Need some ideas on what to get a pregnant lady for Valentine’s Day? Well, you’ve come to the right place, because I asked a bunch of pregnant ladies what they’d like on that special day of love and here’s what they said.
CLEANING SERVICE VISIT
If you don’t think house cleaning is romantic then you’ve never had to clean a toilet – or a bathtub while pregnant – this is love in its purest form. Homejoy and Molly Maid are a great place to start.
PRENATAL MASSAGE
Ah, the glorious rub down when everything aches is somethin’ damn special. Look for places that have a “Mother’s Massage”, “Prenatal Package”, etc. because if the spa you’re dealing with isn’t familiar with pregnancy massage they might be a twitchy about rubbing down a pregnant lady. Check out ratings on Yelp or just do a Google search for spas in your area to see what gets great feedback – accidentally sending your pregnant partner to a rub-and-tug isn’t very romantic. Try one from you local posh hotel or a beautiful spa.
MANI PEDI
Same idea as the prenatal massage – it’s wonderful to feel pampered when you sometime feel like a land manatee. These nail polishes from Butter are gorgeous, free of crap and would go nicely with a gift card.
MATERNITY PILLOW
These are just glorious and help your lady get comfortable in bed. This would be my first choice, but this one supports her belly AND back and this one is a little more nimble if you want to stay in the bed too.
SLEEPWEAR
I really love the sleepwear from Majamas because they are suitable for both maternity and nursing yet look pretty and feminine. Nothing lifts your spirits like clean, nice pajamas – I don’t know, maybe that’s me.
LINGERIE
Just because your lady is pregnant doesn’t mean she can’t be rocking some awesome lingerie. Personally, I would go the gift card route on this one. Boobs and bodies change a lot before, during and after pregnancy (you may have noticed) so a measurement is a good idea. I would recommend Nordstroms and Cake Maternity as your two best bets to find something to suit her needs.
GRABBER
If everyone has a sense of humor, then I love this grabber as a gift idea for a pregnant lady. Pair it with a basket full of her favourite snacks and treats.
EARTH MAMA ANGEL
These guys make lovely stuff for moms and babies. It’s made of worry-free, plant based ingredients. I like the Pregnancy Essentials Bundle but they have wonderful teas, lotions and lip balms too.
ADEN + ANAIS SWADDLERS
I know this isn’t exactly a sexy gift, but aden + anais swaddlers are the shit and moms LOVE them. Plus, they just came out with this “Heartbreaker” pattern so it’s a nice tie in.
THIS SHIRT
I found this one on Etsy. Maybe paired with a great dinner or movie night.
THE GIFT OF TIME AND TROUBLE
You don’t need to spend a fortune on Valentine’s Day when you can offer your time and love. Here are some handy coupons you can download to give to your special lady. Even better, tape them to a giant box of chocolates.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
