One of the things to do when you are pregnant is shopping! It’s a very enjoyable experience to shop for your newborn. You will start to search for every baby store in the vicinity and once you enter into a shop, you will never come out empty handed. You will also start going to Baby Fairs and will stop shopping for yourself but for your little baby.

Prenatal massages are very important and you’re advised to go at least once. A prenatal massage will soothe sore muscles, relax your mind, improves your blood circulation and oxygenation of soft tissues and muscles.

Go on a babymoon

Before the baby arrives, you should go on a holiday with your spouse and your older kids just to spend some time with them. Once the baby is born, you will not be able to spend any time with your family as the baby needs you 24/7. Besides that, take the time to go on a relaxing beach holiday, or just spend some time with your spouse.

Book a maternity photoshoot

A maternity photoshoot is a great way to capture your pregnancy glow and it makes a great memorabilia of your beautiful moment. Most women would opt to show their protruding bellies loud and proud and the recommend time to do a photoshoot would be the last trimester as the belly is the biggest. Most couples would also use this opportunity to announce the gender of the baby with gender specific props.

Relax and pick a name for your baby

Pregnancy should be a very relaxing moment before the baby arrives. Use the time to rest, enjoy the moment, take it easy an maybe read “What To Expect When You’re Expecting” or a book on baby names. Especially during the third trimester, you’re supposed to take things slow, relax and do very light exercises.

Pack your hospital bag
