ladies with babies...i need help!

Published Sep. 19, 2008

Friends of mine just had their first baby. I want to bring some food over to the house. What do you want after you have a baby? What keeps well? What freezes well??

 

I know I'm going to make cinnamon rolls and a lasagna.  I was hoping to bring two more dishes.  Daddy is 6'8'' and eats a ton!

I'm not a lady but baked ziti is a good dish and farely easy to prepare. You can prep it in one of the aluminum pan's and they can put it in the oven for 45 minutes on 350 when they're ready to eat it.

If you don't know what it is, I would call some relatives or the new parents themselves and ask what they would like. Vegetable soup sounds like a good idea to me. But that's just me! I think it's great that you are being such a generous and thoughtful person. Congrats to the new parents on their wonderful bundle of joy!

My best friend brought me a Caesar Chicken Pasta Salad with bread sticks. It was wonderful! I'll never forget the way she slipped in the house while I was asleep and set everything up for me. What a doll!

Soups and stews keep well in the fridge or freezer and they are often a complete meal in one dish. Nice and easy for a new mom!

Fresh fruit salad in a container and mix of fresh cut up veggies.

I know after I got home... I felt soooooo fat still. I thought once the baby was out of my belly... I should automatically look like I did before I got pregnant. Boy, that was a shocker to me.

If she's not nursing, take a bottle of wine, or whatever she drink she had to give up while pregnant. Assuming she likes a drink sometimes.

What about Chicken Pot Pie and Pot Roast? They both freeze well.

I was going to bring a variety of food. I'm thinking of adding scotcharoos to the list. That way if they have people over to the house they can offer them something sweet.

It just depends on what that person likes. I know after I got home from having my baby I had spaghetti and ice cream.
