Help! What do I get my pregnant friend?

Question

My friend is pregnant with her first child and her birthday is coming up. She’s 10 weeks along and I wanted to buy her some items to help with her pregnancy. What items helped you with your pregnancy?

Answer

Personally, I wouldn’t want baby items for my birthday. Especially when I’m only 10 weeks - does she even know the gender yet? You can get gifts for her baby shower. I would get her something along the lines of a spa gift card or a nail salon gift card. A self-care goodie basket. Anything like that. When I was in my first trimester, I had such a hard time. I was really sick and I felt terrible about myself because of how much my body was changing. All I wanted was to get my hair done or my nails done - anything to make me feel better. She may also be having a good pregnancy so far, but either way you should get her something for herself and not the baby.

Answer

Chocolate, bubble bath, body butter or belly oil, sour candies are good for nausea, gift certificate for a spa day or even just a mani/pedi. 
Really anything to pamper her and make her feel good during pregnancy is a good gift.

Answer

I really like the burts bees belly butter and leg/foot cream!

Answer

Gift certificate to a spa

Answer

Ask her what she’s into snack wise. Then get that. Maybe a bar she can stick onto the side of the tub so she won’t get out when she has a big belly.

Answer

Massage gift certificate (if you want to spend that kind of money). I loved having them towards the middle/end. Thick body butter for belly. Gift certificate to somewhere to buy new bras, because she will need that soon most likely.

Answer

A sexy maternity dress or good maternity leggings. Depending on her style. 
Feeling attractive while pregnant is not easy, so having clothes that flatter a bump really helps confidence. 
My cousin sent me a maternity sweatshirt, that has an added area for once the baby's born it can zip into my sweatshirt for kangaroo care. I wear it everyday.

Answer

Pregnancy pillow

Answer

Have you talked to her about how she is feeling? Like..if she isn't sleeping well you could buy her a oregnsncy pillow! Or you could get her a lotion bundle for stretch marks. You could also get her gender neutral clothing or maybe a keepsake picture frame.

Answer

Preggo pops (if she has morning sickness), pregnancy pillow, microwavable heating pad, gatorade, tylenol, etc..
