I went to a babyshower yesterday and after lots of thought and lots of ideas from others... I got a breastfeeding gift basket together for this young girl (well she is around 23 so not too young - but younger than me). It was such a hit her sisters and friends said they want to make sure Kathie comes to their baby showers whenever they get pregnant. I put in a little bit of everything. I had breastpads - two different types, bottles of water, gentian violet, a nursing shirt, a belly band for under regular shirts, lansinoh, baby lotion, baby outfit, diaper cream, breastfeeding book and handouts, a piece of paper with breastfeeding tips, Phone numbers for myself, the local LLL, and WIC breastfeeding group. A paper with breastfeeding info sites and Bulliten boards (this one included), breastfeeding clothes websites and my pediatrucians website on tips and meds and stuff. There were samples of all kinds of baby products and lotions. And I cant remember what else. It helped with me breastfeeding that I had a lot of things laying around that I could pack a few things up for her to get an idea of and what she would like. (books, breastpads and such).I think it was a huge hit. We will see. She was really pysched up about nursing. It was great.
