Getting someone in your inner circle the right holiday Gift can be nerve-wracking. Getting the right gift for your friend who just had a baby can be even more difficult. However, that doesn’t mean you should pick up a pack of onesies or a baby blanket at your local boutique and call it a day. After all, how many of the same gifts can your friend use? Instead, get them one of these unexpected gifts for new moms—and uniquely useful (and thoughtful)—presents they’re sure to use and love.
Top 5 Gifts for New Moms
Wubbanub Pacifiers:
Beloved by parents worldwide, Wubbanub Pacifiers combines an adorable stuffed animal and a pacifier. These solve many parents’ age-old conundrum when their little one wants to use a pacifier for self-soothing but perpetually spits theirs out.
These thoughtful gifts are not only cute, they’re practical. The stuffy can be detached from the pacifier when the baby has outgrown its binky, leaving it with a sweet, cuddly keepsake.
Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Backpack:
The only thing better than a well-equipped baby bag? One with an aesthetic that doesn’t scream, “This is full of diapers and baby bottles!” The Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Backpack comes in multiple stylish colorways, from black to blush.
It looks as stylish as any bag your new mom friend might have carried pre-baby and is also outfitted in details that make it perfect for caregivers. These include a fold-out changing mat, a trolly sleeve that easily attaches it to a suitcase, and 15 pockets, including a dedicated tech pocket perfect for parents working on the go.
A Kindle:
Many parents can attest that many long nights are spent holding your newborn and doing very little else. To make those evenings go by a little bit faster—and more enjoyably—get the new mom in your life a Kindle so she can catch up on her favorite book while her little one snoozes peacefully on her.
Moby Easy-Wrap:
Give the new mom in your life the gift of hands-free comfort by getting them a Moby Easy-Wrap carrier this holiday season. This stylish carrier is perfect for new moms. It simply slips on over their heads and buckles at the waist (providing security for those who aren’t comfortable tying a wrap yet). Plus, it can be used with children from 8 to 33 pounds.
A massage gift certificate:
Of course, not every great gift for new moms comes in a box with a bow. If you want to get the new mom in your life something she’ll truly cherish, spring for a massage gift certificate at her favorite local spa. Between the months she spent pregnant, she gave birth to her little one, and the countless hours she’s spent holding her baby, she could certainly use the relaxation.
