Answer
I wouldn't get her a gift. I understand you want to do something in memory. That is nice. I lost my preemie baby at three months old, and my friend made a memorial type display for her resting place one year, not for birthday though. Just around that difficult time.

My friend is the best b/c no matter what or when she is there to let me vent, cry, shout, or ignore. She also gets me little angel somethings, I am christian. Nobody else I know has done anything since the loss except my mom in law. She gets me rememberance jewelry whenever. But not for birthday.

I always donate my money for any sick kids charity, legit of course. And childrens hospitals do have programs of all sorts.

If you want to do something just be there.

The plant thing is a nice idea though. Once I own my own place I am going to plant a tree as something to care about and nurture, sort of a redirect.

What store carries a good selection of the smallest preemie clothes (1-3 pound size)?

My friends just had a baby who weighs 1.5 pounds. The baby will be in the hospital for 2 months. I know clothes aren't practical, but I want to give them a couple of sleepers/hats anyway, in addition to some other things. If you have been in this situation yourself, what are some other gifts that you appreciated or could have used, either for yourself or the baby? I'm already planning on offering housecleaning help and meals.

Thanks!
