I think that you should get something for her. I think that she would appreciate someone focusing on just her. Good luck!

DO NOT get something for the baby!!!!
It's HER birthday, not the baby's and she's probably feeling just a little overshadowed by "the belly" at this point.
People have given you a lot of good ideas, the only thing I'd add is that personally, I think spending a day with friends is a really great gift too. Spend some time with her to take her mind off the baby, and especially the impending birth!!
Go out to eat, go to the movies, go to the spa, make her feel special, she's a woman, not just a womb!

Most people buy stuff for the baby when a woman is pregnant. When I was pregnant four years ago, I appreciated very much when at least two of my present barers actually brought me things at the baby shower. Especially since it is her birthday and Not the baby's birthday, please buy a gift only for her enjoyment.
A nice pyjamer set to wear when she goes to the delivery room or a good cream to help some of the stretch marks that she may have or just a lovely day dress to encourage her to feel nice and slim again after releasing the baby and its accompanied weight.
Don't buy any clothes for her to wear before she deliver's because
she won't need that much longer. Good luck. A nice perfume would also be nice. The best thing is that you will know your friend's liking a lot beeter than I do but this note will help you eliminate what not to buy.

provide her a pedicure! Or a modern-day certificates for a pedicure. Or take her out for a particular lunch and the two certainly one of you get pedicures! Pregnant women persons now and lower back have a complicated time accomplishing to get their shoes on and their ft are neglected. as properly, whilst going into the transport room, she'd in all probability desire to have attractive ft. :o) Set her up for an afternoon of pampering. A facial, a rub down, a nail trimming, some chocolate, and a few particularly effective smelling hand cream. She'll quickly be changing a great style of diapers and would need chapped arms so each and every time she sits all the way down to take a seat back and positioned that lotion on, she'll remember her special day with a great pal.

Give her a gift card to her favorite place that she buys clothing at. That way after the baby is born she can go get her a new outfit or something beacuse normally after you have a baby you sometimes don'e fit back into your clothing for a while.

Get something for her. Everything'll be about the baby soon enough. Maybe a gift certificate for a massage or make a 'relaxation kit' (a basket with bubble bath, lotion, a candle, etc.).

A pregnancy massage is a great idea (muscles ache, and as long as it is a pregnancy massage they will stay away from HOT SPOTS that can cause uterine contractions), they can cost between $40-60 for an hour.
(She will be getting a lot og things for the baby- get her something for her, that is unique)

Definately get something just for her, maybe a gift certificate for a massage, or nails, or maybe having her hair done. Maybe to her favorite resturant, just something to pamper her, she will appreciate it , which she could use for after she has the baby.

Something for her, she needs to feel special-and know that ppl are thinking about her and not just the baby. You could try a massage-I'm sure her feet is killing her and her body is tired.

get her something. she would like someone to concentrate on her instead of the baby. everyone else might bring something for the baby and you will bring something for her and besides she might have a lot of baby stuff from the baby shower. so get her something she would probably appreciate it that someone was thinking of her.
