Holiday Gifts for Moms-to-be

Christmas shopping is in full swing. If you have a mom-to-be in your life, be sure to keep them (and not just the baby) in mind on Christmas morning. Here is a guide (for all budgets) on what’s hot this holiday season for future mamas.

The Bump Nest Pregnancy Pillow. $89

Getting a good night’s sleep when pregnant can be a bit of a challenge. The Bump Nest pillow is specially designed to support your back and your growing bump. It’s machine washable, uses invisible zippers and has adjustable stuffing to mold into the shape you’d like. It’s made of soft and stretchy knit fabrics and is available in 9 beautiful patterns and colours.

Belly Buds. $49.99 – $71.99

This nifty gift idea is especially popular after featuring on both Modern Family and Keeping up with the Kardashians.

Comfy Uggs Slippers. $85 – $140.

Nothing beats a pair of toastie slippers on a chilly winter night. Check out UGG Australia’s Ansley Slipper or their Cozy Knit models. With fun colours and non-slip sole, this slice of bliss is not just cozy but practical too. Shop here: http://www.uggaustralia.com/womens-slippers/

Belly Support Tank. $68.

The Maternity Underbust High-Performance Belly Support Tank has built-in belly and back support and is made of breathable high-performance fabric that keeps moisture at bay. The tank is the answer to bulky support belts and flimsy belly bands. While the tank comes in at $68.00, it works overtime. It alleviates pressure, smoothes hips, back and sides for a secure fit, and lifts the belly to improve posture. It also won’t fade and dull with wash and wear.

The special under-bust design means you can wear your best fitting bra during every trimeser. It holds up unbuttoned bottoms so you can wear your pre-pregnancy clothes and allow you to secure loose maternity bottoms that you haven’t grown into yet. Find it at: http://www.blanqi.com

Porn for New Moms. $10.

The tongue and cheek Cambridge Women’s Pornography Cooperative have put together this funny collection of hunky guys doing exactly what new mothers want. The women have captured a world where men insist on changing diapers, get up for 3am feeds and where they just can’t help but admire mom’s sexy all-sweatpants wardrobe. Check out a couple of the pics below and Find it here on Amazon. 

Storksak Changing Bag. $70 – 450.

Moms around the world are RAVING about storksak – awarded the best baby-changing bag last year.

They are stylish, practical and versatile. Even Angelina Jolie was spotted with their Gigi Diaper Bag. But don’t take my word for it:
