Any ideas on what I could get as a small gift for the new mum?, last year when she had her 1st baby I got her a wee pamper set things with bath stuff and candles so was just trying to think of something a little bit different but not too expensive

If she has two little ones she not going have much time for bath or candles this time! How about dvd or comedy series so when shes up breast feeding or pacing at 2am she can put something on?
Handcream/lip cream nice little treats that dont take more than mintue to put on.
Nice if you can freeze some meals so she has nice stock to choose from0 -
Could you book a meal out for 2 (Some pubs do really inexpensive 2 for 1 meals)and babysit for her.
Or - give her a pre paid voucher for same thing and another voucher for babysitting (by you) and tie it round with ribbon.0 -
I was about to suggest similar to Moonpenny - babysitting vouchers would be a great gift!
Also Ironing, housework help - that sort of thing.
Or a pamper kit and a babysitting offer, so she has the time to enjoy her gift! xxSometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

I haven't been able to see any that I like on the net, anyone out there that has any spare time fancy trying to put a wee book of 5 vouchers together for me, all for a day or night of babysitting. lol0
