| | Any items that mothers have found useful during pregnancy,and also with newborns. I know that I loved having a body pillow during pregnancy,it really helped with me being comfortable and getting some precious sleep. But it would be great for the pregnant women on the site to try out other items to help with pregnancy - I'm sure they would know and could talk to other pregnant women and help spread the word. | | | |

| | Yes, finding anything that can make your pregnancy more comfortable, especially in those last couple of months, is a blessing. | | | |

| | I third this! As the mother of a 6 week old daughter I'd love to see any maternity/baby items on here. (Fingers crossed for that Dunstan Baby Language program!) | | | |

| | My sister is currently pregnant with her first children and she's having twin girls (due in October) so I am currently keeping my eyes peeled for anything I can add to the 2 massive baby baskets I'm filling full of products for her. That way as she's going to be a first time mum she can try a bunch of different products and choose which ones work best for her and her babies without spending a ton of money. I'm such a good little sis! =0) | | | |

| The best item I found when I was pregnant was actually a book by Kaz Cooke called 'Up The Duff'
It gave me all the information I wanted/needed, but it didn't feel like I was reading a text book or studing for an exam. It had its serious sides to it, but let you relax in humour. It also has little areas where you can jot down your own experience etc. I found that I got more answers out of that book than with my GP! | | | |

| I bought my mum the razor that has the soap around the outside of it, and a foot srcuber from one of the home delivered catalogues that I recieved.
She loved both as she enjoyed the fact she could shave her legs quickly even at 8 months without having to worry about always bending to soap up her legs, and she could srub & massage her feet in the shower without bending over. Sadly the foot scrubber has worn out now and I cant find a new one, as my elderly nana also loved her one I bought for her that has also worn out. | | | |

| | I know Huggies are the most expensive, but I think they are top quality(less leaks) and good to have for at least the first few weeks. And I think after all a new Mum goes through, you really deserve to have the good quality. | | | |
