Do you have a friend having a baby soon? If so, make her a COMFORT KIT!
Because sometimes people need a little comfort (especially when at the hospital).
I thought this would be a fun gift to her and her husband Reed (and Reed definitely enjoyed it!).
Since I've never had a child, I looked to the internet and friends as to what people want, need,
and forget most during their hospital stay.
Wipes, lip balm, face wipes, hair bands/bobby pins, breath mints.
I added fun little notes on each item.
Powerade (I got this idea from Polkadot Prints. She made a cute Labour Kit too!).
I also added Bible verses to encourage Kelli and Reed.
SNACKS!
SNACKS!
Reading material and more snacks
(Kelli was loving Orange Cream soda, so I thought orange slices might be good too).
For much needed back-rubs.
Celebratory package.
Praise the Lord for a happy and healthy baby!
Packed it all up and delivered it.
Actually I ended up delivering it the night she went into the hospital!

I love giving people special gifts and this one was a ton of fun to make.
What else would you include in a comfort kit?!

ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! What an amazing friend you are to have done all of this for the mom-to-be! I love the idea! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice idea, often Mum is forgotten while everyone goes baby mad. Particularity if this is a 2nd baby and Mum already has the baby stuff covered!
