Gift for pregnant MOH

Hi, all. I was just wondering what those of you who have had a pregnant BM/MOH have given them as gifts? Or if you WERE the pregnant BM/MOH, what did you received that you loved or would have loved? I've looked around and can't really find any ideas. I'm looking for something that will be cute but practical. She has a very strong personality (military girl). And I can't go off of what I'm getting the others because she's the only one. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Shop for her as if it were her birthday.  The fact that she's pregnant really doesn't have much to do with what you get her.

    </div><div>This exactly. Get her something that she would love, not something she can use because she's pregnant. Get her that at her baby shower..

    I agree. Get her something that's just for her and not for the baby. I might even go the DIY route (and I am a dedicated buyer of goods*, so for me to go crafty is unique) and put together a scrapbook of memories to thank her for being there over the years. It seems like you both are at major points in your lives and it's nice to have someone to celebrate all these big and wonderful changes with! I think that would be really sweet and sentimental.

    *to be honest, even if I did the scrapbook, I'd probably buy something as well. but that's just me.

    A gift certificate for a manicure/pedicure. Some women chose not to get this done during later pregnancy, but she could do it once she's had the baby. Might be nice for her to relax for a few minutes.

    Good advice. Thanks! I'll shift gears from baby stuff to BFF stuff.
