Whatever you normally would have the gift shouldn't change but maybe you can give her a much nicer card from your heart and let her know how much you care about her without getting her upset.
Reply:Your Welcome, i know this first hand. Report It

Reply:anything you'd buy her before, but i'd focus especially on things that would be relaxing or uplifting for her, like some time at a dayspa or a manicure or something pretty for her home, etc.





NO MUSIC!!! She will always associate that song or CD with the bad time she went through.





Probably no food or restaurant gift certificates or alcohol either, you don't want her to drown her sorrows in food or alcohol.
Reply:I'm not sure, But I am certain that it should not remind her in any way that she had a miscarriage.
Reply:She's still the same person. What would you have bought her before? Buy that now. Her birthday should still be special. Her birthday gifts aen't going to change how she feels about losing the baby....for the better OR the worse. So just shop like always.
Reply:The two are not related. Treat her birthday as what it is.
Reply:A great gift would be a massage. It would be very relaxing and stress relieving for her. Good Luck!
Reply:You are better to give her as a birthday gift a nice gown for sleeping with her husband to make another baby.
Reply:A rose bush (a memory for her "lost" child). There are also necklaces that depict girl and boys that friends of mine have for how many kids they have. One of my friends lost her much wanted baby at 11 weeks and her husband bought her an angel one as a memory of their daughter forever
Reply:Just buy her a gift as if she hasn't had a miscarriage...jsut don't make it baby related. How bout a gift certificate for a manicure and pedicure
Reply:A nice gift certificate. Give her a nice shopping trip with a gift certificate to her favorite shoe store, her favorite mall, or maybe give her a day at the spa, or a massage. Or even her favorite resteraunt!
Reply:Perhaps a nice necklace or braclet with a charm of a flower or perhaps a bracelet of flowers or something like that. I would avoid any type of references towards anything baby. This type of gift would be sentimental in the future as well as currently.
Reply:something to pamper her - maybe a certificate to a spa - anything to let her know how special she will always be to you
Reply:well there is always a gift card. or maybe likea day at the spa. good luck
Reply:Obviously your friend is going through a rough time so if I were you I would definitely get her something very personal and something that might help her relax. You might want to try some aroma therapy bath sets and candles.
Reply:A gift certificate for a massage.
Reply:Obviously this person doesn't want to think about the miscarriage, especially on her birthday, so treat her as if nothing happened (if she wants to talk about it, let her mention it first). Maybe a day at the spa or something that will be relaxing.
Reply:same thing you would've bought her if she hadnt had a miscarraige.. just nothing baby related (obviously?).
Reply:Many things. Just act as if she never mentioned a baby or a miscarraige. Just carry on as if she was herself again. Gift cards, manicures, much more. Good Luck.
