I will be having my third child in March and was thinking of giving the staff something Arbonne related to maybe peak their interest. Do you all have any ideas of what I could give the nurses and doctor at the hospital.Not sure if the doctor will be male or female (4 different doctors in the practice) but the one male doctor is married. I was thinking about the sample RE9's w/my name and phone # on it.Maybe this is too weird!

maybe one of the small hand creams? I'm sure their hands get dry from all the washing!

That's a great idea Brittany! I think they would go through that in no time and then want more :0)
What about a personal thank you note along with it? Just to say that you sincerely appreciate the care and support they have given? Just a thought.

That is a great idea.. I am having a baby in March. There is only one doctor in my obgyns office but a travel size hand cream is great. At our family doctor I gave one of the nurses a hand cream and he loved it because they wash their hands all the time and they get sooooo dry. A thank you note is good too. Personal.

Congrats you two on baby number 3!
I know on some site, maybe Sandra Tillinghasts? There is something about hand cream for doctors/nurses cannot have mineral oil in it as it breaks down the gloves so our hand cream would be a very good gift!

My daughter is 3 and my son is 2.. Mercy July 2, 02 and Caleb June 2, 03.. 11 months apart. I am nervous about going from 2 to 3 also. It is the first time my husband and I will be out numbered. I figure I know people with 5-6 kids so they did it.. but still. I completely understand.

Our third is the light of our life - BUT going from two to three is WAY harder than one to two!!!!!!!

As a nurse I would definitely say the hand creams. I have many nurses on our team. We all like the creams/lotions. Unwind is good. :)
Good Luck with #3

I am also due in March and planning to do the same thing. I'm making little baggies with hand and foot samples. I will also put my business card inside and I plan to have re9 samples available incase the subject comes up and I can pass them along. I'm very excited about this too.

Thanks! I need to set it so that page pops up everyday so I don't loose sight! It's so "hard" sometimes to stay motivated to do the things I need to do when working full-time too!

Just have to say about babies--going from 3 to 4 is a piece of cake compared to going from 2 to 3!!! It was an adjustment going to 3 from 2, but we barely flinched when #4 came along. So my advice, don't stop at 3, smileys/smiley36.gif
I have three girls and now a baby boy and it is so fun.

I am a Nursing Student and I keep the hand lotion in my pocket. It is fanastic! I also love the cleansing gel. It's nice to get the residue from the foam off.
