What would be in your ideal gift basket?

mavilabride4evah · February 2011

Was wondering if you ladies could help me out. If someone were to send you a deluxe gift basket right now, what would be in it?

For you:

For baby:

Thanks so much!

For me: Books. Im looking for a really good book that explains milestones & where LO is suported to be and what i should be exspecting. What to exspect doesnt really go into much detail, and everyday i ask myself "is he to far behind"

For baby: gift cards for formula or diapers. Thats really all i think about all day- formula and diapers. Maybe some cute toys that rattle or make noise, but LO still isnt stimulated by those yet.

Car keys, vibrator, iPad

Lets see... Me: A gift certificate for a manicure, bath and body works bubble bath/lotion, some chocolate, and a book or two. (If you want a baby book, Baby 411 is pretty good!)

Baby: diapers coupons, baby socks, a mesh laundry bag (for the socks, lol), diaper rash cream, mylicon, tylenol, and maybe a rattle.

I don't know. Most of the things I'd most want right now don't fit well into a gift basket.

Me: Babysitting offers; or gift certificate to spa or dinner, along with free babysitting! Gift certificate alone doesn't cut it for us right now. Stuff for a free dinner, i.e. gift card or homemade food gifts (no fancy chocolates, I'm talking like pans of lasagna for the family).

Baby: we have so much stuff from #1 and now #2 also that we don't need much. Gift cards; diapers, but they have to be the right kind (we use Pampers). Toys/books are great but they would have to know what we already have. high-end baby bath products, maybe? Super cute outfit always good (i.e. not the usual brands but something special??)

PP's idea of gift cert to Shutterfly or Tiny Prints is a good idea!

GC for food, I'm always so tired by the time dinner time hits. I hate cooking now ):
some cozy pjs!
books or B&N gift card since I have a nook. It's nice to read while I nurse, makes it less boring for me.
a maid! Haha but that's just me dreaming.

for baby-maybe some zip down the middle sleepers. Books. One of those white nose stuffed toys that I hear work like magic! And diapers are always welcome! Lol

I bought this book. I really like it. Tells you each week where baby might be at developmentally. Has suggestions for ways to help baby develop various skills. Has advice & articles on a different topic each week as well.

For me: a nice bottle of Merlot, a Dove Chocolate Bar and enough money so that I don't have to go back to work! (Of course the third one is me being silly)

For Baby: Extra onesies and some socks that stay on.

FirstBabyMomma · February 2011

Right now?

Me: book and/or magazine, gift card to a restaurant or for a massage, some nice coffee or tea, something for a bath (salts, bubbles, etc), some little food items perhaps.

Baby: Small toys (rattles etc), bibs, socks, maybe a book or two, bathtime stuff (lotion, bubbles, etc).

for me I would want "pampering" type things.. mani/pedi gift certificate, chocolate, wine, free babysitting.. for LO I would want more practical things because those are the things that aren't fun to buy.. things like diapers, burp cloths, or just a gift card to a baby store.
