Gift For Expecting Wife
Your wife is pregnant and it’s her birthday but plenty of the usual options are completely out what with the expanding belly, limited mobility and the big list of foods and activities she can no longer partake in- what to do? This article will give you plenty of gift Ideas for your pregnant wife.
Vouchers/Cash for Clothing
With her body about to change rapidly, she will be unable to wear the vast majority of her wardrobe- this will seriously affect even the least girly woman. A mini shopping spree at your expense will definitely help. Choose a shop that is easy to get to or go fo an online option but make sure it has a no-hassle returns and exchanges policy.
If you hate the cash or vouchers option then soft and comfy clothing items like maternity trousers, tops or hoodies are versatile and hard to beat. Choose items in her favourite colours, or the colours she wears habitually and when purchasing get help on the sizing if you’re not sure.
Another ideas in this category is an elegant nightgown and slippers- for when it’s time to go to the hospital and for afterwords.
Pampering
Pregnant ladies very often have problems with their skin be it dryness, oiliness or stretch marks. A trip to a beauty salon or spa could work wonders especially if they have a package or options for pregnant women.
If your wife like to paint her toenails a large belly will make this impossible! Score a pile of thoughtfulness points with a voucher for a luxury pedicure.
Note- long, hot baths to soak in are a no-no so bubble bath and the like are out, as are most heavily perfumed products. Natural is best.
Books
As mobility becomes more of an issue, reading becomes a pastime for many pregnant women. Go for a browse in Amazon for some recommended books on parenthood, pregnancy or pick the latest work of her favouriete author.
Tip- if you haven’t a clue what to buy then just get the titles and authors of some books she has read and then get suggestions from Amazon of other books that other buyers also liked, it’s not a hard and fast guarantee but the odds are in your favour that you’ll pick something she’ll like this way.
Another thing to consider is an ipod, or music for the ipod if she already has one like some relaxation music.
Pregant Wife Gift No-Nos
There is a tendency for everyone to buy only practical gifts related to the pregnancy or for items for the baby. If it’s your wife’s birthday then keep the focus on her and get her a gift that is solely for her, this way you can help her to feel like the woman you love.
