Baby Shower...

That way, you're sharing your daughters love to another generation and linking it to a happy occasion. It's a bit melancholy, but it has really helped our family with our grief.

Best wishes to you, hope you find the right answer for you.

Thank you Joa.

A lovely thought and exactly what I have decided to do! But I have to say I did not do it consciously!

Both my daughters had bunny comforters and both daughters (up until recent events) still cuddled them every night, aged 13 and 15!

So I have decided on a gender neutral comforter and teething toy set, it's organic and looks lovely!

Thanks for everyone's input, it is appreciated.

Really glad you found something suitable.
My great niece was called Daisy so when I need to buy baby/child presents, I've been buying something with a little daisy on it. The parents may not even notice, but I know and it gives me huge comfort.
Grief is a strange thing for sure.
