15. Nursing Pillow 

Breastfeeding can be a bit of a learning curve, but a good nursing pillow can make it a lot easier.

You can find nursing pillows at most baby stores, or online on Amazon.

While this list is a great place to start, it's always best to ask your pregnant wife directly what she needs or wants. Every woman is different, and what works for one may not work for another. You can start by having an open and honest conversation with her about her pregnancy, how she's feeling, and what would make her feel more comfortable. She may have specific needs or preferences that you may not have thought of. Ultimately, your wife knows best what will make her feel happy and supported during this special time, and the best gift you can give her is your understanding, love, and support.

The Best Socks for Pregnant Moms in Labor

Our mission is to provide laughter and joy to people going through tough times. It's especially needed in a hospital. Often, patients receive hospital gifts like flowers, teddy bears or cards. We have heard several requests for changes in the traditional hospital grip sock, like making it fitted, removing the toe seam, creating better designs, and adding hospital sock colors. We've launched our own take on hospital grip socks based on this feedback and hope you love it as much as the traditional ones! Our hospital grip socks are for those who need a smile, in and out of the ER in any slippery situation.
