what was best new baby girt you recieved?

[moljam]

especially for a girl?my friend just had a girl-she has all things she really 'needs' but cant think of nice gift!the only thing i could think was a blanket but shes been brought lots already.

I'm guessing you meant gift, not goat?
I really liked my hooded towels.

nappies,wipes and baby wash. they were the most useful presents i had bought me

A Brightsparks Coorie pouch sling.
A bumbo baby seat - from 4/5 months onwards
A gorgeous silver piggy bank

I always go for something totally non-baby related. Book for the hours of sofa-bound feeding?

is this a first baby?

the things that meant most to me were:

baby gym
lovely superexpensive sweaters - in winter you see them mostly in sweaters IMO and a nice one is REALLY nice to have
brightly-coloured tights - winter baby needs something covering its feet and socks always fall off - marks do nice tights - mix of colours is good

Hotel Chocolat new baby gift basket
Totally fab and have bought it for other new mums since

I was hoping someone would buy this for my DD (you have to see the back of it, its sooooo cute)

No one did though

Baby gets bib - Mummy gets lots of yummy chocolate!! It's delivered too which is great

A keepsake box for all her new baby cards, hospital tags and bits and bobs?

Swaddle blanket? Great for newborns.

I would have loved a sling.

book about what to expect in the first year/five years?

Photo frame?

whoops gift yes!!

bodkin thats adorable!

fourth baby but first girl.already thought of sling as i loved mine but i really dont think theyd use one.

Someone bought my DD a beautiful little china cup in a lovely box. She still hasn't used it and she's 2 1/2. I'm waiting until she's old enough to appreciate it.

StressTeddy have you got link?

Just lovely - mmmmmmm

a promise to take me out to lunch baby-free once she was ok to be left for an hour or so. especially for a sahm second timer a bit of adult time out was a real lift.

I got sent this and it was blardy brilliant.

ImBarryScott wow!that looks soooo nice

A white company blanket - we now keep it in the car in case and she's almost 3.

For baby - a new towel (used to put her on immediately after she was born, as it happened!) also some handknitted booties.
For me - choc and neals yard massage oil
