ET Basket.. Ideas?
I'm thinking ahead for sure... but things are moving along and I'm thinking I'd like to give my surrogate a little token of my appreciation at the transfer. I know there's truly NOTHING tangible I could possibly give her to express just how thankful I am. Likewise, there's nothing I can even SAY to express my appreciation... No item nor word begins to even touch upon my admiration in this heroic woman. She is giving me a gift too great to describe in words.... However... I still plan on showering her with "thank you" presents at the milestones along the way!
I'm thinking at the transfer, a basket would be nice with some 2ww related things 
So far I'm thinking... a box of FRER (because that's what I'd be using if it were me!!  ) .. some pineapple... magazines...
Anyone else have other cute/creative ideas for things to put in the basket?

Maybe a giftcard for mani/pedi to help keep her nice and relaxed and pamper herself a little

I just can't begin to tell you how excited I am for you!!! I can't wait to hear all the updates...
The appreciation basket sounds so nice.....I would also put some yummy European chocolates in there (aims in implantation lol)....
I would also put some aromatherapy candles for her (or oils) to relax along with some spa/jazz CDs....

Michaels arts and crafts has cute stuff in their dollar bins, like relaxation masks and little things that match. Maybe those comfy slippers with the memory foam?

Re: ET Basket.. Ideas?
first that is so cool!
does she knit? maybe crochet stuff?
soduku/crossword books?
a giftcard to someplace that delivers while she is resting
maybe some cadbury eggs as a good faith sign

Re: ET Basket.. Ideas?
That is really thoughtful of you...I think something relaxation based...lotions, aromatherapy, spa related like a nice robe or body scrub...I think anything you will put in the basket will be great and she will appreciate it...also a simple card just stating exactly what you said that she is giving you the most unbelievable gift any other person could give you would be touching

How about a month gift card to Netflix or Redbox?

How about a heating pad...I used this non-stop after ET to ease the discomfort.
