After Olivia we made up a basket of coke and choocolate and scotch...(his known faves!) and a thank you letter. He was a legend at her birth, despite shoulder distocia, and I had a blissful birth. (I also orgnaised a voucher for a restaurant for my midwife who was just amazing.)
With Charlie we moved interstate during the pregnancy, so saw 2 OB's....so I sent a thank you letter and a photo to my 1st OB, and the same to my 2nd OB (who missed the birth!)
For Lexie, the same OB missed the birth, but I still sent a thank you letter & photo, as he had been fantastic through an emotionally very difficult pregnancy (and CVS etc etc). And my midwife at Lexies birth was phenomenal, so we organised her a restaurant voucher and a thank you letter for her. We had a hug and a happy cry together when I left the hospital!
On all 3 occasions of birth DH also organised a basket of Haighs chocolates for the midwives in the post natal ward.......I was very lucky with all three of my hospital stays that all of the midwives were just lovely, so I am really glad DH organised this for them as a thank you.
