#1 I love that name!
If she says Jane, you do not say plain. You say, “I love it,” and send her Nametrix. The app compiles and analyzes data from Wikipedia and the U.S. government into an easy-to-use interface that told us Janes are most likely to be Democrats and counselors who live in the Northeast.
Available at itunes.com, free.
#2 Can I borrow that jumper?
If there was ever a brand that took the anxiety out of buying maternity clothes, Hatch is it. The year-and-a-half-old fashion line continues to wow fans (both pregnant and not) thanks to seasonal on-trend collections. And, yes, you may borrow her jumper — if she lets you.
Available at hatchcollection.com, $248.
#3 Order her this magazine subscription
Order her other half a subscription to Kindling, the new quarterly that explores fatherhood and dads who parent, not dads who fumble a diaper change. Let’s hear it for equal partners in raising humans!
Available at kindlingquarterly.com, four issues for $46.
#4 No heels? No problem.
And why would anyone when Yosi Samra ballet flats are as comfortable as house slippers but much prettier — and socially acceptable?
Available at bellydancematernity.com, $66-$80.
#5 You’re glowing!
It’s not that the pregnancy glow is a myth; it’s just that sometimes she needs help clearing things (i.e., acne) up. This exfoliating face wash does the trick without salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or benzoyl peroxide — ingredients she should avoid while pregnant.
Available at belliskincare.com, $22.
