Best present for third time mum?

[FattyFatCakes]

Hi
What is the best present you received after having a baby?
My friend has just had her third (delivered by c section if that’s relevant) so I’d like to get her something special.
She already has all the baby stuff she needs. She also has her mum at home helping out with childcare / cooking etc.
Any ideas gratefully received!
Thanks

If childcare isn't a problem if her mum's around - maybe a pampering day?

Good idea thanks. Maybe a voucher to use at a later date or someone to come to the house as I’m guessing she won’t want to leave the baby

I became a third time mum last autumn.

I have No Time. (And no help, which might be relevant). I might be able to use a pampering day in about five years time. It’s too dark in my bedroom to read a book... the thought of having even twenty minutes uninterrupted bath time is laughable so bubble baths remain unused.

Chocolate. Healthy fruit possibly. An amazon voucher with a kindle in mind. Naice shower gel? A cake delivery?

Particularly something for a few weeks later when the initial euphoria has gone...

If baby is born different season to the others, then they may need eg woolly hat in a different size... but I was drowning in clothes already and didn’t really need anything new.

A voucher for Cook ready meals or a big bag of meals from M&S. Something for the older ones to do like audiobook or big colouring tablecloth.

I was just going to say chocolate or cake, or flowers. I have 3 DC and am now put the other side as the youngest is 3 buts it's pretty manic in the early days.

I saw my friend today who has recently become a third time mum and she was saying how her NCT friends (from her 1st) have given her £60 for using on a cleaner. She was really pleased and I thought it sounded like a great idea!

Ok so cake is definitely on the list!
Luckily my friend has lots of help (family and paid) so that makes things a bit easier. And her eldest two are at school (although currently on hols of course). I love Cook so I’ll definitely look into that as well.

My friends clubbed together and got me a voucher for a spa day when I had my third. It expired before I could use it, as with a bottle refusing EBF baby and 2 other kids I just didn't have the time.

I also remember being a little sad that I didn't get given any cute baby outfits - I couldn't really justify buying new clothes for DS3 myself as had all of the older boys' things, but actually it was really lovely when other people bought him something so he had to some new things that were just his and he wasn't in hand me downs the whole time.

I agree that baby needs special things that are just his. I always get something with their name on like a special blanket so they know when they grow that something was theirs only.
Or delivery of some tasty healthy meals if anyone nearby is doing that.

Marks voucher for ready meals
Home made voucher from you to clean bathroom or whatever
New cosy dressing gown and slippers

Ok great, in that case I will get the new baby something. She did say this is definitely her last so she didn’t want to buy too much stuff so a gift would probably be well received. Thank you!

A membership like RHS or NT so she can go out with LOs and meet others for walk etc. as mat money doesn't go far and it's nice to get out somewhere different.

Ooooh is like one of those myself!
