Which would you like at your baby shower?

Baby shower coming up for my best friend. I'm going to do the photo book I asked you guys about awhile ago, and some baby stuff, but I kind of want to go all out for her.

I wanted to get something extra for her..
Figured I would ask the pregnant girls...which of these would you enjoy the most?

and any other ideas? I know she would never do a maternity shoot..but she would do a family shoot.

thanks!

Re: Which would you like at your baby shower?

I would love a spa service like a prenatal massage! Or a GC for a massage after the baby comes.

I got my best friend (in addition to some baby stuff) a GC to Whole Foods to pick up prepared food when the baby cames (she loves Whole Food salad bar, lol) but maybe some GCs for takeout for that first month too! I know I would appreciate that!

Personally, I love massages, so a spa service would be great if you want something for her. However, for my shower, my girlfriends all chipped in for a newborn shoot. It was one of the best gifts!

I'd say family photo shoot. The other stuff people can very picky about. For instance I will not experiment on where I will get a facial or haircut...especially after having raging harmones after a baby. These are all very thoughtful but I think if she is going to use something after a baby that would be your best option IMO

I got a Mom gift basket. A GC to a mani and pedi. A bottle of wine, some bubble bath maybe even a GC to a restaurant. Very thoughtful.

Re: Which would you like at your baby shower?

My vote would either be GC to a restaurant or a photo shoot. I'm sure when baby S arrives I won't be cooking very much right away, and I know I'm going to want to do newborn pics which can get pretty costly.

Thank you all

Good point on the salon thing and hormones! I like the gift basket idea, too.

gc for a prenatal massage

or a gc to a food place that will deliver. she might not want to cook or go out and to have food sent to the home would be great
