30 baby shower gifts for moms that make them feel loved & supported

Anya’s doctor-backed postpartum supports can help with everything from postnatal depletion and milk supply to hair loss and skin struggles, healing you from the inside out. The Full Body Restore Set comes packed with the Nipple Balm, Postpartum Hair Serum, and Body Butter which are all made with clean, vegan ingredients and safe for breastfeeding moms.

Oh, girl, the sleep deprivation is about to be REAL. Give her a fighting chage to A favorite among Motherly editors and celebs alike, the silk eye masks from Drowsy might just be her new BFF. The velcro closure doesn’t scratch and keeps it firmly in place even while tossing and turning, without leaving marks. It’s supremely soft and squishy and best of all can be tossed in the wash. (Still, we recommend a dark color because the lighter colors can look grody quickly thanks to skincare and general wear.)

Bodily is one of our fave brands for pregnancy and postpartum support. Their warming Postpartum Recovery Latte includes an impressive blend of superfoods like turmeric, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper which blend together with water or milk to create a cozy before bedtime bev.

When you kind of don’t want to wear anything around the house, this is the answer. Bumpsuit’s Nightshirt is impressively soft and lightweight with a high/low hem that keeps your bum covered but doesn’t twist around and get all annoying when you’re sleeping. It’s like stealing a dude’s oversize tee but better.

In the first weeks post-baby, she’s going to need all the soothing comfort she can get. The convenient and reusable hot and cold packs from Private Packs are designed like a menstrual pad to sit right where it counts, offering sweet relief from postpartum discomforts. Price is for a set of 3.

If a little self-care luxury is in order, this splurgey set from Mutha delivers. The celeb and beauty editor-loved brand–clad in its signature violet chrome packaging–makes nurturing part of their mission and it shows. In this set you’ll find their cult-favorite Body Butter and ultra hydrating Body Oil which both help to nourish and hydrate postpartum skin with hardworking ingredients like shea, cocoa, and mango butters, along with vitamins, fatty acids, and pure seed extracts. The citrusy scent is light but pleasant and makes the whole process feel like a luxe ritual.

Cashew butter, oats, flaxseeds and dates come together to create the perfect post-birth snack. Unlike chalky, vitamin-y tasting power bars, they taste like real food and are easy to digest but best of all, they can also help boost milk supply! Good for mom and even better for baby, they’re perfect for those pinned-under-a-sleeping-baby-and-need-sustenance-now moments. There are a handful of flavors to choose from but the bright cashew lemon is our fave. (Each box contains a one-week supply with four balls in each sleeve.)

Yes, she can get a gown at the hospital, but as any mom who’s been there knows, they’re the opposite of comfy. They’re rough on sore nipples and with only ties at the back, you’re more exposed than not. Instead, this gown has buttons down the back for easy access with plenty of coverage. Buttons on the shoulders are perfect for breastfeeding and skin-to-skin access and it’s something she can keep using once she’s settled back in at home.

Honestly, who doesn’t love a good candle? Here for the Burn’s high-end mantra candles feature all kinds of fun sayings and can even be customized with your own special quote. Choose from one of their five signature scents which are all beautifully layered to suit a range of moods and preferences.

Appeal to her sense of style and pride in her new title with Ingrid & Isabel’s Insta-worthy denim jacket. There’s even an impossibly adorable “Babe” version to match.

What better way to honor and recognize her than with a piece of jewelry she’s guaranteed to treasure? A gorgeous Mama necklace is always a slam-dunk gift. We’ve rounded up some favorites here, including this heirloom solid gold version from Kinn.

Hospital essentials, but make them luxe and butter-soft. This dreamy box from the maternity wardrobe pros at Hatch will make her transition into motherhood feel comfy and luxurious with a pair of undies, robe and nightgown all made from organic bamboo. Top it off with cozy organic cotton socks and she’ll feel wrapped in love from head to toe.

Exhausted, cold brew loving mamas rejoice! This impressive, top-rated coffee maker will keep her fridge stocked with amazing iced coffee with practically zero effort.

If you love her, buy her this. If you love LOVE her, don’t even wrap it. Just slip it in her fridge and let her know it’s waiting for her. The cooling blend of herbs is a literal lifesaver when recovering from a vaginal birth.

Spare her the stress of being another mom with a bazillion photos in the cloud and zero IRL. This wireless mini printer connects via Bluetooth to any iOS or Android phone so she can instantly print her favorites. (Which will be all of them.)

If lugging over a frozen lasagne isn’t your style, you can still help keep her fed and nourished by signing her up for a meal delivery service. Of course there are tons out there these days, but one that we love for new mamas is Splendid Spoon. They’ve got a full menu of light plant-based meals like soups, noodle bowls and smoothies that require zero prep–just heat if needed and chow down. (Also, easy to eat one handed in most cases!) Literally everything we’ve tried is filling and delicious and getting in all our veggies by lunchtime is a huge plus!

(All the plans are delivered weekly and you can build your own menu.)

Who doesn’t love a massage? After giving birth, this could be one of the most refreshing gifts for a new mama. A Spa Finder gift card allows her to choose a local place she loves at date and time that works best for her (once she’s healed). Want to double down (and even sneak in some baby snuggles?) Offer to help take care of the baby during her spa time.

Cold or thrice-reheated coffee doesn’t have to be her new way of life. Packed with an app-enabled heating element, the Ember mug keeps hot beverages at exactly the temperature you tell it to long enough for you to drink it. Go ahead, earn yourself best gift giver ever status.

A rich, hydrating lip mask is the hospital bag MVP. One of our absolute favorites is the Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Mask which goes on nice and thick without being too sticky or gloppy and hydrates like a dream. We use it throughout the day to keep lips soft and supple but it really works its magic when you leave it on overnight.

Chances are, she’s spending a lot of time pinned under a sleeping or nursing baby. And while we’re sure she could stare at their perfect little face for hours on end, sometimes you’ve just gotta catch up on your programs. (Or Facetime with grandma.) For hands-free viewing, the flexible Lamicall Phone Holder attaches to most nightstands, headboards or tables so she can be as comfy as possible. It also doubles as a tripod for selfies with the new family celebrity.

Pregnancy and postpartum isn’t always easy on skin–and finding products that are safe and effective is no simple task either. That’s why we can’t say enough good things about this power-packed set of some of our absolute favorites from True Botanicals. Including four of their clinically-trialed, botanical formulas that help nourish, hydrate, and smooth the skin of new moms and moms-to-be, it takes the guesswork out of her skincare routine. There’s the luxe Ginger Turmeric Cleansing Balm to cleanse without stripping, Chebula Active Serum to hydrate and even tone, Renew Pure Radiance Oil to nourish and lock in moisture and the Phyto-Retinol Advanced Clinical Cream–a pregnancy-safe retinol alterntive– to smooth and even texture. Each one is like a little love letter to her face–from the natural grounding scents to the lovely textures–and packaged too beautifully to tuck in a cabinet. An absolutely gorgeous gift all the way around!

This isn’t your average stainless steel water bottle. Designed specifically for brand new breastfeeding moms, the Momjug has really thought of everything when it comes to fourth trimester hydrating. It’s equipped with a straw to make it easier to sip from any angle, a handle for secure holding, a breast indicator on the lid to keep feedings straight, a rubber base to ensure it doesn’t clang when being set down, and even a pacifier clip to keep binkies close at hand.

She needs coffee and she needs it now. Stock her freezer with the no-gadget necessary coffee pods from Cometeer and you’ve basically given her her very own barista. The flash-frozen pods deliver at-home coffee that’s as good (if not better) than a cafe and do it without any mess in just seconds. From hot coffee to fancy iced lattes, they’re a new mama’s BFF.

As a new mom, comfy bras and undies are a non-negotiable. This barely-there style from embrace–a brand that crushes the maternity-to-nursing capsule wardrobe–is so comfy she’ll no doubt wear it around the clock. It’s got all the bells and whistles of your typical nursing bra (nursing clips, removable pads, adjustable hooks, and a plush band and straps) all wrapped in super soft Austrian Micromodal and finished with the sweetest scallop trim. It’s basically perfect!

When you’re not leaving the house for days at a time, you want some soft slippers to move around the house in. And if you’re looking to treat her to the best of the best, the Olukai Ku’i Slippers are it, hands down. They’re made from genuine shearling which is arguably the coziest thing on the planet and manage to keep feet toasty without overheating. (It’s also antimicrobial which explains why I’ve worn mine almost daily for three years and they don’t smell. At all.) The footbed is comfy with a good amount of arch support and the non-slip sole is substantial enough to take them outside as well. I love mine so much that I really want a fresh new pair, but they’re still in such good shape I can’t rationalize it. Damn these well made products!

Oh, ho hum. Another candle. NOT SO FAST, MY FRIEND. This glass-jarred beauty from London-based Noem Wellbeing is not your average candle. Made with baobab, jojoba, rapeseed, soybean, sweet almond and cocoa seed butter oils as well as a gorgeous blend of natural essential oils, it’s actually a soothing skin treatment that’s pure bliss. Simply light it up, wait a bit and drizzle the warmed oil over any part of the body that needs a little bit of nourishing. From the sensation to the dreamy scent, it’s the perfect way to prep for a good night’s sleep. After all, life’s too short to not be pampered with hot oil as frequently as possible.

From labor to breastfeeding to the regular morning grind, we can’t think of a better outfit than the Everyday Robe from Copper Pearl. Made from the same stretchy, buttery soft fabric as their swaddles, it’s incredibly comfy and, equally important, gentle against baby’s skin. An internal tie allows it to accommodate a growing bump, while details like shorter sleeves that don’t get in the way during diaper changes or bottle assembly and pockets that are perfect for spare pacifiers make it ideal for postpartum mamas as well. Choose from 41 colors and patterns which coordinate with pieces for her little one too!

If you’d rather leave the gift giving to the pros, Nurtured 9 has got you covered. Curated especially for new moms, their luxe gift boxes are filled with natural and non-toxic products from brands you know and love that pamper in every way. Choose from well-crafted themes like Replenish and Restore, C-Section Recovery or Lounge and Unwind and rest assured she’ll be smitten with every single thing in the box.

Prices vary.

These beautifully bound guided journals from Promptly are a great gift for the mama who wants to chronicle all of the important motherhood moments but doesn’t think she has the time. Each journal is filled with short, easy prompts, making it easy to document all the little moments she’ll never want to forget.

For the dry mamas in the house, there’s no reason Happy Hour has to be boring. In fact, there’s a world of possibility these days with zero-proof spirits and mixers. Not sure where to start? The classy kits from Raising the Bar are just the answer. Each month they’ll send a deliciously curated box that includes everything she’ll need to craft a memorable mocktail and over time, build an impressive alcohol-free bar cart that rivals any speakeasy.
