I'm planning for a homebirth and wanted to get a gift for my midwife (and her 2 assistants). Does anyone have any idea what an appropriate gift would be?? When would you give the gift?

I gave her the gift during my at my 6-week follow-up appt. I made a bunch of healthy baked goods and the recipes all neatly wrapped. They loved them!

I would give it to them after the birth at the postpartum visit, with a card. I love sentimental gifts like these jewelry pieces - perfect for a midwife or doula!
As I doula, I would SO love to get the first one as a gift.

@Arden: I was planning on getting the 1st item that you listed for my doula, but I shouldn't have waited because now they are closed for a bit. Maybe I can wait for them to reopen ... but I am wondering if you've seen any other pieces that you've liked since making this rec?

Ugh, almost everything I had saved is gone. Sorry!
I'll send you whatever I ran across today though:

I much prefer the abstract variety, but I ran across this one as well - http://wellstonejewelry.com/goddess_jewelry/ancientgoddess-pgs/birthmates.htm
These made me giggle. A lot. Had to share - http://www.midwiferytoday.com/merchant2/merchant.mv?Store_Code=MT&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=C409RW6
