Maybe some cookies or an edible arrangement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504986 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 10:13:58 +0000 Alivoo01 504986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think an edible arrangement would be lovely! Something "healthy" as I'm sure they get plenty of chocolates/cookies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504711 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 06:21:41 +0000 MaisyMay 504711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I took the baby by to see them as my specialists weren't the ones to deliver LO. They did ask us to send a birth announcement, and we'll do that once we pick them up tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504032 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 18:31:40 +0000 sandy 504032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We gave our OB a nice bottle of champagne and chocolate truffles. I felt very bonded to him after LO's delivery </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504017 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 18:22:17 +0000 doodlepoodle 504017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, actually! I hadn't really planned on it but I was off for a week at Christmas time (WAY post delivery, 6 months!) and I made cookies and took a box with thank you cards and a birth announcement to my OB and her nurses then also to our L&amp;D staff, lactation consultant and my anesthesiologist (he was AMAZING and I'll never forget it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504013 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 18:18:37 +0000 MarieJ 504013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. I sent a very beautiful Edible Arrangement. She loved it! I was very appreciative of everything she did for LO &amp; I, so I had to show my gratitude. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-504004 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 18:10:22 +0000 hellocupcake 504004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to do something too. She was amazing and went above and beyond what her job entails. After talking to friends about their labor experience I realized just how amazing her and her staff really were. My appointment is in two weeks but I'm thinking of taking cupcakes (: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503990 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 17:55:09 +0000 pastemoo 503990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an NP the whole pregnancy so no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503560 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:59:47 +0000 rachiecakes 503560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sent a giant cookie arrangement from Cheryl's. They're individually wrapped, so they're away from germs and can easily be tossed in a purse or pocket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503552 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:57:39 +0000 mediagirl 503552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. No one got gifts, they were just doing their job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503544 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:56:50 +0000 sorrycharlie 503544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved my OB! I didn't send a thing..oops. I thanked him profusely in the delivery room on his way out though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503509 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:44:00 +0000 immabeetoo 503509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt like my Ob went above and beyond working with me on a few things- we moved out of state but I'm going to mail a card and Starbucks gift card to her and the sonographer I saw weekly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503503 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:42:45 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 503503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Yep-that's exactly what we did. I did an edible arrangement just like this one:</p> <p>[attach=2389/13/mgms39.475x410.s_HoneyBear8878_May001_w.jpg]</p> <p>I took it and our birth announcement with me to my 6 week PP appointment. The birth announcement had a picture of my OB holding baby as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503495 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:40:37 +0000 HabesBabe 503495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't give anyone any sort of gift (nurses, OB, etc.). I had a really good experience, but I didn't feel like I should or that I wanted to give anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503476 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:32:20 +0000 Bluebonnet 503476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought about it (briefly) when I was about to pop. I wanted to give her something, but couldn't think of anything and then LO was born and I didn't have time to figure it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503464 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:27:29 +0000 MamaG 503464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took cookies at my last appointment. Some of my appointments were post lunch as well and I would occasionally bring in treats for the staff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503460 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:26:04 +0000 GrapeCrush 503460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i just sent him a birth announcement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503456 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:24:58 +0000 Mrsbells 503456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: Yes I think I will do the same too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503451 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:24:13 +0000 Andrea 503451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, no, don't like him that much! I gave gifts to L&amp;D, recovery staff, and my doula. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503447 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:23:05 +0000 plantains 503447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: I feel bad too, I love my OB and didn't giver her anything. I'll have to do something when number 2 comes round. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503441 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:20:50 +0000 yoursilverlining 503441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: don't feel bad! My OB was really surprised when I gave the wine to her and said that birthing babies was gift enough itself. I got the vibe it wasn't very common to give a gift after birth. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503431 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:17:32 +0000 Mrsbells 503431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow I didnt give my OB anything. Now I feel bad. and I really liked her too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503429 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:16:22 +0000 yoursilverlining 503429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave my OB a really (really!) nice bottle of wine at my 6 week pp appointment. We both love booze, so it worked! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503420 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:13:40 +0000 blackbird 503420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the same thoughts. I was thinking cupcakes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-send-their-ob-a-gift-post-delivery#post-503399 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:07:23 +0000 chopsuey 503399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my OB and his staff.<br /> I'm thinking about taking something with me when I go in for my 6 week appt. </p> <p>Has anyone gifted their OB? If so, with what?<br /> I was thinking a gift basket, taking in lunch, edible arrangement.. ? </p>
