Present for a pregnant lady!

[Steffiy]

My sister in law is 5 months pregnant and I want to buy her a nice prezzie for her birthday. It has to go in the post so will have to be quite small.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Doh - this was meant to be in parenting and I have no idea how to change it.

Thanks

hmm, a bit lost here, are u wanting to get a new mother type pressy or just a nice pressy in general because i cant see what being pregnant has got to do with her having a birthday and u need a present for her?

Anyway, for what she has got to come, maybe some girly things that make her feel pampered and beautiful as a lot of women dont feel like it when they are pregnant (hormones and change of shape) and no matter how much us men know that it doesnt change the way we like them, they still think they arent nice, so something to make her feel special and beautiful for when she is feeling down and icky might be nice!

oooh, has to be small, maybe a body shop makeover would be good then? u can buy them i am sure, or boots vouchers or something- still going on my beauty lines there lol

How about a voucher for some pampering at a local beauty salon?  How well do you know the area where she lives - do you know of any salons?  If not, do a search on somewhere like www.yell.com

If you don't like the idea of an actual voucher, once you have identified a salon, perhaps you could phone them and arrange to pre-pay for a treatment and then send your sister in law a gift certificate instead.

Other than that,  you could shop online - you could order something and have it delivered to her address which would alleviate the necessity for it to be something small.

Lush have an online shop, great stuff for pampering achy bods.

I'm a new mum and i would have loved pamering stuff new bubble baths shower gels body creams anything like that, you body doesnt feel like its ur for a while after having a baby so its nice to get a bit pampered

Hi when I was pregnant I used Clarins Leg Emulsion (I think its called - its a blue cream) you rub over your feet and legs and it feels fab. Also in a small bottle. good luck x
