I didn't know an eternity ring was traditional.......... maybe someone shoulda told my hubby :-)

Yes very much so, even though my husband's sister in law and his sister have both received one, my husband has still not been forthcoming!

They do some resonable eternity rings now so worth looking around before you buy x

perhaps the midwives could put a note in the 'leaving hospital' bag..... far more useful then SOME of the stuff you get given.

Baby's handprint - put it in a wooden frame (Wilko's do some) then write around on the frame " This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 5 months old"

I, too, am still waiting for the eternity ring - maybe the clue is in the name!!!

Hi All,

I want to buy something for my wife from our son who is 5 months old. As it is our first Christmas as a new family I wanted to do something special that she would realy like. I don't want to spend a lot as I am already buying her a digital camera from me. If anybody has got any suggestions or ideas I would be extremely grateful.

thanks

Chris

No suggestions but have a happy christmas, top man.

Hubby said about an eternity ring for me. but i still can't find one i like. lol. mainly because my engagement ring is so huge that i want the eternity ring to be very simple and danity.


My daughter was 8 weeks old at her first xmas and she bought me a really simple, plain beautiful gold torgue bangle. Then when she was 6 months old she bite it and it now has the dent of her front two top teeth, which just looks so cute so even more memoraible ,lol.

What a loevly idea. Can't add tothe great suggestions - but hope youall enjoy your special first family Christmas!

Oh and yeah...seems no-one told my DH about eternity rings either! We have had 6 DC (yes 6 LOL) and not an eternity ring in sight....sigh...

On my sons first Xmas i got a little heart shaped compact mirror, and engraved on the back was " i love you mummy, from son", needless to say i just burst into tears of delight (ok, well maybe the hormones played a part too)!

Whatever you get her from the baby I'm sure she'll be over the moon, whether it cost 50p or £50! Just the fact you bothered will be enough - trust me!
I was going to suggest the handprint mold too. I did one of my babies foot and I shall keep it forever!!
