The Ultimate Mother’s Day Gift Guide for New Mothers
thoughtful Gifts that take care of a New Mom While She takes care of her new Baby
Blush Pink Floral Maternity and Postpartum Robe from Nurtured 9
New Mothers are of course overjoyed at the arrival of their new precious baby! With this beautiful addition and new role comes a laundry list of new to-dos, challenges, and unknowns. Not to mention, she is also recovering from her biggest test of strength and endurance: labor, delivery, and possibly surgery. All of this on little-to-no sleep!
It is so important to remind Moms to take time for themselves, which is why we have curated the Ultimate Gift Guide for New Mothers in preparation for Mother’s Day! Mom-care is not a luxury, it's a necessity and whether or not she wants to admit it, she would love a pick-me-up!
We have compiled a list of first Mother's Day gift ideas and are here to help guide you on just what she needs during this special time (& some things she doesn't even know she wants, but soon won't live without!).
The Peaceful Postpartum Gift Box
The first item on our Mother’s Day gift guide is the Peaceful Postpartum Gift Box, which has become one of our bestselling new mom gifts at Nurtured 9. And for good reason! It contains some of our favorite cozy-up items, like cushy slippers, reparative tea, healing and milk-stimulating cookies, soothing candle and sweetly sentimented "Moment for Mama" matches. This gift box is the perfect combination of relief and extra special comforts, plus the presentation is so beautiful. Mom will feel cared for and will have no choice but to kick up her feet for a moment with a sweet treat and (maybe) peace, just for her.
The Replenish & Restore New Mom/Postpartum Gift Box
This gift for the new mom has been thoughtfully curated to include an assortment of elevated yet practical items that are perfect for a new mom during her “fourth trimester”. From nursing discomforts to middle-of-the-night feedings to postpartum hair loss (yup, it’s a thing), this new mom gift box tackles all of the essentials in a way that makes her feel truly pampered. It also includes our new Nurtured 9 Multi-Use Nursing Wrap that’s silky, stretchy, stylish, and so practical, giving Mom that extra bit of privacy she may prefer as she beings her breastfeeding journey. This new mom care package is full of beautiful items to help this new mama feel more comfortable in her skin, and help you show HER just how much you care.
Soothing Recovery Postpartum Gift Box
This new mom gift box is all about healing Mama after birth, inside and out, so she can feel supported, comforted, and healthy. With an all-natural sitz bath from Mother Mother and a cookbook specifically for nourishing the new mother, she can begin her soothing & healing process. Our non-toxic candle in the Bloom scent, and our silky soft & feminine pajama set (that is nursing friendly) will remind her to take precious moments for herself and keep her feeling luxuriated while in the whirlwind of caring for baby.
The Ultimate Mother’s Day Gift Box
This luxurious Mother’s Day gift box has been curated JUST FOR HER. It includes a silky robe in a beautiful floral print, cozy Just For You Mama socks with non-slip grippers on the bottom & a cushy sleep mask to wrap Mom in love. A sparkly snack, relaxing non-toxic candle & all-natural bath bomb say "take a minute for you"! Everything a new Mom could ever dream to feel truly loved and appreciated for all her hard work.
Some of our other favorite postpartum gifts and new Mom gifts that would make lovely first Mother’s Day gifts include:
A Nurtured 9 Delivery Robe to cozy up during night feedings and feel chic during the day when real clothes just aren't an option.
Our Just for You Mama Water Bottle or Mug Mama needs to stay hydrated...and probably also needs some coffee; these tick the box with the added sweet sentiment "Just for You Mama".
A Non-Toxic soothing candle and matches to encourage her to take a moment to relax.
You're A F*Ing Awesome book, you know, as a reminder!
Our new Mama Bracelet collab with Love Is Project to give her strength and a little sparkle in her new role, while also supporting a great cause.
Her first Mother’s Day is certainly reason to celebrate, so send Mom this gorgeous set of champagne glasses featuring a gold rim.
Along with those champagne glasses, send her a gift card so she can order bubbles from our friends at www.WeDrinkBubbles.com!
Our Plush Socks with Non-Slip Grippers to keep Mama comfortable and warm while lounging at home.
Silky Nurtured 9 mint green floral pjs (nursing friendly) so that Mom feels comfy and stylish.
A fluffy, plush sherpa-lined sleep mask to gently block out light so that Mom can take a nap.
Lastly, our Ultimate Gift Guide for New Mothers doesn't stop with Nurtured 9. Here are some other awesome ways to take the best care of the New Mom this Mother’s Day!
Book her a massage so she has a moment of peace and to soothe her achy body from hunching over to coo at baby (& change diapers!)
Offer to babysit so Mom can take a walk, lay down for a nap or go out on a fun date night.
Send her favorite takeout because she is so busy and needs fuel!
Buy her a membership to Instacart or Shipt so she can same day order her needs.
Offer to book her a cleaning service so she can maybe nap when baby naps instead of try to clean.
Ask her how she’d like to spend Mother’s Day! She may enjoy a fancy brunch at a restaurant, a special family outing or activity, or prefer to be comfy and cozy lounging at home.
