Nice ideas to treat OH

So I'm 6 months pregnant and my OH has got a broken foot and is on crutches.

It's been a tough few weeks trying to muddle on with work, chores and deal with a lack of sleep but the end is in sight and the cast is hopefully coming off on Wednesday (although it could be another 2 weeks).

My OH is being amazingly supportive and arranged a massage and pedicure for me yesterday as he was concerned about how tired and stressed I was getting as haven't been able to lay down for the last week due to being too uncomfortable.

I want to repay the favour and do something nice for him but have no ideas what as he can't do either of hobbies (golf or fishing) at the moment.

Any one have any ideas what I can do to surprise him? X

Ahh, you both sound lovely :)

Could you perhaps get him a gift card for whichever store or site he normally buys his hobby equipment from, so he can use it when he's fit again?

Or if you want something more immediate, how about just ordering in his favourite takeaway (or making it if you're up to it and not too tired!) Cue up a selection of films or TV that you'll both enjoy, prop his foot up on the coffee table and just have a totally relaxing, guilt-free slob out :)

Is he into whiskey beer or wine? Maybe there is a drinks tasting event that he can go to with his brother or a good friend. My dh is planning a whiskey tasting evening with his brother.

He can't walk so that takes the pressure off as he will probably sat down most of it and either you pick them up or taxi home.

Plus there is no way he will be doing this after the birth Grin
