Preparing a gift basket for a pregnant friend?

We're due on the same day (!), but this is her first (my second). Obvious I want to do something fun and creative for her. I was thinking of a gift basket. What would you give? They are getting ready to move to our area with her husband's job, so I don't want to give them a lot of picture frame/candle clutter. Here are some things I thought of: 1) Pedicure coupon -- essential for the pregnant mom, fashionable to the very end! 2) Massage oil -- I prefer KY warming gel. It's great for massages and...other things. 3) Tums -- a staple for the pregnancy induced heart-burn. .... That's where I run out of ideas. Sad, I know. We're on a fairly tight budget (around $30-$40), so we can't do things that are just incredible. She's having a little boy! :-) We tried to find out today too, but our baby decided to be shy.
--------------------
How nice! The above are all great ideas! My favorite things when pregnant were comfy slippers, magazines (not necessarily just parenting ones), Comfy yoga style pants & t-shirt, and my body pillow - all would be great additions to what you have so far - especially that body pillow. Remember how hard it was to get comforable at nite - this was such a great discovery - slept pretty well with it - and still do!
