Thighs are the bane of many a woman’s existence and that doesn’t stop during pregnancy. Most of us gain weight in unfortunate places when we’re gestating and the thighs are one of those places. And when its summertime, it’s hot, you’re pregnant and your thighs rub together (lets be honest…unless you’re a super model, your thighs probably rub together even when you aren’t pregnant) causing painful chafing, life can suck.

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and if you’re about to become one we think you should be fêted too! So we looked back and picked out some of our enduring faves for pregnant mamas, all of which would make great gifts this Sunday. They’re all Canadian-made and they may be oldies but they definitely are goodies – classics as it were. And classics never go out of style. Be sure to pick your fave and send this along with a strong hint to those who should be fêting you this mother’s day!

Any new mama who’s sung Hush Little Baby over and over and over again knows that music soothes a savage – or colicky, or upset, or overwhelmed – babe. But there’s only so much singing you can do, especially at 3 am. Which is just one of the reasons we think an Owl Musicbaby from mimishop on Etsy makes a lovely new baby gift.

Babies come with a lot of stuff. Soothers, bottles, bibs, diapers, wipes and lots of blankets. Receiving, burping, swaddling, snuggling, sleeping…the list goes on when it comes to blankets. There is a blanket for every possible occasion.
