Bathrobe for birthday?

steph broo

i got a bathrobe for my birthday from my live in boyfriend and honestly I'm a little upset. I think mainly its because I am 4 1/2 months pregnant and I just kinda feel like maybe he should have gone a step above a bathrobe. Am i wrong? I'm so confused as to how I'm supposed to react. However there is a 20 year age gap and I dont know if that has something to do with it. I just need some insight on this because I don't know if this is him being like "heres a robe but I'm still not sure enough about our relationship to buy you any jewelry" or if its a genuine gift that he thought I would like and I don't want to hurt his feelings and be ungrateful.
btw I already own a really nice bathrobe which is another reason why I'm so confused. It's like why do I need two bathrobes?

Answer
Well, he's a man, so that should be explanation enough.....

Seriously men are not the best at gift buying unless you guide them in the right direction. I'm sure he thought it was a good idea.
Be grateful.
Possible you'll get a really nice push present. I suggest getting a friend or relative to approach him and help him out in that department.....

Green plant would be nice to give a person who is pregnant and having a birthday, it is green and still a nice gift to get either way Good Luck !

looking for good gift.?

brazelt

ok my sister in law, my brothers wife, just found out she's pregnant and her birthdays coming up, its march 2, and I need to find her I great gift. shes turning 23. I thought about getting her some maternity clothes but couldnt find a good store. she wears plus size clothing so its a little harder. If anybody knows a good plus size maternity store, or another good gift idea then pls help. no baby clothes....!

Answer
My friend recently found out she is pregnant. It wasn't her birthday but I bought her a Pregnancy Journal they sell them at The Hallmark Store and other book stores. They are really cute, you can put pictures of your belly, dreams for the baby and other things. You fill in the questions its not a blank journal. She loved it. Just an idea though.

My friend is turning 21 but she is pregnant (baby coming VERY soon) and I don't know what to get her. I want something for just her. Baby gifts are for baby shower.

Answer
Nice champagne so she can pop the cork when she pops the kid

what are some gift ideas for a pregnant girlfriend who is 21yrs old?

My friend is having a baby in february and wants to get her something special. Any Ideas?

Answer
Please, please, don't get her anything baby related for her birthday. When it's time for the baby shower, get her something for the baby...meanwhile, it's her birthday, so celebrate her!

I might suggest a massage...Many day spa's offer pregnancy massages, which (a) allow her to relax in a way that doesn't interfere with her belly, and (b) will help to relax the muscles that get really sore when a woman is pregnant.

Alternately, there's always the things that the rest of us want, even when we're not pregnant...Diamonds or pearls are always nice! :)

What is the best way to set up a baby shower?

Eulogy

Ive never been to one and never have had to host one before.When/where do I include where the parents are register? Also, I have no idea really where to begin or what to do......

Answer
Around 30 weeks pregnant i had mine at my home It was mainly women who i invited i sent them all invertations and did a wish list on the argos website and if they wanted to get me a gift they had a choice to get something spontanious or pay for one on their as alot of us have been friends for a long time we have done the same for each other, i put on a buffet and my hubby and dad sorted out drinks and entertained children while we did the girlie stuff, showing off presants, scan pictures, bump,going over baby names showing off my sons new room etc. it was kind of like a birthday party but the presants wernt for me, my mum made a small and very much embarrasing speech about me as a baby and was kind enough to do a slide show of me and my hubby's baby pics. She even took bets on who the baby will look most like. Hope this gets your mind boggling with lots of ideas. let your closest mates know your not feeling to confident, I did im sure like mine they will be amazing and help loads.

How soon did you create your baby registry?

Hannah S

I am only 7 weeks pregnant and can't stop thinking about the baby shower! I know it is obviously too soon to create one - I want to at least know the sex of the baby.

So I'm just wondering, at around which week did you create your baby registry?

Answer
At the risk of ofending everyone here, I didn't and have no intention of doing it - I think it is a horrible gift grab. In fact, I had to finally snap on the obnoxious Sears registry lady who seemed totally offended I was not going to register, especially there! I told her my husband and I can afford everything we need and would prefer if people would just buy some diapers and formula and take that to the food bank - that shut her up! My husband and I are older and financially stable and I hate the idea of registering, giving people the impression they need to buy us something. I have purposely bought everything we need in an attempt to avoid the whole shower thing - so far it's worked! Obviously that is not the case for everyone, especially young couples just starting out. I have always bought baby gifts for friends and coworkers because I wanted to, not becuase of what was dictated to me by a registry. The registry thing is totally getting out of hand - birthdays, christenings, having their first poop, it's ridiculous. That's is just my opinion though. Congrats on your pregnancy!

Is it bad to be like 13 and still a virgin?

Q. is it? Alot of ppl at my school have all ready had it and one at my school is pregnet and she is 13.

A. Sweetie,

You say "virgin" like it's a bad thing. You are only given your virginity ONCE-- once, in your whole life. Imagine how special something would have to be to only have it ONCE. You get a cake and a birthday every year, you get new clothes for school every fall, you even occasionally get baby siblings or cousins.

Your virginity is something you ought to treasure. The longer you hold onto it, the better off you are. Your friend at school who is pregnant has given away something she can never get back, and that is something that will change the course of her life forever, if she can carry the baby to term (not to scare you, but a lot of times when a girl gets pregnant that young, the baby is premature or stillborn)

So, to answer your question: you hold onto your innocence as long as you can. If you can take it all the way through middle school, you should be proud. If you can take it all the way through high school, which is even harder, you should be even prouder. And if you can manage to get through college and still have your virginity, then you will have given whoever you marry THE GREATEST gift that anyone can give him: the idea that he is SO special, you saved it JUST FOR HIM.

I know how cute boys can be, and how crazy about them we girls can get ~ but trust me, if you let one of them talk you into giving away your virginity, when the guy who's so wonderful that you never even realized that men could be made so perfectly comes along, you are going to want to be able to say to him, "I've waited for you" and be able to prove it.

Original Question

What can I get a 24 year old for their birthday who is 6 months pregnant ...ideas?

Q. Been holding off for the perfect gift but just can't think of anything. Other than a "snoozle" which is a snake like body pillow to sleep with for support during pregnancy. Anyone have any ideas? I always get her lotions or candles...etc. But, I want to get her something "for her" that she might enjoy during pregnancy...and maybe after. HELP! (she is a good friend but not supper close...)

A. Either one of them:
One Pedicure Session
One facial or Body Massage
Pregnancy and Parenting books
Pregnancy photo session
Pregnancy Pillow
Body care Kit including stretch marks cream.
Maternity outfits.

Original Question

Trying to get pregnant, need to raise money, any ideas?

Q. My husband and I would like to have a child together, but he had gotten a vasectomy with his previous marriage, so we need to raise the money to have a reversal done. In my search its about 5,000, I need some ideas on what we can do to raise money..... We are saving up, but it would be nice if we could get to our goal faster.

A. Good luck with your fund raising!

Here are my suggestions:
1) Loans - banks and credit card companies (my friend used Capital One but I am not sure if they still have it as this was a few years ago) offer fertility loans with fair interest rates and payment plans. Maybe see if you can borrow from a family member if your credit history is going to prevent you from getting a loan. DO NOT RESPOND TO ANY PEOPLE WHO EMAIL YOU SAYING THEY CAN GET YOU A LOAN - it is a scam and an invitation for identity theft. You need to go with someone you know in real life or a reputable insured bank.

2) Serious budgeting - I also know couples who have taken part time / seasonal jobs to save up for treatments, sold things on ebay etc . . .

3) See if your employer as a flex spending account - you can set aside money tax free for medical things - everything from IVF to prescriptions to eye glasses and medical procedures such as a etc . . .every little bit helps!

4) If you are comfortable, open a pay pal account and ask close family / friends to contribute instead of purchasing holiday gifts / birthday gifts.

5) See if your doctor has a payment plan

Best wishes to you and your husband - I am a firm believer that where there is a will there is a way . . . you can find a way to do this!
