Presented in a beautiful, reusable calico bag, our Maternal BaoBags are full of useful products to nurture women on their journeys through pregnancy and birth and beyond. They are provided as a gift through participating pre & postpartum healthcare providers.

Nice little touch after visiting the obstetrician, reminded me of the things I need to consider

Absolutely loved the BaoBag! Filled with amazing information and products perfect for first time parents who may not be aware of the wide variety of products available.

It was such a lovely gift to receive after a scan. Buying for yourself and baby can be extremely overwhelming so to have a starting point with samples was very reassuring and helpful. I have already found some incredible products through this and expect more will become favourites as theyre used.

Great idea and very well received. Always happy with vouchers, freebies and samples
I absolutely loved receiving it. It allows me to try new things and compare different items. Its extremely generous and Im so grateful to receive it

This was such a lovely surprise at my scan - so many useful things to help newborn parents out - I will definitely be using these things and trying new brands I hadnt heard of with my first

Love that I was given this pack, it will come in handy pre and postnatal. Some really good items in the bag

Very grateful to recieve this in my OB appointment. I didnt get this with my last pregnancy and Im sure it would have helped ten fold with my journey to motherhood

A great gift for anxious people in the waiting room at appointments. A lovely a generous distraction and way to make us feel special.
Fantastic bag with lots of useful things for baby and mum. The BaoBag is a great way to help mothers decide which items/brands they might include on their baby shower registry. It is a also a good way to get first time parents thinking about products they need to buy themselves. More inclusions for antenatal and postnatal care of mothers would be useful. For example, hair and skin products that are safe for pregnancy (something I have really struggled with as I haven't had the pregnancy hair and skin glow up) and things for breastfeeding ie hydrogen cooling breast discs.

Everything was great. Used all of it and was very grateful to receive after my daughters stay in special care unit

Lovely bag with lots of useful product options to consider

It was a lovely touch to finish off the calm birth course. It gave me some great new ideas for product purchases and new things to look into that I wouldnt have thought of before.I am grateful that it was offered to me. Thank you.

I put these comments earlier in the survey but thought I would repeat them here. I loved this bag! I think it has a great mix of things for baby and things for me. I feel like so many other bags forget the mum! So it was lovely to feel supported with the belly oil & mocktails. I think the Gidget foundation information is really useful as well, because pregnancy and early parenthood is hard! So its really great to find resources to help. If you were looking to optimise the bags, I would consider something for the dads / partners as they are very often overlooked in the process. I would also appreciate something to do with breastfeeding support or more on postnatal care. But otherwise Im loving the current selection!
Brightened my day and now have some more things to check out during the late night feeds

I like the linen bag itself. I use it to store spare clothes in my nappy bag. Especially love it for its size and able to throw in the washing machine Drawstring is easy to use

Its a really thought gift, it completed our whole experience and has given me some more things to look into which is great!

Great to receive this pack as part of our parental education program! It will allow me to test a few things to decide whether I want to purchase them in the future.

Love the idea to give mums a BaoBag helps so much expecially for new mums gives you comfort and a head start on where to shop for your baby and things you might not have thought about I loved mine !!
I think it is a great gift to receive from a hospital. A good range of useful items when having a newborn and some handy ideas for later on too. Everybody loves a freebie!
