Congrats!! :-)</p> <p>Not much really. I don't have anything really pregnancy related, my number 1 on my list is a waffle maker! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1985017 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 12:14:16 +0000 mrsjyw 1985017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A new bath robe, slippers, massage/spa gift certificates, a puffy winter coat, vinylux nail polish, and some new maternity tops or gift cards for shopping :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984622 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 09:04:33 +0000 Circusbee 1984622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom has been asking what I want too, and I really just want stuff for my baby/use with baby. The diaper bag is currently at the top of my list. </p> <p>I'd also really like a chest freezer for the basement because our fridge is pretty small and I'd like to be able to make and freeze some meals before baby is here.</p> <p>I did ask for a fuzzy robe, but the reason for it is that I only have a thin jersey knit one, and my birth center recommends to bring one for the birth. I figured it would be something I use a lot after baby's here since it'll be easy to whip out the boobs and will still be warm and cozy (baby due in Feb!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984582 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 08:05:08 +0000 My Only Sunshine 1984582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: For practical but still enjoyable gifts, I like memberships. When I was pregnant I asked for an Amazon prime membership and a Spotify Premium membership. My dad also got me and my sisters AAA memberships one year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984568 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 07:35:19 +0000 Happygal 1984568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My list was pretty short and was not super baby focused. I did ask for PJs that should make nursing easy, a soft nursing top from GAP, and some lounge pants that are cute but comfy so I don't feel like a total slob. Some flowy tops and a gift certificate for a house cleaning service! Oh, used DVDs of a few TV series for nursing sessions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984510 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 02:45:54 +0000 Kemma 1984510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chocolates.

I suspect my in-laws might be gifting us with $ dedicated to getting our nursery professionally painted, which would be awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984135 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 16:12:45 +0000 Iced Tea 1984135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My wishlist:<br /> pay my doula fee (it's far fetched, but I can hope)<br /> tickets to a jazz show or musical<br /> boots<br /> books<br /> felted wool hat<br /> new set of glassware from west elm </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984074 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 15:03:02 +0000 Astro Bee 1984074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked my parents for new winter boots, and mentioned to my in-laws that I'd just finished my baby registry. My MIL thought that was a great idea, so word will probably get passed around. We're not having a shower, so other than family and friends randomly buying stuff off there before baby comes, Christmas and my birthday are the only two occasions to complete some of the items. It doesn't bother me at all to receive baby registry gifts, since we'll have to go buy stuff anyway. I normally get house decor or clothes for presents anyway, and I already have enough maternity wear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1984000 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 13:35:24 +0000 FaithFertility 1984000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First def my baby, she is due today! :)<br /> Then I asked for gift cars to get nails, hair and such done....I figured it would be nice PP :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983977 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 13:07:26 +0000 renee 1983977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked my parents for gift cards to restaurants since we're trying to save money by not eating out as much. I ask my in-laws for a cookbook that was just released by one of my favorite local restaurants. But this is basically what I always want for Christmas. I was tempted to ask for baby things, but my mom said no, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983973 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 13:04:56 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 1983973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just want to see a heartbeat in my Christmas eve ultrasound! :silly: but I asked family for some nice kitchen skillets and perfume. They don't know about baby yet, hopefully we get to announce Christmas day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983910 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 12:07:06 +0000 Chocoholic 1983910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This was my list- </p> <p>VS Pink PJ pants &amp; tees (the necks pull down great for BF)<br /> Hunter rain boots with socks<br /> Gift card to salon for hair cut<br /> Gift card to YMCA to enroll DS in swim lessons<br /> LL Bean slippers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983898 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 11:55:33 +0000 MsHangry 1983898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a robe, so I asked for a light one mostly for "post baby shuffling around the house without being obscene" for my May due date. </p> <p>I also asked for compression socks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983886 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 11:35:55 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1983886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some cozy socks and pjs. DD2 will be here four days after Christmas......what I really want is a couple more weeks with only DD1, I'm feeling really sentimental about her right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983885 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 11:34:16 +0000 youboots 1983885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm asking anyone who asks to buy off our baby registry. The shower is in January so the timing is good.

I asked for an etsy gift card so I can buy things for the nursery and nursing nightgowns/robes for feeding once the twins get here (I loved them last time). So they're for me and them. Otherwise I also asked for photo editing software and some small things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983827 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 10:03:23 +0000 Rockies11 1983827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked for Ikea giftcards to buy furniture for my daughter's playroom and big girl room.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983817 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 09:54:57 +0000 cheert16 1983817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want my baby to come before Christmas!

(The Skip Hop Chelsea.) So it's technically something I need for baby, but it's also a nice little luxury for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983792 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 09:16:31 +0000 ustechie 1983792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A new glider. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983789 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 09:12:27 +0000 dc yoga bee 1983789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We asked parents not to buy us anything, and not only did they get the baby a bunch of stuff off my registry, but they got us stuff too! In-laws got me Pandora charms to add to my bracelet, DVDs, and books off my amazon wishlist. I don't know what my parents bought yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983753 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 08:45:43 +0000 Little Misters Mom 1983753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was pregnant last Christmas and asked for a Snoogle! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983750 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 08:44:02 +0000 sapphire 1983750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mostly small stuff - books, CDs. I do want some slippers. New Jammies or other comfy clothes might be good for when the baby comes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983746 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 08:42:04 +0000 Anya 1983746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only want things for the baby, nothing for myself but unfortunately my inlaws won't have any of that either! I had to really scrounge to think of things for myself to ask for, like new slippers. I think the raincoat is a good idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnant-ladies-whats-on-your-christmas-wish-list#post-1983739 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 08:27:11 +0000 Corduroy 1983739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just gave my wish list to my parents: a trowel and/or a push broom. My mom rejected my list saying she's not getting her pregnant daughter tools so she can do more work. I don't have any more ideas. I do want a new raincoat but not maternity and it feels weird to ask for something I won't use for a year. I also don't know what size Ill be after #2. </p> <p>While push broom and trowel are too practical for my parents they would equally balk at something luxurious like a massage gift certificate.</p> <p>What kinds of things are you asking for/hoping to get? </p>
