Mother's Day for a pregnant woman
If Mother's Day is primarily aimed at women who have already given birth to one or more children, it is also an opportunity to spoil a future mother. Even if your baby is not yet born, you may already feel like a mother, especially if your due date is getting closer. Likewise, if you are not concerned this year, you may have in your entourage a sister, a friend, a colleague, a cousin who is expecting a happy event and who will be delighted to discover that you have prepared a little watch out for this occasion – while waiting for her first poems and noodle necklaces :-)
Nothing prevents a pregnant woman from celebrating Mother's Day, if she wants, with the help of her partner, her friends or her family. A good meal, a cake and little touches will mark this symbolic day.
What Mother’s Day gift for a mother-to-be?
It's not easy to find a gift idea for a future mother in your life, especially since you may already have something planned for the maternity or baby shower. Of course, if there is still a gift idea on her birth list, you can offer her what she is missing, but don't hesitate to spoil her, rather than the baby who will probably already be covered in presents at the maternity ward.
To think outside the box and offer something other than flowers, a diaper bag or a book, here are some gift ideas that are sure to please:
- a jewel - but not just any jewel! A pregnancy bola , which emits a delicate ringing sound (heard by the baby from the 4th month of pregnancy ) with each movement, is ideal for future mothers. Why not also opt for a bracelet or pendant engraved with the child's name - or blank if the baby's first name is secret or still under discussion, the future mother can then have it engraved when leaving the maternity ward.
- comfortable clothes, to highlight your new forms as a pregnant woman. If you opt for maternity clothing, remember to check that it is also compatible with breastfeeding: she will benefit from it for longer (if she chooses to breastfeed her baby afterwards). In the clothing department, there are also pretty outfits designed for the family, for example a t-shirt for the young mother to match her little one's bodysuit for a “mom-baby” look that will make an impact!
- for a pregnancy that has just started, a pregnancy diary, in which the mother-to-be will record all her anecdotes, memories and ultrasounds. Step cards are also very popular to immortalize the transformation of your body month by month!
- a photo session, with or without the future dad, is also a very good way to mark a first Mother's Day. Beautiful memories in perspective, which she will keep all her life.
The perfect pregnancy gift: Daylily treatments!
At Daylily, we also have everything you need to spoil a future mother and give her a moment of relaxation. Follow the guide to stock up on great ideas!
Fatigue - thanks to the hormones - often goes hand in hand with pregnancy. Pregnant women, busy preparing for the birth, have a lot to do and don't always have time to take care of themselves. So for a first pregnant Mother's Day, treat yourself to some pampering treatments and a moment of relaxation.
To pamper the body of pregnant women, nourish and soften an epidermis subjected to intense stretching, we have created two anti-stretch mark treatments that are very pleasant to use: Lait Fondant and its creamy texture, and Huile Sensorielle, which, thanks to its dry texture allows for a long massage. A word of advice: get the future dad involved for total relaxation! And to pamper the skin of future mothers' stomachs, we suggest you apply a soothing fabric mask to your stomach! La Pause Douceur is a treatment that will delicately wrap your baby bump to moisturize, relieve, nourish the skin and avoid feelings of tightness, giving you well-deserved moments of relaxation.
Our Crème Radieuse, very moisturizing, has SPF50+, to protect your epidermis all day long from the sun's UV rays, which can trigger the pregnancy mask.
With Déo Caresse, you will stay fresh and dry until childbirth (and even after), without fearing for your health. In fact, no aluminum salts, sulfates, alcohol, alum stone or essential oils in this treatment. Like all Daylily products, it benefits from a natural formula (Arrow root, Mallow flower and vegetable oils), approved by an expert toxicologist to guarantee its perfect safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Daylily face and body treatments are available alone or in a special pregnant women's box to offer a truly targeted gift! We have also combined our products with lovely brands linked to childhood in our young mothers' boxes: a perfect idea to spoil both the young mother and her baby. Far from being reserved for Mother's Day, Daylily boxes are also a good way to please pregnant women around you for Christmas, a birthday, or during your visit to the maternity ward.
All that remains is for us to wish you a very happy first Mother's Day, while waiting to celebrate it with the love of your life in your arms next year!
