Change Sucks asked:
I’m going to my husband’s cousins baby shower tomorrow (YAY!) for her first baby… the gift I got her is all totally for the baby-a little pack of diapers, wipes, a toy, baby clothes… I’ve always wanted to buy something JUST for the mommy, like maybe a pedicure kit, some candy, just fun little things… or maybe give her like, a blockbuster gift card, candy, microwave popcorn… something for her/her husband to do together for them to have “them” time… you get the idea-but nothing “big”.
Do you think that’s a good idea or would it be not so occassion appropriate?
I’m so excited to read that people think it’s a good idea… I’ve already had three babies, and some form of shower for each and I wish that someone had done it for me, but for some reason I just didn’t know if it was quite right since it’s a “baby shower”, you know?

OOOOOHHHHHHHH that is soooo appropriate! I had a friend give me a “coupon book” for free babysitting each redeemable for one hour, there were 10 coupons! It was nice to schedule an evening out without baby along and all it cost my friend was her time and the paper she used.
