We bought a set to make clay ornaments of her handprint and footprint. The hospital actually gave us extra ink pads to do more but I forgot about it.

@Mrsbells: Any prints! Like a newborn print of their hands and feet in plaster or something similar.

I haven't yet. I keep planning on doing it, but never seem to get around to it.

My MIL bought a clay set so we did ornaments of her hands and feet over Thanksgiving. But if she hadn't done that, we probably wouldn't have bothered.

We did salt dough ornaments when she was 5 months old, but we forgot to do any hand/foot prints when she was a newborn. I'm pretty sad about it

I did footprints for DD only because her foot was super funky when she came out that I wanted to preserve that. (She was so squished in me that her foot was pointing out instead of in)

We didn't get any from the hospital. I was gonna make some prints to hang in her room but never got around to it. I did make these for Halloween though...

I asked if they did it at my hospital in the nicu, and they said they had stuff but rarely did it. I wish I'd pushed it.

We have the ones on paper from the hospital. Daycare made a hand print Xmas ornament for us last year. That was awesome! I totally forgot about it and just found it when I was decorating our Xmas tree.

We just did the hospital ones. We stamped their foot on the hospital birth certificate thing.

Not for DS...
One thing I really wish I had done is gotten DD's footprints. Not sure why I want them, though. I do have a memory box in my closet with a photo of her, and a few items from the hospital, and I wonder if there is one in there. I haven't dared to look in the box, though.

I did newborn ink prints in his baby book. we tried to do clay ones, but it didn't work out. i think we left it too late because he was super wiggly by the time we tried!

The NICU did a foot print for us but we never did them ourselves. I'm regretting it now becuase I already find myself forgetting how super tiny he actually was. Mommy fail!

Nope. We do have her newborn footprints in ink, though. That's enough for me.
