My girlfriend is about to have her first child. She has a baby book and will get a lot of other things at her baby shower. I'm looking for some advice preferably from some one who's had a kid and can advise me on something that can help her throughout her pregnancy, And would make a good x-mass gift. She's about 13 weeks.

a pregnancy or body pillow--trust me, getting a good night's sleep gets harder & harder!!
also, gift certificate for a pedicure, a wax, etc... as it's hard to bend that far later on!

My favorite 3 things while I was pregnant was the body pillow, a Belly Book, and spa socks!! The belly book was broke down into each trimester and it was like a journal just for the pregnancy and it's worded so that it would be a great gift for the baby once it's older!! I still enjoy looking through it and reading what I wrote after each appointment and what cravings I had each trimester!!
The Spa Socks are something I got from my husband from Bath & Body Works!! You rub on a nice, theraputic lotion/cream and then put on these socks and it truely takes away a lot of stress!! Good Luck!!

Here's something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:
Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it! Also, pregnancy and baby trivia.
The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.
Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.
Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.

A gift certificate to a series of massages while she is pregnant. Her body will be undergoing alot of changes and a prenatal massage will make her feel more relaxed. And she can save a couple for after having the baby.

something for her and not the baby buy her some jewlery that always makes a woman feel good and if she already has pregnancy books then what more could she need.. Unless you want to buy her a pregnancy pillow that will be good also

I would suggest a body pillow or a gift certificate to old navy online or somewhere like that, that has cute and affordable maternity clothes.

Oooh I know, I know! A case of maalox, haha! Or if you want something a little more presentable and sweet, many spas offer prenatal massages and spa treatments. It really will take the edge off when she's tense in her last days before delivery...
