need ideas for gift basket!! (bedrest pg friend mentioned)

in TTC After a Loss

So I have a very good friend in Chicago who is pg and due August 9th.  Well her OB just put her on bedrest this week for at least 5-6 weeks!  

She is not a FH in any way shape or form - she has experienced 4 m/c before this pregnancy and this is her 1st baby.

She is currently still working but I have a feeling that may change next week - it's too much stress.  I'm afraid she may go BSC - I know I would!

I wanted to send her a nice gift basket with magazine, books, movies, etc.  Is there anything else that might be good to put in the basket?

I wish she was a TTCAL bumpie but she's not.  Sleep

Thanks ladies!

    Maybe Word Search, Sudoku, or crossword books?

    Time for her to join the bump so we can entertain her!  She actually might like the high-risk board too since they will have similar issues.

    I like the books and mags idea.  How about a neck pillow?  An eye mask - the one that has gel and you can freeze?  Sudoku books?

    Does she like to do any knitting or needlepoint?  Does she have a TV in her room? Maybe a box set of 'I Love Lucy'?  If she has an iPod or the like maybe an iTunes gift card that she could go on and purchase some new apps/songs?

    All of the above but maybe also some chick flicks (a subscription to Netflix, perhaps, if she doesn't have one already?).

    I don't know how much you want to spend but when I am sick my mama gives me new pajamas and it's the best feeling in the world to change into them!  She probably has a bump right now, but you can get one of those big nightshirts from Wal-Mart for around $10 or so.
