Not sure if this is quite the right area, but nevermind.
Mrs SS, is a few weeks away from giving birth to our first child, a little boy.
I'd like to buy her a gift to give to her after the birth, I don't mind splashing out a bit because I've done a load of overtime at Christmas.
Any suggestions?

No ideas on a gift but just in case you weren't planning to:
Do all the cooking - with newborns you sometimes forget to eat.
Take turns in the night unless she is BF.
Give her time for sleeps in the day.

Perhaps an eternity ring if she doesn't already have one?0

A lovely necklace.
Something to treasure forever - which doesn't include a £10 9ct MUM chain from Helf Price Jewellers (in case the idea had occurred to you
) I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
If its a boy its tradition to buy the mother a silver ring I think0

Something that can be engraved with the date/name/occasion perhaps.0

I got a pandora bracelet with a baby boy bootee charm when I had my baby. That was nice as it means I can add to it at other special times through life.Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you are usually right.0

I was going to say a Pandora bracelet too. My DD had one for xmas and I think its lovely. Mind you make sure you get the real thing as there is lots of fakes out there!I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
When our first was born, my OH bought me a lovely ring with DS's birthstone in it. It's the only thing I never ever take off. We could have got it engraved, but I've never felt the need. I probably would have loved it had he done so though.
It was lovely to me to be given something that would last forever.0
