Whilst flowers and gifts for baby and mum may be nice, help with the practical side of parenting can really help reduce the stress and fatigue associated with having a brand new baby.
Some nice ideas are meal trains, help cleaning and folding washing, a coffee and breastfeeding snacks, running to the shops for food or chemist supplies, and even gift vouchers for a postpartum doula who can help with all of the above (such as Hayley from ✨)
When we nurture the mother, we nurture the baby too.
What was the most meaningful gift of support you received, or wish you’d had in those early days?
