Seeing Double
Thursday, January 25, 2007No matter how many times the doctor tells you, it might be a little bit difficult for it to finally sink in that you are having twins. Even though you have looked at the ultrasound with your own eyes and you have begun preparations with the hospital staff, there are a lot of things that you will need to do in order to prepare for the arrival of two precious babies. The main thing that you need to remember is that you will be more than prepared as long as you put together a great checklist that can help you every step of the way. This is the time where you can rally together all of your friends and family members for help and support. After all, when you first come home from the hospital, you might begin to forget what getting a decent amount of sleep feels like. In addition to the help around the house after your twins arrive, you need to make sure that you have plenty of supplies on hand at all times, including diapers, extra clothing and bedding, etc. When you want to shed a little bit of light on the double addition to your happy family, you might enjoy throwing a post delivery shower for your twins. In lieu of pricey gifts for this party, you can let guests know that the simple gesture of diapers will be greatly appreciated. This kind of an affair can be very laid back and a nice time for friends and family to enjoy your precious babies to welcome them into the world. Besides, with such a party, you might just have a couple of minutes for yourself that you can sit back and relax while Aunts and Grandmothers cuddle with your twins! by: Mama Bebe & Co.

Thoughtful Gifts For Welcoming Twins Into the Family
Tuesday, January 09, 2007Ask any mother of twins and you'll get a very similar answer that twins are a double blessing and a very big challenge. The pregnancy is usually difficult simple due to the extra weigh and stress on the mother's body. With some exceptions many twins weigh together what a single baby would enter the world weighing other twins may weigh 8LBS each. Once the twins are here, they need as much care as any other babies. You can expect the same 1AM (and 3AM and 5AM) feedings as with a single baby, it's just that you'll be doing it twice and many mothers remark that when one twin cries - the other one does too. If you're about to welcome twins into your family as a mother yourself or a relative, there are some thoughtful gifts you can give the new parents that they will truly appreciate. Sleep is a hot commodity during those early weeks and Mom especially might be feeling dragged down from the rigors of pregnancy and delivery. Also she may be recovering from a C-section. Offer your services to sit with the twins during the day so she can nap - time to rest is truly golden to new parents. Also, housework and meals tend to go by the wayside during those early days when everyone adjusting to new schedules, offer to cook or clean. If you want to give a beautiful gift that the new parents can use, consider a Twin Baby Gift Basket. This special twin basket is filled with lots of wonderful items. The basket includes two cotton sweaters with matching hats, two Gund bath mits, two bottles and pacifiers, two pairs of crochet knit booties, embossed silver plate picture frame and a CD. This basket can be customized to any combination of twins and will make a stunning and much appreciated gift. by: Mama Bebe & Co.

A Bracelet for Mommy
Tuesday, January 02, 2007With Valentine's Day coming up, new parents may feel a bit overwhelmed about gift giving, but here is a perfect gift for a new mommy. A Personalized Silver Single Mommy Bracelet can have up to twelve letters on one bracelet along with set birthstones for the child. If you have more than one child, there are also double and triple stand bracelets that will make outstanding gifts. The bracelets come in sizes from 6 1/2-inches to 8-inches and it's easy to find out what size she wears. Simply wrap a cloth measuring tape around her wrist and whatever the measurement is will be the correct size for her bracelet. Approximately half an inch will be added to the bracelet size to accommodate the clasp on the bracelet. You can personalize it even further by using family nicknames instead of given names to make it a really personal gift. If your baby boy named Richard goes by the nickname "Richie" or "Scooter" use one of those names on her bracelet, it will be much more of a mommy bracelet than a formal name she doesn't use for your child on a regular basis. The square silver blocks with letters offset nicely with the rounded beads to form an overall elegant design that she'll love. If you already have children, a double or triple strand bracelet will fit the bill nicely and give a gift she'll adore wearing and showing off! by: Mama Bebe & Co.
Gifts for Baby Boys
When you find out someone near and dear has a baby boy on the way - it's time to start shopping! Make those newborn days and nights a little easier with a personalized layette set that includes a 100% cotton interlock blanket, onesie, hat, soft terry velour hooded towel, bib and burp pad. A nice soft washcloth is also included. All pieces in this set are monogrammed with his name. If you'd prefer to get clothing for the little man on the way, you can't go wrong with a set of buntings; that is a sleeper that looks like a large nightgown with a drawstring or elastic around the bottom hem to keep baby's legs from kicking the sleeper up and catching a chill. These are very useful for the early days as they make for easy diaper changes and then a footed sleeper to keep him nice and toasty warm as babies have a hard time regulating their body heat in the early days. A fun gift to add in would be a onesie made just for a little guy is adorably done in camouflage and reads,"Major Mess". Although he won't be bathing in a tub of any kind his first few weeks until his cord drops off and heals; a baby bath gift set will make a wonderful gift that the new parents will use often after he starts taking a bath on a regular basis. Buying a gift for baby shouldn't be a chore, make it fun and if you have had children of your own, remember the items you really wound up needing with your child and it will make narrowing down your choices for gifts even easier. by: Mama Bebe & Co. |
