Re: need ideas... now that i am pregnant..

are you looking to stay with the spa day? you could still do massage, mani/pedi, facial.....or are you looking for something totally different?

How far along are u now? A massage in your first trimester is highly discouraged. There have been many reports of early miscarriage during this time -- supposedly related to the release in toxins that occurs with deep tissue massage. On that same note, be careful of a pedicure .... let them know you're preggo and they'll go very easy on the foot rub.

Re: need ideas... now that i am pregnant..

my DH got me a full day at the spa and it was GREAT!!!!! I was 27weeks at the time and had:
Massage
Facial
Lunch
Mani-Pedi
Hair cut
Make-up application

But.....whle it was great, I was so tired when it was done. I told him if he wanted to do that for me again, I'd be happy with just a massage and facial. Then mani-pedi on another day.

I'm surprised they let you get one - most spas/MDs say to wait until after the first trimester.

I would def. recommend a prenatal massage and mani/pedi Dee - enjoy the pampering while you can Chat Icon

my ob said it was fine and the spa simply turned off the heat pad that was on the massage table. i am glad i was able to do it, because it all felt good!
