Gift for my pregnant sister

My sister is 14 weeks pregnant and I want to get her a little something to let her know that I'm happy about her pregnancy because we've had a rocky relationship at times. I don't have too much money to spend because we're on a tight budget with ours on the way, so I'm looking for something small. I was thinking of getting her a t-shirt from preggersnproud.com but my other sister doesn't think she'll wear it.

Do any of you have any suggestions of what I can get her?

I think a little bag full of beauty, take care of herself goodies would be wonderful. I know I would love lotions, and things to pamper myself withChat Icon

My friend got me a little photo album (at the dollar store) that I could put all of my sonogram pics. in. It's made of paper, and obviously inexpensive, but it's really cute, and I carry it with me everywhere.

That's a cute idea. My MIL and SIL both gave me figurines from Willow Tree by Demdaco. They are really sweet, one of a mom holding a baby and one of a preggo holding her belly. I plan on adding more (i.e. one of mom, dad, baby// or dad and baby)

How about a GC for a manicure/pedicure? It gets increasingly difficult as you get further along Chat Icon

Re: Gift for my pregnant sister

Oh, I know how difficult it gets! Lol. I am 34 weeks pregnant and I'm wanting to go get a pedicure SOO badly.

The problem is that she's in Rocky Point and I'm in Levittown, which is about an hour ride. I'd have to go all the way out there to get her the gift certificate. seriously i wanted to get us both pregnancy massages but that's just too expensive!

You can wrap it up and mail it to her. I love getting packages in the mail.

I was going to suggest the mani-pedi as well. Why don't you call her up & make plans that the both of you go to a nail place by her. And tell her it's on you. Or maybe she can go by you.

Or you can ask her husband to pick up the gift cert for you.

How about pregnancy books. My friend just found out shes pregnant and I got her the girlfriends guide to pregnancy and your pregnancy week by week. She also bought herself belly laughs which she likes. Go to Amazona nd they will ship it right to her house

How about a class of pre-natal yoga for the 2 of you to share. I can't imagine a class costing more than $20.00 and its something you can do together.

Re: Gift for my pregnant sister

Thank you everyone for all of your ideas. I was also considering sending her a pregnancy journal. But we are hanging out tomorrow, I am going with her to start her registry and then my husband is taking both of us out for dinner after he gets home from work. I might bring her to my favorite nail place and get a mani/pedi for the two of us tomorrow. Thanks again for all of your suggestions!!!
