Loved the bag. Received it from the pharmacy when I was in there getting medicine for my sick newborn. Was such a welcome gift and loved all the products in it. I love to get the samples as I can try things out before committing to buy the bigger size of things. My favourite are the wipes & nappy samples - so handy to test out these every day items before committing to purchase.

I love the idea of the BaoBag and think it's a wonderful gift to help new mums or mums-to-be feel special. I just have a few ideas:1) I had to request this bag from my OBGYN, it is perhaps an opportune time to actively promote this bag in OBGYN clinics/private hospitals with posters or a flyer so mums don't miss out. I learnt about it through my own research on social media.2) I love the waterdrops however it would be great to have edible samples too, particularly Mini + Me, Milky Goodness cookies, Pinky's Boobie Foods, Hydralyte, other lactation/breastfeeding/pregnancy nutritional items, or vouchers for these companies.3) It would be great to have some information on regular annual events/expos, particularly the PBC Expo and One Fine Baby Expo. I already know about these through my own research however they are great places to visit for mums who are feeling overwhelmed and unsure.4) I'd love to see more maternity clothing pamphlets/information/vouchers in the bag, particularly as I have just received the prenatal bag.5) The belly oil was wonderful but I think what mums really need is some self-care/pampering, so something like a pregnancy-safe shower steamer or bubble bath item or facial cream... something that a new mum can look at and go, "ooo, that will be so lovely to use".

I think its lovely to receive this in hospital, especially for your first baby. Its nice to try the samples out & see if they suit your needs, especially if you havent tried that particular product before. I also love the bag it is presented in & use it again for other things.

Great bag. We loved receiving it. Super kind of the lady at the pharmacy. So many quality products and things I'd never heard of before. Great way to get different products out to the community
This bag is a great introduction to products and provides a lot of good information particularly for a first time mum who doesnt have many people around her how has young children so had to rely on getting information else where rather than through family and friends

Receiving a Baobag was such a delightful surprise! It's a fantastic way to discover new baby products and essentials. The bag itself is a thoughtful touch, perfect for storing baby items or using as a diaper bag on the go.

When I first got handed the bag I did think oh no it's going to be full of junk mail. I was really pleasantly surprised. I really like the bag and spent the afternoon reading the magazine.

The baobag was a great surprise to receive from Haven after our scan, and it is a great starter tool into the service and offering that Baobag provide. I will definitely be recommending this website to my friends and family as it is a great and dependable tool to help parents of babies!
As a first time parent, its great to see the range of products that are available and what come as recommended from experts in the field. There is a wide network of information out there and sometimes its over whelming so to be able to try out small bits is awesome

We were really excited to receive the bag after an expensive scan and then when I actually opened the bag realised there were really good products in it! Even better than the Nsw government bag. Maybe a tote bag with a handle would make it better and I could reuse the bag.

Felt like a special little bonus that I was not expecting at my 13 week scan.

The baobag is such a great idea to give out to new mum's. I really enjoyed trying some new products and brands I hadn't used before.
Love the bag! Its also allowed me to give some additional things that I already received in 2022s bag to my parents so we have them at their place when we visit. Its such a great idea and provides so many useful brands and trial items so you can then start to learn what you like for your bub.

It would be nice to include a small book for babies in the bao bag. Thats something parents and babies can hold on for many years and will remember Baobag

It was such a lovely surprise, and made me a whole lot more comfortable with meeting my OB for the first time. Eased anxiety knowing we were on the same page about things given the bags inclusions. And its a pretty bag.

Firstly I just want to say a big thank you! This is my third pregnancy and I still remember receiving my very first BaoBag back in 2014. It's a really lovely gesture and such a surprise to receive all these goodies which certainly come into good use whether at hospital whilst having baby or at home. I really appreciate receiving sample sizes of brands that I may have never heard of before. I really do enjoy trying new products and supporting new businesses.Thank you so much.
Such a great gift for a new mum. Quality trusted brands and an excellent variety of gifts. Good size trial samples. Absolutely loved what I got in my baobag
