Ok so all at once fiveof the seven women in my department are pregnant, I am not one of them thank goodness, so I want to make a little basket for our supply desk, kind of a pregnancy survival kit.  And I wondering what all to put in it,  I was thinking preggo pops, saltines, and bottled water possibly some tums, but what else?  Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.  Just the kind of things you might need or want while sitting at work all day and growing a human.

Wow, what a sweet idea!!!

Um, I dunno how much you want to spend, but you might throw in some granola bars or cereal bars for those "holy crap I'm suddenly starving and I need to eat something now" moments.  Or maybe some fruit or something like that?  I don't know if it's something you want to give once or if you're going to keep it stocked or what.  Maybe a bottle of Tylenol too.

Jar of pickles and a empty icecream tub (just kidding).

I'd put a few snacks in it, maybe some nice hand lotion, a small hand mirror that has letter stickers on it that says "you look beautiful today".

i lived on tums LOL! lotion was always good too, since my belly stretched alot i liked the lotion because it eased the itching.  the parenting magazines are nice to read during breaks

Peppermints. They help with the nausea.

 I like all the ideas mentioned above. Maybe little pieces of chocolate for those pesky cravings.

You're sweet to do that for your co workers :)
