thanks so much for all your lovely advice! I went with food from cook and the giraffe toy for now which both went over very well but now I've got lots of other brilliant ideas to follow up on in the next weeks for future presents!

Thanks again!

Ahha, thanks so much Smiler! Was posting my post at the same time as you! Love the favorites and non favorites and confirmation of "Cook" idea, but yes, they will need to have freezer space. . .xx

Wow, thank you so much for all your lovely ideas!

I was thinking food as well, maybe picking up homemadey frozen meal things from "Cook", not quite the same as lovingly ACTUAL homemade things by me, but probably better tasting!!

Muffins sound great too, may save that for next week and then thinking some kind of present sounds nice as well! I love the mani/pedi idea and voucher for babysitting and the idea of the baby swaddling blanket, although, and please forgive my complete ignorance here, are there different opinions on swaddling or is it something everyone likes to do? Just don't want to get them something that maybe they won't want to use?!

Hello,

I would love any advice you can offer me!

What is the best present or thing someone did for/gave to you and your newborn when they first visited you all at home?

They're my first close friends to have a baby and I'd love some advice on what you most appreciated at the time!

Thank you!
