The hot tubs at Spa Bellagio.

With news that Sarah Michelle Gellar has a little vampire slayer in the oven and Mother’s Day just around the corner (May 10, if you haven't already marked your calendars), I got to thinking…how many people actually treat the mothers-to-be in their lives to their first Mother’s Day? MGM Mirage has several spa treatments that are perfect for those who are expecting this Mother's Day, so why not surprise them to something a little unexpected (but desperately needed) this May--a relaxing spa day?

Spa Bellagio has a soothing, 50-minute Expecting Mother Massage ($130) on its menu for women in their second or third trimester. The luxurious, 55,000-square-foot spa is open daily from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Call 702-693-7472.

For those looking for a quick pick-me-up, The Spa at New York-New York offers a Mommy-To-Be massage in both 25-minute and 50-minute durations ($65 and $115, respectively). The treatment, which allows those celebrating their first Mother’s Day a chance to revel in relaxation before motherhood arrives, uses various positioning and modalities to customize the service in conjunction with the term of pregnancy. Like Spa Bellagio's Expecting Mother Massage, the Mommy-To-Be massage isn’t performed during the first trimester. The Spa at New York-New York is open daily from 6:30 a.m. until 7 p.m., with services beginning at 8 a.m. Call 702-740-6955 for reservations or simply visit The Spa at New York-New York‘s online reservation page to surprise the mom-to-be in your life this Mother’s Day.

Mothers are known for being nurturing, so why not treat the new mother in your life to a day at Nurture–The Spa at Luxor (pictured left)? The spa’s 50-minute Mother Nurture treatment ($130) is a complete body massage using specific, prenatal techniques to help moms relax, increase circulation, alleviate tired muscles and reduce excess water retention. It's just what the doctor ordered for soon-to-be mothers in need of some special attention. Once again, this service can only be done after the first trimester. Nurture is open daily from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Call 1-800-258-9308 or visit Nurture's online reservation page to book an appointment today.

Finally, the Grand Spa at MGM Grand offers a Prenatal Massage (50 minutes, $135 Mon.-Thur.; $145 Fri.-Sun.) that's choreographed to nurture expectant mothers. The Swedish massage is delivered with a special technique that's perfect for that special mom-to-be. Grand Spa is open to the public Mon.-Thur. from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and to hotel guests only Fri.-Sun. from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Call 702-891-3077.
