tips advice from mum of two pregnancy labour delivery

What were the best gifts you received at your baby shower? Or if you didn’t have a shower, gifts before baby was born?
I received a heated clothes airer and it’s amazing!!! And a snuggle bed.

Were you gifted anything that you never got around to using?
Lots of little things didn’t get used, but mostly clothes that didn’t fit or were out of season.

Did you receive any gifts at your shower that were for you (not baby) and if so, what were they?
Yes, I received a succulent terrarium and a few meals for me.

Now that you’re a Mum, what’s your ‘go to’ baby shower gift?
I don’t have a ‘go to’ gift, it depends on the person. Though I like to give pram hooks because they are always handy..

A single tip for labour/delivery day
Labour…get as much rest as you can before if possible and get some of these muscle relaxants for after birth pain… made the biggest difference the second time around!
