Understandably people love buying gifts for newborn babies, from cute onesies to stuffed animals. But after a new baby arrives, the person going through the most change — and who could use the most support — is, arguably, the new mom.
New moms have a lot of change to deal with. Not only are they responsible for their very own, brand new human, but they have to adjust to a life without a full night's sleep, get used to leaving the house with a suitcase's worth of bags and accessories, and have to reckon with the fact that she essentially has no more time to herself.
But one thing that shouldn't have to change? Feeling like herself. That's why we've collected a list of gifts for new moms that focus on things that make their life even the tiniest bit easier while so much is changing.
Whether she's been missing her skincare routine or loves to cook but just doesn't have the time anymore to think about grocery shopping, there are plenty of thoughtful gift ideas for new moms out there. From an anti-aging skin serum that's safe for breastfeeding and an under-eye balm that'll fake a full night's sleep, to a diaper backpack that doesn't look like a diaper bag and wet bags to organize the inside of it, we've meticulously curated a guide to everything we think new moms would love to be gifted after having a baby.
