23 Gifts to Spoil The New Mom On Your List

Is there anything better than beanie season? I’m sure my fellow moms will agree – not only are beanies super cute and cozy, they’re also the perfect way to hide messy mom hair. We especially love this pick from Love Your Melon: it’s made with two layers of soft cotton and LYCRA for a stretchy fit, and it even has the option to add a removable pom!

If she’s been busy baby-proofing her home, why not help her soften up her jewelry stack? We love this limited edition set from QALO x Eva Shockey, though the brand offers tons of different stackable colors and styles. These silicone rings are soft, stretchy and stylish – all music to new a mom's ears! These are a thoughtful, out-of-the-box pick that mama is sure to appreciate.

Whether she’s expecting or going through the ups and downs of postpartum, Farmaesthetics is here to make sure the new mama on your list feels her best.

It’s a gorgeous gift set that radiates calm (something she’s undoubtedly craving). Thanks to you, her bathroom shelf will be lined with little luxuries she can indulge in when she needs them most.

While the Newton Baby Crib Mattress is certainly on the pricier end, you just can’t put a price on knowing your child is safe and sound. The rest I’ve been able to have knowing this, as well as your baby sleeping in is priceless. But don’t take my word for it – try it yourself for 100 days risk-free. You might just catch yourself falling in love… and falling asleep easier.

Piecing together a cute outfit for the day becomes less of a priority when all your energy is focused on navigating life with a newborn. That’s where this cozy romper from Smash + Tess comes in. The one-and-done ensemble can be dressed up or down, depending on the day’s vibe and itinerary, but it’s an especially great option for moms that want to feel comfortable and, more importantly, comforted. Made with a sustainable blend of rayon derived from bamboo and cotton, and available in sizes 3XS to 4X, this one-piece will keep the new mom on your list warm and snug. (We have a feeling cuddly babies will love it, too!)

Pregnancy has an effect on a woman’s period, and it’s not always smooth sailing when Mother Nature returns after a 9-month (plus)-long hiatus. The Rael Period bestsellers set can help her cope. A personal favorite of this writer, Rael’s products are organic, cruelty- and chemical-free, and a 100% holistic way to support the menstrual cycle. The set includes regular pads, feminine wipes, and a feminine wash, plus the brand’s heating patches that have been infused with lemon balm, juniper berry, jasmine, dandelion root, and rosehip to relax the pelvic muscles and promote a healthy blood flow.

If the new mom on your list just happens to be a chocoholic, a box of Hu Kitchen is sure to curb her ravenous pregnancy cravings. Unlike other candy bars on the block riddled with additives that taste good but aren’t great for your body, Hu bars offer the best taste and ingredients (think organic cacao, unrefined organic coconut sugar, and organic fair-trade cocoa butter) in each and every bite. Ergo, give her the gift of guilt-free indulgence with this small box of the brand’s simple and salty flavors. Her tastebuds will thank you.

For the new mom on your list who loves fine jewelry, a gorgeous letter necklace by Helen Ficalora would make a stunning addition to any collection. Choose between four lengths (15, 16, 17, or 18-inch) and the number of letters you’d like included to customize your gift. Whether you spell out their pride and joy’s name or stick with initials, the accessory makes for a beautiful keepsake the sentimental mama in your life will cherish for years to come.

Sleep? What’s that? To new moms, a fantasy at best, but you can give them the gift of a good night’s (err - few hours) rest with the Pluto Pillow. Once your recipient receives their gift voucher (via email or snail mail), they’ll log on to plutopillow.com, redeem their gift, and fill out a questionnaire. The data they input into the system will help the Pluto team design the perfect pillow for their specific needs and in just seven days’ time, they’ll be snoozing so well, they won’t even need that full eight hours.

Penned by a new mama herself, MCB founder Devon Loftus teamed up with nutritionist Jenna Radomski on this stunning cookbook to offer and educate menstruators on the best recipes for each phase of their cycle. It’s the perfect resource for new moms and moms-to-be to honor their bodies with nutrient-rich, hormone-supporting, and highly delicious food from sweets to savory dishes and so many snacks. Plus, it makes for a beautiful addition to any cookbook collection — one your lucky recipient will love to have on display in her kitchen.

Just because she’s trading in her favorite purse for a diaper bag doesn’t mean she has to sacrifice her style. Case in point: This diaper bag backpack from actress and entrepreneur Shay Mitchell’s luggage brand, Béis. The sleek tote-and-backpack in one comes well-stocked with everything you need for a successful diaper change, including a changing pad with a diaper and baby wipes pocket, an odor-proof pouch, teething ring, and pacifier pouch. It’s functional, fashionable, and travel-friendly — the perfect gift for new moms on the go.

Mother’s know it best: Time is of the essence, so if you can capture precious moments on film and put them in a book parents can go back to and revisit, can look back fondly on, that’s a gift worth giving. Paper Culture’s editorial-style album compiles snapshots and creates memory books that will take your recipient’s breath away. If you’re leaning towards a sentimental gift, this one’s a winner.

Mom life, at least in the beginning, puts frequent trips to the coffee shop on pause. Luckily, Seven Grams Caffe can bring the coffee shop experience to the new mom on your list by way of its gorgeous gift boxes. The New York-based independent roaster and bakery bakes each online order fresh, which means mom can enjoy Seven Grams ooey-gooey and ultra-chocolatey Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies fresh out of the oven, but in the comfort of their own home. The gift box comes stocked with six treats and a 12oz bag of our Nicaragua Single Origin coffee beans, plus an embossed reusable tumbler to keep her cup warm (since you know she’ll most likely have to set it down a few times before she finishes).

Life looks a little different with a baby in tow. If the new mom on your list is feeling the chaos, this guided journal by Lavendaire can help instill a sense of calm. The undated planner is filled with guided pages that feature prompts and encouraging quotes. For anyone who values self-reflection and goal-setting, this brilliant notebook is a gem.

At the end of a long day, new moms simultaneously want to be held, but also don’t want to be touched by another human. The solution? A cozy weighted blanket that can wrap her up and give her that physical, soothing support she craves. This one from Bearaby comes in three soothing colorways (Cloud White, Moonstone Grey, and Asteroid Grey) and weighs 35lbs. It’s made from cotton and is spot-treatable with warm water and soap, making things even easier for mom.

If her doctor has given her the green light to get back to exercising, but she isn’t ready to head back to the gym just yet, enter the DB Method. This writer can attest to the method’s magic; it’s a squat machine that’s, well, more than a squat machine. Because it aligns to take pressure off the knees and back, it’s easy on the joints and helps to not only shape the booty, but also strengthen the glutes and core. And considering her space might be a little tight these days thanks in large to baby toys and playpens, the machine folds up nice and compactly, so she can stash it under the bed or in a closet when not in use.

Moms are constantly on their feet, and with the warm weather months just within reach, her souls could use some pampering, too. TKEES new Ines Shearling flats are the ultimate house slipper. While the slides are stylish enough to wear out, the new mom on your list won’t want to take them off indoors, either, thanks to the 100% shearling insole that will keep her feet nice and toasty. Available in four colors and sizes five through 11, the shoes run small, so if you’re in between sizes, rounding up is recommended.

If there’s anything the new mom in your life will likely not be doing… it’s getting dressed up and going out. Lots of lounging is the life of a new momma, so treat her to a luxe lounge set she’ll love. I adore my lounge robe, pants, and shirt from Subset (formerly Knickey). It makes me feel a little more put-together on those showerless days and I would gladly receive it as a gift again and again.

When you’re a parent, all things that you thought were yours seem to become theirs. It can feel like nothing is sacred! Treat mom to a totally-customized candle to suit her scent preferences. You can gift her a whole candle that she can make herself (quickly, I might add!) or a gift a voucher for a scent kit ($35).

I live in athleisure as a mom, so any gifts up that alley are welcomed by me! Love All offers cute athleisure with a unique take on the tenniscore trend. Even better, they donate 10% of each purchase to Sandal Gap Studio, a non-profit that seeks to bridge the understanding gap between society and people with disabilities.

Is the mom-to-be in your life missing wine a bit? We feel her, and so does French Bloom, a gorgeous 0% alcohol French bubbly. Made from actual fermented wine grapes that have been de-alcoholized, I can attest that this is one NA drink that does not taste like straight-up juice. I’ll cheers to that!

In case it wasn’t abundantly clear, we at TQE love Molekule’s effective and beautifully-designed air purifiers. The Air Mini+ is a more approachable price-point as a gift, but mom will love to breathe easy knowing that her family is taking in cleaner, better-for-them air.

Look, I know I may be a little late to the mushroom party, but it’s a party that everyone should join. Four Sigmatic offers exceptional quality mushroom products to boost memory, energy, focus… you name it. I have been consistently impressed by the founders’ knowledge of mushrooms and passion for educating people on them. The new mom on your list may not know about mushrooms, but chances are, she might need a little boost of energy or focus. Four Sigmatic is a perfect entry for her soon-to-be mushroom love.
