When you have endured gone through pregnancy
you have a new empathy for friends in that first trimester sick phase
I put together this gift basket for a VERY sick pregnant friend
who also had to spend alot of time traveling..
This is what helped me survive pregnancy
herbal tea
Sprite
Lavender Candles
What to Expect When You're Expecting
(this eases a little of the WHAT is happening to my body)
Baby Wipes
(you can't have enough of the practical stuff)
and last but not least
a handmade heating/cold pack
Very easy to make: cut two rectangles of fabric, sew wrong sides together
except for one shorter side, fill with rice, flax seed, and essential oil
sew up last side with edges tucked under
I include a small water bottle to mist before heating which makes it last longer
throw some tissue paper and a bow on it..
This is a brilliant blog! I'm very happy with the comments!.. Monthly subscription service for expectant parents
