Gift idea?

Question

Not sure where to post this but my best friend is having her twins next week. What should I get her as a gift for just herself? Already got baby presents!

Answer

As a mom who just had twins, I second the gift certificate for a hair salon. I've been meaning to go since they've been born, so if I had a GC it would be so much easier to just make that appointment already.

Or a basket filled with some of her favorite things she can enjoy when she has a couple minutes to herself - a favorite magazine, nice lotion ( because sometimes more days than you intend go by without a shower, and smelling nice can be a huge moral boost!), good chocolates, cozy pj's, chapstick, cute hairband (again, a quick way to feel like a human who put a little effort in without actually having to put in said effort!),  stuff like that. She's going to be BUSY for the next little while and it's really nice to remember that mom is still who she used to be, and not just the exhausted feed machine she's going to feel like for the next few months!!

Also can I kindly recommend you also bring a freezer meal or some muffins or something easy and quick for her to eat?  Time for eating is so hard to come by, much less cooking or baking, so food is GOLD when it's already made!!  I've shed happy tears eating freezer meals those first few weeks lol!

Answer

A gift certificate for a massage or her favorite hair salon ❤️
