Hi all!
My colleagues at work asked me what I'd like as a pregnancy present. They said they'd send flowers but wanted to check in before to see if I needed something more practical. We have the basics as we've bought almost everything we need / were given a lot of things by friends and family. Any recommendations for "nice to have" items that one wouldn't necessarily buy as a basic but you'd recommend? I thought of Ollie the owl maybe?Wink Xx

Ollie the Owl is a godsend and would recommend - my DS was indifferent as a newborn but at 3 months the white noise setting helps him resettle himself (you can leave it so it comes on automatically when they stir).

Ewan the dream sheep! We had him before and loved him, this time I'm expecting No 2 and got the deluxe which has a cry sensor so will start white noise during the night if baby cries without me moving lol

Oh I'm glad I'm thinking along the right lines! Wasn't quite sure what to get but thought of this that I heard many people liked! Any ideas shout out Wink

Tuppence and Crumble star wrap. It's the best blanket. They sit in it so you can use it in a sling or in a buggy or pram. And they look very cute which is an added bonus.
