Babymoon Gifts: Surprising Your Expectant Wife
If your wife is expecting her first child (or second
, or third, or umpteenth), this might be a nice time to get away from the everyday struggles of work and daily life and mentally prepare yourself for the ways in which your life is about to change. Bringing a child into a relationship can be a wonderful experience, but it can also put a lot of added stress on both partners. If you have a point you can look back to and remember your deep love for one another, it may be enough to help you through the times when it doesn't seem worth it. The solution: a babymoon. These pre-birth getaways can help you get centered and reaffirm your love for one another. If you want to make the experience doubly sweet for your wife, here are some gifts you might consider giving her.
A Day at the Spa
The bulk of the babymoon should be about focusing on each other, your love, and your plans for when the child arrives. However, that doesn't mean you have to spend every waking second together. In fact, that could easily wind up doing more harm than good. If you want to give your wife a real chance to get away from everything (including you), you might consider giving her a day at the spa. Find a good one in your vacation locale and set up an experience for her where she can relax, get pampered, and feel as though the world revolves around her. Once the child arrives, she won't get many chances to feel that way.
Photographs
If this is your first child, this is a period of time you'll never be able to duplicate. There may be additional children in your future, but there will only be one "first pregnancy". One great babymoon gift can be setting up a professional photography session of you and your wife. You'll be able to capture the excited, anticipatory glow that can only be found on the faces of a couple expecting their first child. Sure, your digital camera has already been busy taking such pictures, but this is a way to take it to the next level. Plus, your child will love to see the pictures when he or she is older.
Traditional Gifts
You don't necessarily need to get creative with the presents. In fact, your wife may be the type who would rather get a nice piece of jewelry than something sentimental or centered around the child. The babymoon should mostly be focused on the impending birth, but that doesn't mean that every single thing you do has to be. If you think your wife would jump for joy at the thought of getting a nice necklace or a dress, don't hesitate to use those as your gifts.
