Gifts for New Moms | Holidays | Feathers and Stripes

Chances are, you know someone who is either expecting or a new mom, so today’s gift guide is all about them! I’m going to be publishing my gift guides over the next few weeks. I can’t believe we’re already talking Christmas – and yes, I did already start playing Christmas music… Even though T really doesn’t want anything Christmas in the house before Thanksgiving, I had to put on “Santa Baby” for the first time two days ago!

Best Gifts for A New Mom

one: A pair of the comfiest leggings and the robe/sweater that everyone wants once they feel it

two: A cozy throw for TV binging

three: Google Home, which will allow her to do things hands-free (like turn on a soothing playlist or add something to her shopping list)

four: A chic cross-body bag (because the diaper bag has become her everyday bag)

five: A fitness tracker to track all those steps she’s taking in the middle of the night 😉

six: a pretty water bottle (or coffee bottle!)

seven: cozy slippers

eight: Nice pajamas for those long afternoons

nine: A nice skincare set

Beauty goodies to make her feel pretty: A hair tie that won’t crease her hair when she has to do mom things, this 5-minute face mask in a bottle, a pretty lip stain, a really great mascara

other gifts for new moms…

A homecooked meal
An offer to watch the baby so she can take a shower/mindlessly scroll through Instagram/online shop/read a book
A gift card for a spa service or manicure/pedicure
Take a day off from work (clear the day ahead of time with the new mom) and spend the day with her and her baby. Meet up for lunch, wander the mall… It can get lonely being on maternity leave during the week!
