Well if you want to get your wife a REAL present, something that will do something besides look pretty, I'd recommend a maid service. Knowing its easier to take care of the house will help a lot during the recovery period.

Oh my God, Ustwo, you and I are on the same wavelength today!
As someone who works with moms a LOT, sometimes even new moms, I really second Ustwo's suggestion of a maid service. Great practical gift.
And start looking NOW to establish a relationship with an occasional childcare provider (babysitter). Your wife will want a break from the baby at some point after it's born, and choosing a good childcare provider can take time.
