Hi, I am looking to put together a really nice box of treats for my missus. We have recently had a baby (6months) and I thought it would be nice to put her a little box together of things that will make her feel nice. I am open to suggestions, and thought some people on here might some nice ideas. I was thinking, a candle, something nice to wear, maybe nice pj’s some sexy bits too. Some luxuries items would be nice. Thanks, Tom
What a lovely idea! I had a baby 6 months ago myself and I think the things you've suggested sound really good!
If by sexy bits you mean underwear I'd probably recommend a babydoll, it's sexy but loose and covers any bits she may be a little conscious of atm, not saying she definitely is, I just know I am right now. If I was buying myself underwear atm I'd go with a basque/corset because it would suck in all my wobbly bits haha, but something so tight wouldn't work for lots of women who've not long had a baby. If you meant sexy bits as in toys etc it depends how she's feeling about all that atm. You could buy something like a new lube, or a pleasure balm maybe. If she's back to her normal self you could go with a toy you think she'd like, maybe a clitoral vibrator.
Put some things in that remind her to take a minute for herself such as a sachet of her favourite hot drink, some luxury bubble bath, a book, a voucher to get her hair cut and blow dried. Whatever you think would work for her.
Other than that I'd recommend putting a few of her favourite things in, chocolate, a flower etc. You could also put a little note in telling her she's doing great.
I'm sure whatever is in there, the gesture itself will mean the most to her. Top bloke for thinking of such a lovely idea!
What a lovely idea. Are you looking more for things Lovehoney sells or more general ideas?
If you want more general ideas, think about what she likes. If she enjoys a long soak in the bath, get bubble baths or bath bombs. Does she have a favourite indulgent food, like chocolates or cheese or anything that she doesn’t have too often? You could add her favourite drink as well. If she likes reading, a book or if there is a film or tv series she likes maybe a dvd. Does she collect anything? Even something simple like mugs, notebooks, candles.
If you are looking for inspiration from Lovehoney, have a look at the massage section as there are some great products. If you are looking for more lingerie type items something like a robe? If you want a sex toy, I would go with a pebble shaped vibrator as they make great clitoral toys but don’t scream sex toy and can be easily used all over the body
+1 on the massage things!
This is so lovely 😍 how thoughtful x Can't really add much to the above however I always love going for afternoon tea and spa and often get vouchers on Groupon so could be worth a look. Apart from that as suggested a nice massage oil would be nice of course with a free massage by you voucher 😊
Congratulations HandT, we're expecting 2nd nipper in Aug. But this was brilliant idea. Hopefully I remember to read this for ideas. OH loved bath bombs after our first baby. Also booked her for a body massage at local spa, helped her loads.
Congrsrulation, and what a fantastic idea. If you are looking to LH for treats i think a nice bubble bath for a bit of relaxation. Sliquid have a cherry blossoms and limoncello bubble bath https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=40630
Massage candle- the Coco De Mer massage candle is half price at the moment. It's beautiful and smells delightful. https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=32937 it's being discontinued so you may need to be quick.
Outfit wise- my wife loves this Babydoll. If she is feeling a little insecure about mummy tummy or just feeling a little bloated it helps her feel covered up (but you still see everything https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=38861
That is very thoughtful and sweet of you! There's already a bunch of great ideas, the only things I can add are:
- If the has a favourite toy, get a similar but upgraded one. If she's a beginner, you could treat her to 2-4 different toys.
- ''Coupons'' she can ''use'' by giving them to you when she wants you to do something. They can read ''good for one full-body massage'' or ''let me take care of our baby for x hours''. You get the idea. Small things that can make a hige difference. =)
Congratulations!
Such a fab idea, I have this bubble bath and I love it: https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=40630. She may especially love bath products, after not being able to bathe in warmer water for a while too during the pregnancy months. Something she can use to unwind for some 'me' time.
As someone who is expecting, I would really love it if my husband treated me to a hair appointment or a voucher for something like this, something that has felt neglected in pregnancy.
If you are thinking about luxury items for self-pleasure or couple play too, I would recommend the Coco de Mer range: https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/brands/coco-de-mer/. Packaging is a gift in itself tbh.
And when it comes to lingerie, IF she does feel a little self-conscious I can highly recommend this: https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=37320, works wonders for bump and I am sure it will do the post-pregnancy too. Plus if she still avoiding underwire, it is perfect!
Again loads of very great ideas. I would just add vouchers for time out, bubble bath, massage, lie in (if she is breast feeding and is ok to express that could make it easier for her to have a lie in. Make up counter make over with new easy make up?? Such a sweet idea.
Who said romance is dead, well done you and I bet your a great dad too.
Hi, amazing suggestions. I think I will definitely include the candles and all the little bits that will help her relax, hot chocolate, a book etc... I thing the coupons will be fun, I will use some of your ideas. My missus already has a pebble style vibe, I was thinking of a glass dildo? Seems like a luxurious toy, any insight on these would be great. I like the idea of a corset as she used to wear these when she was younger so nice to relive those memories or the more floaty suggestions maybe nicer. Any other ideas are welcome. Thanks,
I will definitely be checking out the coco de mer products, huge selection. Thanks, a couple of you mentioned those.
Glass is our jam.....
We took delivery of this today https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=25814 in all honesty it put the rest of our glass dildo's to shame aesthetically speaking. It is simply beautiful.
We have a lot of other glass dildo's, the Lovehoney beaded glass dildo is amazing for those that love a fuller feeling (using the bigger end) it's also the heaviest which people love (including us) the black version is current £15 https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=36044
The Lovehoney spiral https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=30947 has an incredible bulbous head and straighter shafted which is perfect for use with a clitoral stimulator.
Now I haven't tried the glass version of this design we have tried the Desire steel version and the two different ends add something different to the mix. It's like having two for one https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=30941 the slimmer end for teasing and the build up and then the bigger end to finish off with a more weighted fuller feeling.
Hi, thanks for the detailed feedback. Really like the black one and the spiral. Have you ever explored temperature with them, heard you can put them in the fridge or in warm water to mix it up. I’m going to need a big box for all this stuff. Thanks

Hi, Brilliant, I have added two to my basket. Currently in there: Sliquid Balance Soak Cherry Blossom Bubble Bath Mojo Pro Original Desire Pheromone Bath Bomb Coco de Mer Roseravished Massage Candle Lovehoney Spiral G-Spot Sensual Glass Dildo Lovehoney Ribbed G-Spot Sensual Glass Dildo Lovehoney Oh! Lucky You Scratch Cards
Sounds brilliant!
We haven't ever put ours in the fridge but our house is always kept quite cool at the moment. When we came to play the dildo was cold and it really did feel fantastic! It added that extra level of stimulation. I bet it'll feel even better if she's just came out of a warm bath!
Your partner is one very lucky lady!
Ha thank you. Doing my best. Do you think it’s worth including a note that says, use this... then this... now this. Or just leave it up to her, it’s her treat. Thanks.
