A well-prepared mom-to-be will have her bag packed and ready to go at 35 weeks. One of the best hospital bag checklists out there for mom and baby can be found at The Bump. But after the baby shower and before the new baby gift, consider putting together a hospital gift basket for that special mom-to-be from the following list of simple yet useful luxury items.
Cashmere socks: to guard against those cold hospital floors.
'Heart and Stripes' by Alison Slippey
Baby thank you cards: a quantity of pretty custom cards will help a new mother get a head start on her thank yous before those exhilarating but very tiring first weeks at home with baby.
High-thread count pillowcase: hospital-provided linens just aren’t that soft.
A soft towel: [see pillowcase above.]
Gourmet or simply comfort snacks: so the hospital vending machine isn’t the only option during those hungry times.
- Aloe vera face wipes: for quick bedside refreshment before the visitors and the photos.
A recent bestseller or stack of magazines: to allow mom some well-deserved relaxation time.
A pretty bathrobe or cardigan: for comfort and style over the dreaded hospital gown while hosting guests.
Lip gloss and hand lotion: for a simple post-baby pick me up.
iTunes card: whether it’s new tunes for mom or simple lullaby tunes for baby, the gift of music is always welcome.
The items above are simple and easy to find, yet will be a welcome surprise for any new mom as she is about to head to the labor & delivery ward. And if your gift doesn’t make it in time for mom’s hospital stay, it is very simple to send an order of baby thank you cards to the new family’s home. The diverse collection of baby thank you cards at LookLoveSend offers fresh high-quality designs that are guaranteed to ship the next business day.
