Present ideas for 7mth pregnant sister in law

Hello, I hope this is the right place to post this. I need ideas for birthday presents for my sister in law who is 7mths pregnant with her 3rd kid.

In a previous year I got her a pregnancy massage so don't want to do that again. Another year I got her a voucher to a craft shop because she is into crafts. Again, I don't want to do a repeat.

It's not that her gift has to be pregnancy related but I thought it might be thoughtful if it is something of particular use to pregnant women. Or is that a bad idea and I should ignore the pregnant aspect?

It seems too late in the pregnancy to get her any maternity clothes as she'd only get a couple of months use out of them.

I would consider paying for a babysitter so she could have an evening out (I live too far away to do it) but they don't use any paid babysitters at all.

She is also interested in Montessori.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Spritz for bits?

If this isn't her first pregnancy I'd steer clear of pregnancy-related gifts and go for 'time off from your toddler' gifts.

A meal voucher, cinema voucher, some nice 'treat' things that she may not want to buy for herself, like nice make up, pretty jewellery, Clarins Hand and Nail cream or a nice manicure.

Hi what about getting her an eating out gift vouchers can’t remember what there called now. It’s like a fine out gift card so she can go when she wants & perhaps you or anyone could baby sit x

What about a hamper of her favourite treats/foods and luxuries? I'd love that Grin
