    Just make sure they don't use oils that aren't recommended in pregnancy.

    Hope your headache and pain goes soon.

    I had one and it was HEAVEN. the price was pretty good and they had a special chair, i nearly fell asleep
    They also say to avoid certain pressure points while PG so def go for a proper massage parlor with a specialised PG massage.

    I had one when I was 32weeks and LOVED it. I went to a great place. They had a special pillow that let me lay on my belly and she used warmed baby oil. I paid $65 for 1 hour and it was well worth it.

    Go for it

    Sounds tempting. Average price here is $75 for an hour, but I did find one place offering a special of 2 hour long massages for $125. I might have to redo my budget lol.

    ZF - Yes I would definitely go somewhere that specialises in pregnancy massage.

    Lysndan - The place I am looking at going run baby massage etc too, and she is a midwife. I am pretty sure they would know what to use but I'll check anyway.

    Thanks everyone for replying

    Yep, do it! It was great - and think of it as a treat for bubs, too! My massage included belly rubs (all by a qualified person!) and although initially it felt odd, I think baby did enjoy it!

    I am just dreaming of my feet, legs, back and neck lol. I don't like being massaged anywhere else..

    I've had one last preg and one this preg and honestly, not worth it IMO. They tread fairly lightly and I prefer a harder massage.
