8 Great Gifts for New Moms

Don't you think Mom deserves a little something after all that hard work and so much more to come?

Don't worry Dads... I've got a list in the works for you too!

1. Keep your little one close to your heart with this simple gold Kate Spade Locket.

I know, it's technically a bridesmaid gift according to the name, but I just love the simplicity, size, and price!

2. Starbucks gift cards make great gifts for any occasion... especially for new sleep deprived mommas.

and dads too.

3. Help Mom stock up on baby books with a Barnes and Noble Gift Card.

Best advice I have received so far, read to baby everyday!

4. While on maternity leave, force Mom out of her jammies and into something chic but still comfy like this Cocoon Sweater from Anthropologie.

5. Get her a house cleaning gift certificate, you'll definitely score best gift ever points!

6. I absolutely love my iPad! Being able to facetime with my friends and their new babies is a great way to have some adult interaction! Plus, it's perfect for parent mag subscriptions, which also make great gifts.

7. Cozy slippers from Minnetonka are grocery store appropriate for those "Oh S!#T I'm out of diapers" moments.

8. My recent purchase... the best baby book, EVER! 

Tessera Publishing memory books have tons of pages with prompts to keep track of baby's first year and beyond!
I can't wait to get started, but first I'll need a nice scrap booking pen... good thing I know just the person to call! Maybe this will get me motivated to do our wedding book too :)



I'd love to hear about the best gift you received as a new mom!
