Your due date is on the horizon, and so is Valentine’s Day. Before you start shopping for your S.O. or buying next year’s gifts for your soon-to-be baby, pick the perfect present — for yourself. That’s right. Stop all the baby-related buying and gift yourself with a sweet, soothing, or splendidly fab treat. After all, you’re growing an entirely new human inside of your body. Doesn’t that seriously warrant at least a little self-indulgence right now?
