couple of hours.

leave a tray set in the lounge with pastries, pan au chocolat fruit juice etc and a note saying to relax and enjoy their morning.
