What to ask for, for a birthday present for me?

We already have most baby items and parents and in-laws said they want to get a present for me rather than for baby. My due date is around 6 weeks after my birthday so I was thinking of asking for something that might bring me happiness in the last few weeks of pregnancy/that would help during maternity leave. Is there any nice little treats you had or wished you had that I could ask for as a gift?

my initial thoughts were a really nice bottle of wine or gin or some nice bath soaks

thanks in advance

I would ask for vouchers for clothes shopping after having baby! I always find my body feels so alien afterwards and I have to rediscover my style a bit

If it's in budget, a massage!

I was also going to suggest a pregnancy massage (if budget allows), it's what I had from DH a Mon before DS was born!

That’s a nice idea or a haircut voucher! New clothes made me feel a lot better after a baby.
