I love these with a burning passion: I'd have one set with the baby's birthstone. The symbolism of the man and woman together supporting their child is hard to beat.
Oh! I also really want one of those Carrie type necklaces (sex and the city). Gold with my baby's name. I don't know kinda silly but still fun. Maybe just an letter? Either way I think that's sweet
I'd pick something simple and classic, rather than a trendy item. Which month will the baby be born? Maybe a pendant w/the birth stone or a simple eternity ring w/the birth stones. If the baby is a girl, I'd want it to be something that could be passed down to her w/out being dated.
I agree with MC. My daughter was born in October, and my husband found a pretty pink tourmaline with a diamond halo on bluenile for around $650. They have them without halos for under $500.
Why don't you do a Pandora bracelet. You can do the bracelet and a charm for her birthday and a charm for the babies birthday. Then a charm from you in gold......they add up quick but this way you can also add as your lives continue and have other occassions.
A ring to stack with your wedding set would be nice. You can get a pink sapphire band in your budget. This is from blue nile for $600 but they have coupons sometimes. You can also find a pink sapphire band pre-loved on ebay.
I stack a blue sapphire band with my diamond eternity. It was my push present to myself .
if this is your first purchase from WF youd get an extra $75 off, also, they might give you a PS discount. It would still bein the 500's so not 500 or under, but its got rubies!
