My coworker is going through a bit of a rough time and I’m trying to think of something small I could bring her to make her day a bit better.
It cannot contain any alcohol. It cannot contain sugar or carbs (diabetes). She has several young children at home if it helps and is expecting another. I’m also not looking to overwhelm her, so I need it to not be overly obnoxious.
Normally I like to bring sweets to people in scenarios like this, but I can’t in this scenario and I’m at a loss.
Thanks all.
Sounds like a small gift + a card/note might be a good idea then.
I would suggest something simple like a coffee card, but if you want to be mindful of caffeine intake for pregnant women then maybe an alternative like a box of caffeine-free tea that’s soothing and calming? Or perhaps aromatherapy in the same vein if she’s not allergic to scents?
Moms with small children are stressful enough on a good day let alone going through rough times, something soothing can hopefully make her day more endurable.
Plus a get well card(or something appropriate for the event) with a short hand-written note can go a long way.
