     Topic: Help, midwife gift     Posted: 28 June 2009 at 10:35am |

   It has just occured to me that I have not gotten my midwives a thank you gift!
 
 Any suggestions as I have no idea what to give them.
 
 I cant believe I forgot to do this, after all if it wasnt for them my PE may have gone undetected until much later!!!! (my bp and urine were fine).

   I got mine something totally non baby related but really personal for her from conversations we'd had.  I gave it to her on Friday (I'm under the back up now for the rest of our post natal care) and she was SO excited!!  I was really glad cause I kind of thought it should be a baby thing but it was perfect for her     
Good luck choosing!  Midwives are such wonderful people (especially the good ones   )

   I got my mw and really nice gift set that had nice chocs, hand lotion, bath/shower stuff, and a bottle of wine. 
This was for my mw with Joel, didn't like my mw with Leah by the end of having her and I was one of her last pg ladies so it was almost like she couldve cared less as well so I didn't even think to give her anything. With Joels mw I would have given her anything she was so fantastic...a totally different experience.

   I went to silvermoon and got her a necklace, and then got one of those room freshener that looks like oil with 4 sticks that stand in the oil.

   After Maya I gave her chocolates, after the gremlins I gave her sunflowers and chocolates, and after lil miss I gave her a really cool gift basket of goodies. I really struggled to come up with something 'important' enough to sum up how grateful I was, she did deliver all 4 babies after all!

   I got mine a wicked necklace. She is a real necklace person and it was one of the first thinsg I noticed about her style.
 
 It was a rather expensive one but knew she would love it and also desperately wanted her for baby number 2 so knew it was worth the extra money!
 
 I have seen her out and about on days when she doesn't know she will be seeing me and she has had it on so know that she obviously likes it.
 
 As to what I will get her this time...I have no idea!

   I got mine two bottles of wine, she was surprised I knew what she liked, even though she had told me at one of our visits.
