Gifting a loved one who has embarked on the journey of motherhood is a special thing. If you find the right gift for your sister, relative, or friend who’s a first-time mother, they’ll remember you for it!
But as much as we want to give them things they need, those are the items they most likely already have or have been given during their pregnancy. It may be tricky, but going with a present that is useful, reusable, and comforting is key. Extra points if it’s convenient and gives them a couple more hours of sleep!
1. Swaddle: A swaddle is a must-have for babies, and while it may be easy to find, giving a high-quality one with a cute design would make a lovely gift.
2. Towel: You can never have too many towels, especially when they look as cute as this. With the right size and a hood to boot, their baby can use this up when they grow up!
3. Portable diaper changing pad: When mama is on-the-go, she’ll have all the essentials. But a nice portable diaper changing pad gives them a nice station to bring with them for nappy changes.
4. Long-sleeve shirt: Buying newborn clothing with side ties allows mama to slip on and off with ease! High-quality ones like this made of 100% knit cotton are an underrated must-have in any baby closet.
5. Hydrating cleanser for baby: This hydrating cleanser protects babies from bacteria, heat, and pollution. Gift this to any mama and they'll surely thank you for preserving their little one's skin with all-natural ingredients!
6. Tank top & shorts set for baby: The most practical gift you could give a mama is something easily handed down to their next little blessings! Save for example this cute tank top & shorts set featuring proudly Pinoy designs on breathable materials.
7. Rattle: Gifts for baby go a long way for a new mama, especially ones she can use as hand-me-downs if there will be a second. This rattle is not just a toy, but a little teacher for the early age!
8. Ring sling: You can’t go wrong with gifting high-quality carrier for a new babywearing mama! Choosing a versatile carrier like a ring sling would let your loved one and her baby grow into it as they grow together.
9. Projector: Before the baby can hold a gadget, introducing audio visual sensory to them is important. Also important, helping put the little one to sleep! This projector sets the perfect atmosphere with soft colors and different sounds.
10. Nipple cream: For new, first-time mamas, it’s instinctual for them to focus all their energy on their baby and forget themselves. Gifting a breastfeeding a mama something only for her and her wellbeing is a nice reminder of self care.
11. Nursing bra: An extra piece of item meant for easy nursing is always a plus for a mama. Gift a nursing bra that gives the right support for her!
12. Heat pack: Although mamas can’t hit the spa, you can bring the spa to her. A body wrap that uses aromatherapy and heat is the perfect de-stress BFF for them!
13. Pajamas: Hang with your mama friend in spirit by gifting her the cutest, comfiest loungewear set that also lets her nurse in peace.
