We didn't use an agency, we did a private adoption and we gave her gifts. We gave our Sons Bmom a bag of stuff for the hospital, pj's, flip-flops, lotions and body spray and all kinds of toiletries. Magazines, crosswords and snacks. We also got her a digital camera. We knew form her mom that she wanted one. We got the case for it and a memory card and a picture printer.
She was able to take alot of pictures of the baby which was really nice.
We then sent her a necklace for her birthday. Which you can use this as a present after the birth too, it is a heart wrapped around a triangle. It represents the triad, The Birthmom, The Child, and the Adoptive Parents, all brought together by love. We ordered it from an ad in Adoptive Families magazine. It comes in silver and gold.
She loved it.
Good Luck, whatever it is and comes from your heart will be good.
