With Mother’s Day right around the corner, it’s important to remember that this one is a once-in-a-lifetime event — it’s her first Mother’s Day as a mom!

How to Shop for the Best Gifts for New Moms

Before you start shopping, it’s important to realize that your gift has already been topped. One particularly precious gift has claimed the spot of best gift of 2019 (ahem, baby), so when shopping for a new mom, there are a handful of routes you can go. Here are three tips on how to shop for the best gifts for new moms.

Think sentimental. This Mother’s Day is a special one, so help commemorate it by thinking with your heart. From jewelry to personalized trinkets, gifting a new mom something that will always remind her of her first Mother’s Day is never a bad idea. 

Think helpful. Remember how we said to think with your heart? Well, now it’s time to think with your head. If something sentimental is not your speed, go for something she’ll actually use. Whether it’s for her or for baby, a gift you know she can put to good use, like a stroller or gift card, is always a great way to go. 

Think relaxing. When all else fails, go for something that’ll help mama unwind. Whether it’s a gift certificate to a spa or some self-indulgent skincare, the gift of relaxation should never be underestimated.
