Congrats first off! I just had a baby 7 mo. ago and my hubby got me some wonderful gifts... and there are so many great gifts you can get your wife. My dh got me a massage twice, which preg. ladies just love to get b/c they ache so much. You can get her a gift card for Babies R Us so she can get some stuff for baby and/or a gift card to her fav. department store so she can get clothes for after the baby (something for her to look forward to), jewelery is always welcome (though avoid rings b/c of the fingers swelling at this time) and women love romantic books, movies & novels at this time b/c usually they don't feel very sexy at this time and things like this make them feel really good about themselves and lastly (this is a really neat one) having the baby's ultrasound pic matted & framed very tastefully - this is a great gift for mom's to be! HTH & GL! :)

When I was pregnant, about 7 months or so, my husband arranged for me to have a massage. This was amazing as the establishment had a special pregnancy pillow that allowed me to lay on my stomach for a full hour and be massaged. It was such a treat because as you know, once a wife is big, all she can do is lay on her back or on her side when she rests or sleeps. Something else my husband did was arranged for me to have a makeover. I was able to have my hair cut and permed along with a pedicure and manicure. Just another idea tossed out there, but I am sure whatever you decide to do for your wife, she will love and appreciate it!

I agree on the massage. You can generally find one for around $60-$80 for a pregnancy massage. Just make sure they have someone who can do prenatial massage. They will have had special classes for it. Your wife will love it. I know if my husband surprized me with one I would be so happy and grateful. I'm currently about 25 weeks and could really really use one. Also if you want to get her a special treat after the baby is born ask them about a massage for after. One lady who did the pregnancy one offered a package deal with 4 massages in it 3 before the baby was born and one after at 2 weeks postpartum after that baby comes the time alone for the massage and relaxation would be a godsend. Assuming she wont fall asleep and miss it!LOL!

i admire the assumption of a sprint magazine that retains music of all the failings that he would be lacking, except you experience such as you write him letters that already try this. if so, you're able to additionally print out or replica all the letters and positioned them mutually right into a e book. photographs of you as you progression by being pregnant may well be an remarkable further touch to the magazine. different issues that are evoked: a tshirt with some style of "military dad" or "my daddy's a hero" style factor on it that he ought to take back with him. while the toddler is born you're able to additionally make a small plaster solid of the toddler's hand print and that way he might have something tactile that he ought to touch and experience that connects him to the toddler for those final 5 months he's away. the only different factor i thought-approximately become a small basket of activities toys. One vast mitt and 2 small mitts and a baseball, a small nerf soccer etc good grief. i can not think of absolutely everyone might provide you **** for a query like this. i would be hormonal, yet i'm over here crying a sprint as I write this thinking on the subject of the sacrifices of your loved ones and households like yours. vast hug. thank you for all which you and your husband are giving as much as maintain something human beings risk-free.

Things that will make her feel sexy that are not pregnancy size. Like low rise panties(I wore Victorias secret, never maternity) A sexy new bra to show off her now larger breasts, some perfume, or a gift certificte to a salon to get her hair & or nails done. Maybe even a gift certificate to a spa for a massage

A robe, matching pj's and slippers make a nice gift and are a good choice for the hospital! Make sure they will fit during labor and after. A nursing nightgown is also a good choice. (If she plans to breastfeed). Body lotion, perfume and jewelry are also nice gifts that can still fit! A cameo necklace that will fit a picture of your new family would be loved by any new mother. Good luck and happy shopping!

a massage. coupons for helping out extra with the baby after it's born, or for a night out once a week after the baby is born. Stuff to help her feel pretty, like bath and body goodies. Gift certificate for a pedicure for right before the baby is due. Comfy pajamas and robe for in hospital and afterwards and houseshoes of course. It's easy, ask her!

It's sweet that you are thinking of her!!! My hubby surprised me one Christmas with a pendant of a mother cradling a baby. You could try getting her a back massager, or a gift certificate to a day spa/ hairdresser/ nail salon. While she's out getting pampered, you could arrange for someone to come in and clean the house for her, so she won't have to. You could get her a nice soft bath robe or those really soft slippers. Horray for you and congrats on the baby!!!!!!!!

NOT CLOTHES! When I was pregnant I wanted parfume, and comfy shoes. She might like jewelry- like a necklace with a pendant with a mother and baby on it. Oh I know- look on the internet for WILLOWTREE. They are figurines. There is one of an expecting mother and she has her hands on her stomach I think, anyway it is beautiful and it will always remind her of when she was carring the baby. Pregnant women are so beautiful!! Good luck daddy!

What about a silver chain with a pendant of a stork and baby.
If you can't find one in a jewelery shop check out ebay.
Women love jewelry and what better way to tie the gift in to her pregnancy.
