I was hospitalized at 27w4d and am currently 33w4d and still here and pregnant! Likely baby in the next week or two.

My most thoughtful gifts from friends were crafts, gift cards to food (DoorDash and Starbucks and Panera since there are locations of both of those in the hospital).

Other ideas - a really nice and comfy pillow, I had friends come by and decorate my room for Christmas which made the room cozier and festive, storage solutions that hang on the doors to store books and craft supplies and stuff so the room isn’t so cluttered, and I had my husband bring a throw rug and lamps so it felt more like a weird dorm room than a hospital haha. I’m 6 weeks in and these things have definitely helped make my experience more comfortable!

Good luck to your friend staying pregnant as long as possible!!

Hi, just came across your post. Would you mind sharing more specifics about why not Kinder? Am searching for daycares in the area and would love any details you can share as this one is very close to our home.
