Meeting BM for the first time!

I am new here and need some help. We are adopting a baby boy that is due at the beginning of Jan!! We are meeting the bm for the first time 2 days after Thanksgiving. She has a 17 month old son and we were thinking about bringing him a little gift when we meet them. Do you think it will be a good idea? The adoption is going to be closed. She has asked me to be in the delivery room and is very excited for us. I am just trying to get some other opinions on this idea.

    I think a small gift for him would be a nice ice-breaker.
    2 years TTC with 5 losses, 1 year recovering, 6 months applying for adoption approval, and almost a year waiting for a placement. Then, a miracle BFP at age 36!

    That's a toughy-but if it were me-yes I would bring her something small and something as well for the little one she has.  What-not sure...maybe something like lotions or bath gels, or a journal to write down her thoughts or possibly to write a letter to her little one. 

    When we sent our BM a package for her birthday we included stuff for her other children. 

    Good luck!! :)
