This first annual holiday edition is perfect to forward to your mom to avoid yet another sweater that you wouldn’t dare wear now that you’re safely out of junior high or to print out for your husband who swore that when you said you needed a new vacuum that surely meant you wanted one for your anniversary.

One size fits most is a really safe bet (are you listening husbands?) because if you buy your wife, who wears a size medium, a size large you will be sleeping on the couch.  Important to note I said one size fits “most” not “all” as the first two gift ideas work great for 2-10 pre-pregnancy sizes. 

The Due In tanks and tees are awesome for two completely irrelevant reasons.  One, they offer pervy men a total excuse to stare at, I mean read, the fine print across Pregnant Girl’s new knockers .  Two, they save those “foot in mouth” types from asking the 6 month Pregnant Girl if she is due next week thus provoking hysteria.  $36 – $52

Michael Stars maternity tops –  AKA magic shirts that cover every bump from beginning to end and turn out perfect even after 200 washes.  Somehow a man (I am so pissed it was him and not me) figured out a way to make one size fashionable tees and then expand them to the maternity market.  $50-$68

For more of a splurge gift choose a fabulous Storksak diaper bag, if she is a handbag kind of girl she will love a diaper bag that looks (almost) as stylish as the Prada bag she will surely need when she is done with the diaper stage of life.  This is total function meets fashion.  $176 – $245

Husbands, gifts that are as much for you as for her include BelaBumBum nursing bras, panties and pjs.  Your wife will feel feminine and you get to enjoy the view, wink.  $24 – $80

If you’re looking for a gift for both mom and dad to enjoy (and you don’t want to conjure up the images from aforementioned lingerie) a more appropriate choice is the Beco baby carrier.  The Beco promotes bonding, is adjustable for kids from 7-45 lbs. and adjusts to fit a petite mama and tall daddy (or vice versa) in a matter of seconds.  They come in many fun prints or organic solids. $139 – $189

Happy Holidays!
