What to bring when visiting a new born?

My husband's good friend had a baby yesterday. My husband is out of the country on business for the next two weeks but I want to stop by and say hello and all of that.  I have already given a gift at the baby shower but what is the norm for visiting a new born?  Do I bring flowers, etc?  (I don't have any close friends who have had kids yet)
Thanks 

Re: What to bring when visiting a new born?

  • I typically bring food. It usually just depends on what I have around the house & if I have the time to cook/bake. In the past, I've brought chocolate, snacky food (crackers, trail mix), cookies, or a frozen meal.  I try to make it something they don't have to use immediately in case they've gotten a lot of other food gifts.  I've also brought little things for the baby, like a hat or stuffed animal.
  • FOOD!  Food is always a good thing to bring. You're thoughtful for asking.

  • Food is great, or maybe even just a gift card somewhere they can run out to and pick up food. We got a lot of flowers and while they are pretty they stunk up the house so we ended up sneezing the whole time and threw them out!! Anything they could eat with 1 hand would be great!
