Nice!! I gave her a pic of me and the children, and one of just the two of them, plus I took a pic of her with them last night for their books.
If you can't find a stork, you could always get a booties charm, that was my original idea.]]> Sat, 31 Mar 2007 19:50:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124782&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124782 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124638&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124638 Author: mummy_becks

I get some money on Tuesday i'll go in then and have a look. I have to get the photos of the boys printed as well to give to her and then go and surprise her at her rooms with them both. I might get Andrew to give it to her, if he is behaving himself.]]> Sat, 31 Mar 2007 10:36:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124638&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124638 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124632&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124632 Author: fattartsrock

She absolutely loved it, she thought it was a great idea, and was really touched! I felt really sad it was our last visit
Becks, not too sure, shouldn't be more than about $25?]]> Sat, 31 Mar 2007 10:31:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124632&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124632 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124570&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124570 Author: TaylasMum

Great idea Annie! I was slack and couldn't think of anything appropriate that summed up how much my midwife did for us so I ended up with sunflowers (they were really cool!) and a card with a photo and copy of the birth notice, and then I sent her a Xmas card with a photo of the girls and we went to visit her about 6 weeks ago.

I thought about getting her a greenstone, but have decided to wait until the girls turn 1. We'll get them greenstones for their first birthday (like we did with Maya) and will get a smaller one of the same design for Yvonne. She was so brilliant, I can't rave enough about her.]]> Thu, 29 Mar 2007 19:47:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=124005&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#124005 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=123891&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#123891 Author: nikkitheknitter

Cute Annie!

I gave my midwife earrings as she always had a different pair on when she arrived and they always matched her clothes

Actually... must track her down and give her an update.

Ok, so I know I was peed off with her a few weeks back. but we got that sorted out. ANyhow, I had a great brain wave for a pressie for her since I see her for the last time this week and I won't be having any more children.. unless Rods vasectomy goes the same way as Mike's, and I'm posting about a 3rd bubba in a years time, lol!

Anyhow, I got her a 9ct gold stork charm, since she has been our "stork" and delivered our babies... I know, I know, sounds expensive, but remember I work at a jewellers and get a great discount... Silver charms are cheap if you ladies wanted to copy my idea..

Cool idea, aye? *skite* ]]> Thu, 29 Mar 2007 10:01:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6417&PID=123753&title=cool-pressie-for-midwife#123753
