la frase = /massaggio dolce attesa per le future mamme/ il contesto è una lista di trattamenti termali. Cerco un termine inglese che abbia la 'dolcezza' dell'italiano e che non sia "mum or mother to be" che viene usato dopo-in questo momento proprio non mi viene...grazie per ogni suggerimento!

| yes thanks Shera, pampering is what it is but maybe I'd use it more for the description of the massage rather than it's name |
Peer comment(s):
| agree |
philgoddard
: Good idea - I prefer your first suggestion, which would obviously have to be followed by the word 'massage'.
