What is the perfect new mom gift from a husband?
I am thinking jewelry but I am looking for something that is not traditional. I am usually really good about coming up with unique gift ideas but am really struggling with this one.

I remember the best gift that my husband gave me. Women are always busy being the caregiver & housemaker. He gave me a gift certificate for a one-hour massage at a spa. That was so thoughtful & was a gift the was 100% for me. I loved it! The gal put on some really soft relaxing music & massaged all the knots & stress from me.
You could even go one step further & write on the card that you'll drive her to the spa & after her treatment you'll take her to a nice lunch at her favorite restaurant.

Did you ever treat your children differently?
Maybe you treated her like she never existed before?
It's possible if she feels that way
i dont know what you can do now, but i have a suggestion for you... WAIT ...
She might have something wrong in her mind and think everybody ignores her, but her boyfriend
give her sometime to think, feel, and see who are true to her
always keep your eyes on her and everything happening to her
just make sure you will be by her side when she really2 needs someone and hug her when she needs warmth and comfort
show her that you are the one caring about her and what she thinks about you and her siblings are not true
it needs some time and lots of prayers, but believe in yourself you can get it through and she will come back to you
wish the best for you and your family

Mary asks…
If you were to receive a gift basket as a new mom, what types of gifts would you like to be in it?
If you were to receive a gift basket as a baby shower gift, and assuming all the products in it would be for you, not for baby, what types of gifts would you like to be in it?
For example, would you like any of these? Or something else? please select all that you'd like. I am doing research for my new business and would appreciate any input! Thanks!
lip balm, tea, journal w/pen, chocolate, bath products, lotion, robe, slippers, comfy t-shirt, candle, aromatherapy eye or neck pillow, jewelry (necklace, earrings), gift card to retail store (what store?), gift certificate for a service such as manicure or massage, small inspirational book, cocoa butter or other stretch mark cream, lanolin or other lotion/ointment for breastfeeding, other.
Would you like to see any gifts in it for baby or just for you? If yes, what kind of baby gifts?
Would it matter to you if the products and packaging were either organic, "green", recycled materials or recyclable after use?
Thanks so much!

Your gift basket is wonderful!
YES, do include the baby. One gift or kindness given to a persons child is like giving ten fold in gifts and kindness to the parent.

Robert asks…
when's the soonest you can take out a lip ring or put in new jewelry?
i had snake bites a year ago but took them out shortly after since my mom was unhappy with my decision to get them. i'm about to move though and considering getting my lip pierced again but thinking of ways to keep her from seeing it when i visit and such. i don't know if taking it out for however long i'm around would suffice or if i should just go with some clear studs. if the clear jewelry was pretty well hidden under my bottom lip, surely it wouldn't be too visible right? any suggestions would be appreciated.
i wasn't suggesting getting pierced with clear jewelry but asking if clear jewelry would be a good alternative to put in the holes instead of taking the studs out because i'm not sure how long before the holes will start closing up and make it more painful to put the jewelry back in.

andre1 answers:
Typically you should wait 6-8 weeks after getting pierced before you change your jewelry. I've changed my lip jewelry after about 3-4 weeks and didn't have any problems. There's always a chance of running into problems if you change your jewelry before the recommended time. If you have to change it, make sure your hands are clean and the new jewelry is sterile. Also, clean the inside and outside of the piercing. Try to change it as quickly as possible. The less irritation, the better.
I'm not sure if you can be pierced with clear jewelry, but it's worth asking.

Mark asks…
please someone, what is this jewelry called??
A few years back my mother gave me a little pendant and said it was a new thing moms are doing in the states. The pendants come in 2 shapes, little girls and little boys. Kinda like gingerbread men/women shaped. in the middle of the pendant is the birthstone for your child. So if you have a little boy born in may for example, youd have the little boy shaped pendant with an emerald in the middle. Do these things have a name so I can do a search on them?! Thank you! That was back with my first kid, Now I got seven!
