Welcome to a new world! I would suggest a special little blanket/afghan ...there are some really simple patterns available and can be used as the baby grows. I've made one each for all the Gk's as they grew older they used them as TV wraparounds. Ask yr daughter what colour she would like though ,as the the younger gen don't seem to want the pastel colours..I , like all the other crocheters, would be more than happy to help you along...choosing a pattern orif you come stuck. Exciting time ahead.
