What Are Cute and Practical Baby Gift Ideas for a Mom-to-Be?

I just got back from my hair stylist...It's been awhile since I've been in there, and come to find out- she's 7 months pregnant (I could barely tell!! She's so tiny! Hate her! ) Anyway....I thought it might be kind of fun to give her a little something...nothing too big. She's one of the first that I like and would make a point of going back to see HER. Normally, I just go to anyone, until I met her.

She's having a girl, which is nice- so I was thinking I could give her some Pink Twix-its. but what else might you put with it that could be useful for a new mom? I'll sift through my catalog later, but thought I'd see what ya'll might have done in the past.

To hell with PC and the baby ... how about a day of pampering for the new Mom AFTER the baby is born. Spa treatment, massage, and quiet time to celebrate herself?

LOL - after my baby was born, I couldn't be gone for more than 2 hrs at a time.

Although she won't need them till later, I used the Prep bowls all the time to mix up food for baby. small bamboo spoons are great for banging and then later for eating and digging in the dirt/sand. or you could do a cute Mini basket since she will now have a "little one" and put all our small things in it, whisk, spoons, spreader, prep bowls, small bar board, quikuts, It would be super cute if you still had a pink dots towel.
