What ideas can I get for my 1st anniversary in a few weeks. She just bless me w/ our 1st child this week.?

This week was special because my wife blessed us with the birth of our 1st child, our son. She is really great with him %26amp; with me. We have always been romantic with each other. We have had plenty of surprises for each other, large %26amp; small, trips to jewlery to engravings to cards, etc. etc.





My only problem is that I really want to go over the top %26amp; I don%26#039;t know what to do/get. Flowers are typical %26amp; expected. Same for jewelry %26amp; cards.





I need a few unique ideas.

What ideas can I get for my 1st anniversary in a few weeks. She just bless me w/ our 1st child this week.?
get her a ring or piece of jewelry with the baby%26#039;s birth stone or all of your birth stones in it
Reply:Well, you%26#039;re going to have to be creative here, because she%26#039;s not going to be ready to leave the baby with anyone, and she may physically not be up to a %26quot;big%26quot; night out.





From a mom, probably the best thing you can do for her that day is fix (or arrange to have fixed) a nice meal for her. Fix it, clean it up, etc., make it so she doesn%26#039;t HAVE to lift a finger here. Paper is a traditional first anniversary gift, so I%26#039;d suggest a gift certificate to a day spa, for as many services as you can afford. Massage would be at the top of my list, followed by manicure, pedicure, facial, etc. Trust me, after giving birth, and dealing with the 9months of pregnancy before that, a day of pampering is probably JUST what the doctor ordered for her!





Congrats on the birth of your son, and on your first anniversary. May you be blessed with many more (children and anniversaries!)

OK, the spa thing is way overdone. What you need to achieve is to show her the following:


-your love


-her new role as a mother


-that she is a beautiful woman





So, what I would expect a guy to do for me, that would be ultimately romantic is to:


-buy her and the baby gorgeous outfits, get your picture taken, etc.


-then go for a romantic walk, and in this area - or your backyard if its warm enough, fill the trees with lights. Under these trees, give her a family ring


-fill your house with flowers - lots of them, and candles


-make her a romantic dinner, and see if you can get a small band to come and play some classical music to serenade her, slow dance


-get a cake made by the best pastry chef in town


-surprise her all day with gifts and tons of compliments


what do u think?
Reply:I remember that first week. Your on pins and needles because every sound the baby makes is new and you are so wrapped up in the child you now know who has the power. Its a little early to be going out but get a mom to babysit for a couple of hours and go to dinner and enjoy yourselves. The only thing your wife wants is a good night sleep. Give her some flowers and an I.O.U. for a night out later Just enjoy the new all powerful child.
Reply:Maybe a day with just the two of you. A break from the baby would be a gift in itself.
Reply:A few hours at a Day Spa with and having someone else coming in to take care of the baby.
Reply:Buy her a gift certificate for a manicure/pedicure or for a massage. As a new mom she may feel less than glamorous and she could use them when she feels like she needs to. Just remind her that she is beautiful to you no matter what. A hand written note telling her how much you love her and the ability to spend time for herself will be one of the greatest gifts you can give her.
