I got a large gift certificate last Christmas to a local spa and I want to use it before my LO arrives! I'm not sure when I should go though. I'm thinking of going after Christmas when I'm around 36-37 weeks pregnant. Is that too late? My doctor said that after 36 weeks is better, as far as getting massages and risk of going into early labor.

The bigger problem is that I have no idea what to get! I've only ever been to a spa one other time (a massage on my honeymoon) and I'm nervous! Plus, it's a pretty large gift certificate, so there's many options on what I could get.

I was thinking a pedicure (to make my feet pretty before birth, haha) and a massage. But is a prenatal massage worth it? With my certificate, I could do a 45 min pedi and a 90 min massage, or Lux pedi (warm oil, exfoliation, extra hydration) and a 75 min massage. Or a mani/pedi with 75 minute massage.

I just can't choose! Is there anything you wish you had gotten while you're pregnant?

Edit: I should've added that my due date is January 26!
