30 Chic (and Fail-safe) Gifts to Give New and Expecting Moms

A new mom is always on her feet and always on the go. Ensure she stays active in comfort and in style with a top-rated pair of Asics sneakers.

For the mom who appreciates artistic expression, Clairborne Swanson Frank’s aesthetically appealing book celebrates modern motherhood through glossy photography that captures the bond between a mother and her child.

You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. And for all the new moms out there, that’s uninterrupted sleep. These red LED night lights help promote quality sleep and minimal disruption. One reviewer offered, “Perfect for feeding or changing a baby in the middle of the night! The auto red light turns on with motion so no need to fumble with a switch, and because it’s a red light, there is less disturbance to everyone.”

Being a new mom sometimes means moving a mile a minute. Amongst the many drops and spills, ensure her phone isn’t one of the casualties with a protective phone case.

It’s one thing to be sleep-deprived, and another to look it. Wander Beauty’s foil eye masks are meant to brighten, hydrate, and reduce the appearance of dark circles and fine lines. Plus, these little sheets can be easily applied and left to work their magic while she’s busy multitasking.

Have a luxury lover you’re shopping for? Avoid the hassle of styling and deter the baby from pulling at your hair with this chic and easy Prada claw clip.

The cutest gift she never knew she needed, this silver bunny picture frame is made from 100 percent recycled material and ready to house the sweetest photo of her little cherub. You can also elect to have this custom engraved, making it a foolproof gift for a baby shower or a 1st birthday.

For strollers and travel accessories, nobody does it better than Nuna. The DEMI™ Next set includes the stroller, rider board, and car seat adapter, as well as a laundry list of premium features including multiple seating options and a ventilated canopy.

Newborns don’t come with an instruction manual, but the What to Expect series is the next best thing. In fact, my own mom confessed these books to be a thankless guide.

Capture that idyllic new baby smell and freshen things up with this Homesick candle, which features notes of ylang ylang and baby powder.

Delicate and timeless, this 14k gold diamond necklace can be customized with a meaningful initial charm.

For the pumping and breastfeeding mamas, this bestselling balm is meant to soothe nipples with organic ingredients like mango, shea butter, and beeswax. It also works well on dry lips or cuticles.

For women with a penchant for designer bags, sacrificing a favorite clutch or crossbody for a Swiss Army knife-style diaper bag might deal a great blow. The Gucci canvas diaper bag offers the best of both worlds so she can carry her love of luxury into her new lifestyle.

Unfortunately, thinning hair isn’t uncommon after pregnancy, thanks to the fall in estrogen levels. This cruelty-free serum by Vegamour has reviewers online and all across TikTok praising its ability to reduce hair fallout while strengthening and softening.

Sometimes the most practical gifts are most appreciated. No matter what kind of mom you’re gifting, this diaper subscription box will never go to waste (no pun intended).

Those first few weeks and months of motherhood will fly by, so give the gift of being able to log the most precious and treasured memories.

While moments of rest are few and far between for a new mom, this dreamy-soft vegan cashmere blanket will optimize all the nap time she does manage to get.

When in doubt, let those better equipped than you put together the perfect gift. We Are Amma’s postpartum kit includes lactation tea, an herbal sitz bath, handmade massage oil, and an all-natural nipple balm—all beautifully packaged. All you have to do is hand it over.
