Choosing a Christmas gift for a pregnant woman means thinking about her comfort above all. During these very special months, simple things like putting on shoes, finding the right position on the sofa or staying warm take on a whole new dimension. The most appreciated gifts are often the most practical ones, as long as they're soft and pretty.
The essentials
- Go for things that slip on easily, with no laces or tricky fastenings.
- Budget: from €15 for a small treat to €70 for a generous gift.
- Clogs with an adjustable buckle are easy to adapt to the foot.
- For any health question, the advice of her midwife or doctor is what counts.
What really matters to a mum-to-be
Every pregnancy is different, but many mums-to-be share the same wishes: feeling comfortable, staying warm, resting and taking a little time for themselves. A good gift meets one of these needs, without making her feel she's being reduced to her bump. So avoid purely "baby" items: this Christmas, she's the one being spoiled.

8 gift ideas for a pregnant woman
1. Bormio fur-lined clogs (€39.99)
Open at the back, Bormio fur-lined clogs slip on without bending down or using your hands: a real plus as the bump grows. Their faux-fur lining goes up to the collar, their sole is cork-effect and cleated, and their buckle is adjustable. Sizes 35 to 45, in black, camel, grey, brown, taupe or saffron.
2. The Sienna clog (€39.99)
For the woman who wants a pair to wear all year round, including after the birth. The Sienna clog, in vegan velvet, slips on in a second and its metal buckle lets you adjust the fit. Sizes 36 to 47.
3. Alba outdoor slippers (€39.99)
Lined, closed at the back, with a cleated platform sole, Alba slippers can be worn indoors and out. Handy for taking the bins out or grabbing the post without hunting for shoes. Sizes 36 to 45.
4. Merano slippers (€34.99)
The ultimate soft gift, with their faux-fur cuff and vegan velvet. Pink and beige are among the softest colours to give.
5. A large pregnancy pillow (€40 to €70)
Long, U-shaped or C-shaped, it helps her find a comfortable position on the sofa or in bed. It will also come in handy later, for cuddles and feeds.
6. A stretchy loungewear set (€30 to €60)
Soft-waisted trousers and a roomy jumper in a soft knit: the ideal outfit for December evenings, which she'll keep wearing after the birth.
7. A pretty pregnancy journal (€15 to €30)
To jot down her feelings, stick in the scans and keep a record of these unique months. A sentimental gift that will grow in value over time.
8. Homemade "helping hand" vouchers (free to €50)
A meal cooked and delivered, a cleaning session, an afternoon of doing her shopping: slip a few vouchers into an envelope. It's often the gift that will touch her most.
Choosing the right size during pregnancy
Some women find their usual shoes become less comfortable as the months go by. For a gift, a few simple reflexes:
- Start from her usual size, and go one size up if in doubt.
- Choose adjustable styles, such as clogs with an adjustable buckle, or roomy shapes.
- If she has wide feet, take a look at our selection of shoes for wide feet.
- Check our size guide. And if needed, size exchange is free.
Putting together a cosy gift box
Want to make it special? Gather several little treats in a basket: a pair of slippers or clogs, soft socks, a throw, a book and a handwritten note. With the 2-pair pack at €59.99 from Build your pack, you can even give one pair for indoors and one for going out.
Think of the dad-to-be or the other parent too: a matching pair, and the gift becomes a nod to the growing family.
