Reply to: Birthday treat for the heavily pregnant missus

[TheFaQQer]

Often a more comfortable experience for the pregnant lady than the usual haunt in my experience

It's expensive for what you get, though.

Buy her a memory foam mattress and a memory foam lumbar support. she deserves it and will really appreciate it.

Take her up the oxo tower.

Couple of suggestions there which might prove fruitful, thought probably 7 months to late for the oxo tower.

Thanks folks.

Buy her a giant plunger. Worked on me. I've still got the bulging forehead to prove it.

Surely a day out at Alton Towers will solve all problems at once.

[Sockpuppet]

Probably the wrong forum to ask, but any suggestions?

My better half is 7 months pregnant, and ever so slightly emotional (the novelty factor has worn off with #2). So I'm looking for pressie suggestions, thinking maybe spa/facial type thing but done that before so something different would be more than welcome.

Get her a red letter day to drive a ferrari at silverstone. When she can't use it you can.

In answer to the original question - how about bourneville?

[Ruprect]

Good idea. Especially if you can find a nice slim blonde swedish one that prefers to do the cleaning without all that restrictive clothing.

The missus will soon realise it's better to get off her lazy arse and do the housework herself than continually worry you'll be giving the maid an extra tip on the side.

I used the same tactic with a young fit cleaner who was a friend of a friend. She lasted all of two weeks before the (then) missus clocked her and decided we didn't really need one.

Facial is always a good idea, if she's amenable to it

All my missus wanted was sleep, so go and buy her some (very expensive - not the cheap Tesco's tat) Egyptian cotton linen. Oh and make the bed yourself. 5 min job but it will buy you many late passes out after the birth. Sorted.

If she's planning a home birth, I'd leave the bed making for a while.
