You're pregnant friend is getting ready to bring that little bundle of joy into the world! And you want to help her stay comfortable and have whatever she needs in those moments before and after labor. Check out our mama-approved gift guide for mom's during labor & delivery!
We love seeing all the pregnancy announcements on our social feeds! But you know what a lot of people forget to help out with? Labor & delivery! The new mama still needs TLC even before her little one arrives and those precious hours post-delivery. Here's our list of gift ideas that will be the perfect before-baby care package that will let her know you're there for her!
It's tough to find time to eat, much less a comfortable spot to eat it. A food tray to set her meal on while laying in bed is a great way to lend a hand while she's juggling a newborn baby and snack at the same time.
We all know in those early days, laundry is going to the wayside. So you want to be living in something that's comfortable enough to sleep in. Keep her cozy in a set of cute, ultra-comfy matching pajamas so it's one less thing to worry about.
Mom's we know swear by fleece-lined slip ons as their go-to shoes for their swollen feet. Easy to slide into and works for indoors and out, they're perfect from the hospital stay to the first week at home and will keep her nice and warm.
When she needs something to keep her hair out of her face during those potentially long hours of labor, she's going to love her Lilac Market Headband. And she'll love getting her a matching Baby headband with an adorable bow she can adjust to make heading home feel that much sweeter!
Owala is the our personal favorite water bottle out there. It's so easy to sip from with its oversized straw and has a super easy flip lid with a push button for one-handed use. Choose her favorite colors so she can easily stay hydrated during the labor and delivery process.
One way to keep a new mom feeling her best is to help her love the skin she's in! A moisturizing allover body lotion with a lovely, light scent will be just the thing that will let her feel nurtured without bothering baby, too.
For those days when she does venture out or needs a pick-me-up from sleepless nights, make sure she has a gift card to her favorite coffee or tea shop! Sipping on something soothing will give her and her baby a little boost in their day.
Nothing could be kinder than hand-written words your new mom can cherish for a lifetime. Cards and letters during this big life change, reminding her she is loved and supported, can be all she needs while she's navigating this season of life. Let her know you care and write a letter to her newest addition, too!
