Are you getting bored of all the moaning about pelvic girdle pain and lower back pain? Well now that can come to an end! A birthing ball can relieve those pregnancy aches and pains whilst encourage baby into the right position ready for birth.

 

Scented Candle

 Let's be honest, women love a scented candle, so why not get them the perfect scent you know they will love! Are they a clean cotton, vanilla cupcake or maybe a black cherry kinda gal? It's impossible to just pick one!

 

Mini Fridge

This one may seem a little random, but there are so many ways to put a mini fridge to good use. I know they're commonly used for beauty serums, however think outside the box. From storage to keep milk close by, to a cheeky midnight snack, the possibilities are endless. 

 

BABYGO® Baby Grow

You can never have too much baby clothing right? Treat your mama-to-be to a cosy little sleepsuit this Christmas. It may not be for her directly, but trust us, she will definitely thank you later! 

 

Fluffy Slippers

What's the first thing you do when you get out of bed? For me, I slide my slippers on straight away! (I hate having cold toes.) A brand new pair of cosy slippers might be just what she needs. 

 

PJs

 

You know what goes well with new slippers? New pjs! And pregnancy specific ones such as these are perfect for postpartum too!

 

The Doula Deck

 

Filled with soothing affirmations, movement activities and breathing exercises, The Doula Deck will be sure to support your mama to be through pregnancy, birth and their new life as a mother.

 

Personalised Blanket

BABYGO® Pregnancy Support Band

Bumps getting lower and heavier and quite frankly, you hate seeing your mama to be in pain. Take some of the weight for them (without physically having to hold bump up) with a pregnancy support band!

 

Baby Scan Photo Frame

Simple but adorable, a sonogram picture frame is guaranteed to be a gift they may not buy for themselves, but they will definitely cherish forever.

 

 Disposable Camera

Speaking of photos, disposable cameras are a cute, retro, fun idea to help create memories! Mum can get them developed and printed to put in a photo album or even a scrapbook! (but we we'll get to that).

 

Floaty Maternity Dress

   

Pregnancy is tough, and your body is constantly changing. What better way to make mum feel great about herself than treating her to a comfy, yet stylish dress for her to flaunt her bump in.

 

Quirky Wine Glass

Does she love a cheeky glass of wine? A personalised wine glass is a fun, creative gift idea, especially if the 9 months is coming to an end!

 

Baby Document Organiser

Help her stay organised by keeping baby's documents all in one place. This may be something she didn't think of herself but will greatly appreciate! 

 

 BABYGO® Maternity Knickers

 Your pregnant mum to be may be experiencing some pregnancy discharge and leaks. Whether she's willing to tell you this or not, a good pair of maternity underwear can solve this problem immediately. Maternity knickers are not only flattering, but have superior comfort, support and protection.

 

Pregnancy Journal

Some of us love to document our thoughts, feelings and memories and what better time to do so than during the journey from bump to birth. It can be an emotional 9 months, and simply writing down how you feel can work wonders!

 

Personalised Bauble

Whether it's Christmas or not, this is such a cute personal gift with so many varieties of designs. Who wouldn't want their family on their Christmas tree? It doesn't even matter if baby has arrived yet! 

 

Restaurant Gift Card

Restaurant gift cards are a great way to encourage someone try a food place they may not have been to. When baby is here there won't be as much time to go out, so why not help get them out the house and pay towards a nice meal out?

 

Eye Mask

With all the sleepless nights ahead, what better way to help get rid of those bags what with an eye mask. From de puffing to brightening, there are so many different ones to treat her to!

 

 Double Sided Decision Coin

These are great! You can personalise them to have whatever writing you want and we guarantee she won't already have them! Baby crying? Don't want to change a nappy? Here's your time to shine.

 

Yoga Mat

Exercise during pregnancy is so important and yoga is one of the best ways to keep fit in a safe way during those 9 months. Help ease some of those aches and pains with a yoga mat to encourage mum off the sofa and into downward dog.

 

BABYGO® Maternity Leggings

While we're on the topic of exercise, are pair of maternity leggings are great for pregnant ladies on the go. Whether it's yoga, a gym workout or a stroll in the park, these maternity compression leggings with grow with your bump.

 

Scrapbook

Perhaps your pregnant mum to be has a creative streak in her, or maybe she likes to keep herself occupied in fun ways! Scrapbooking not only allows you to keep your memories in one place, but can also be really therapeutic, and help you switch off from the world for a moment.

 

Belly Butter

 Not only does pregnancy belly butter help with stretch marks, it can also act as a moisturiser and often smells delicious! Who wouldn't want that? 

 

Pregnancy Books

A woman can never have too many pregnancy books. And sitting down and taking a minute during maternity leave, is even better with a book in your hand. For soon to be mums with any queries or worries, 'The Positive Birth Book' (above) is perfect for all of those unanswered questions. For something with a touch of humour, 'How to Grow a Baby and Push it Out' has a light hearted feel to it.

 

BABYGO® Nursing sleep Bra

With a super flattering cross cut design, this breastfeeding nursing bra is perfect for those night time pumps and feeds. Made from super soft Tencel™ modal, she can enjoy a proper night's sleep, or simply use as comfy loungewear.

 

 Hand/footprint Set

Let's be real, she was probably thinking of getting one anyway, so why not beat her to it. A cute little DIY kit for baby's hand/footprints are the perfect addition to any nursery, living room or anywhere in the house for that matter!

 

Hospital Bag

Another maternity gift to beat her to is a hospital bag. I guarantee if she hasn't already got one she WILL be getting one. An absolute essential for a pregnant lady no matter what trimester. You can never be too prepared!

 

Hospital Bag Goodies

Ok, maybe you know for a fact that she already has a hospital bag. So why not help her fill it? They're are so many useful bits that she may not think of herself that she can put in it.

 

BABYGO® Peanut Ball for Labour 

Does she already have a birthing ball? Perhaps she might prefer a peanut ball. Whilst a birthing ball prepares you for labour sat down, a peanut birthing ball does the same job lying down. And let's face it, it can be pretty tiring!

 

Cupcakes

 

 Sometimes edible treats are just what you need to get through those tough days during pregnancy. And if she has a sweet tooth, cupcakes are a great gift idea she may not expect to receive. Look into local places and support small businesses around you! I guarantee there will be plenty to choose from! 

 

Mama Necklace

Women can never have too much jewellery. And how fitting this dainty necklace? Whether they're a silver, gold or rose gold kind of gal, I'm sure she will be a proud wearer of a necklace like this!

 

Jewellery

 

 Perhaps this necklace in particular isn't her cup of tea. Well, I'll say it again, women can never have too much jewellery! Why not try a ring or bracelet instead?

 

BABYGO® Postpartum Belt

So she has planned her pregnancy down to a T, and you feel like there's nothing left to get her. Well, what about her postpartum journey? A postpartum band is amazing for getting back on track after giving birth, and comes with a 90 page postpartum book filled with exercises and nutritional advice.

 

Bed Socks

Pregnancy Photoshoot  

We're not saying you need to pay for a full photoshoot, but perhaps towards it. If mama to be is confident enough, or maybe she's dropped a hint, pregnancy photoshoots can be such a lovely gift and experience to treasure before baby arrives.

 

BABYGO® Maternity Bra

Is she planning on breastfeeding? Or maybe she just wants a comfy bra to lounge in? Wire, hook and tag free, this maternity nursing bra is great for pregnancy & postpartum, and feels like a second skin!

 

Bath Time Essentials

Make bath time that little bit easier with some must have items. From bath mats to body wash, toys to talc, a mum or baby can never have too many bath time essentials. And I'm positive they both will appreciate it!

 

Baby Changing Organiser

I'll be honest, changing can get, let's just say 'messy' at times. Help her get prepared with a baby changing organiser, and avoid those sloppy slip ups. Whether you want to fill it with goodies or not, she is bound to love it!
