Choosing the Perfect Pregnancy Gift

By Joanne Garrett

Pregnant women are always in need of a little pampering and thoughtful maternity gifts are the perfect way of showing you care about them. Receiving pregnancy gifts can make a mom-to-be feel special and appreciated, at a time when she may not be feeling her best. There is a whole range of maternity gifts for sale nowadays, particularly via the internet.

Here are my favorite suggestions for maternity and new mom gifts.

Comfortable clothing: Maternity clothing and nursing clothing are also thoughtful and much welcomed gifts. Breast feeding tops, maternity lounge wear; perhaps even an evening dress can be offered as gifts. Or perhaps some maternity accessories for comfort, such as a pair of luxury slippers, or style like a bright pashmina.

Jewellery - A cool pregnancy gift would be a long necklace with a chunky pendant. The long shape lengthens the woman's look, and a large pendant balances their bump. Check that the necklace is adjustable so the pendant falls just above the bump. Stylish new mom gifts include reminder bracelets. For breast feeding Mommies this bracelet is a stylish way to mark which side they need to begin the next feed on.

Toiletries and skincare products - Maternity treats such as scented oils, bath oils, candles and moisturising body creams also make lovely luxury presents. Look out for luxury gift packs of creams and massage oils that help prevent and remove the marks that are sometime inevitable after child birth. Pregnant women also love to feel relaxed.

Still undecided? If you are still undecided about the kind of maternity gift that will be appreciated, you can offer a gift certificate that can be redeemed for something useful and essential. This is another way to ensure that a gift is not duplicated and the recipient is able to choose a gift that matches her tastes exactly.

Maternity gifts are a nice way to show that you are thinking of someone during their pregnancy. They are also a lovely way to mark the new baby's arrival with a gift for the new mum rather than the new baby!
