Gifts for Newborn Baby Girl and Mom

Becoming a mother is a selfless, exhausting and extremely rewarding moment in a woman's life—so we're of the belief that new moms deserve something sweet to help them start their journey. Sure, you can give that first-time mama a regular ol' onesie or bib, but the best gifts for new moms are carefully crafted, beautifully packaged and uber-practical for helping her navigate this new chapter in life.

The arrival of a new baby is thrilling for everyone, so it's understandable why so many gift ideas for new moms involve adorable items for the baby. But often, the best gifts for new moms are ones that are exclusively for her. And gifts for new moms that aren't for the baby shouldn't just be rolled out once a year for Mother's Day. Whether you're shopping for a gift for a pregnant friend, a push present for your partner or a holiday gift for a newly minted mom, there are plenty of options to suit every kind of celebration.

Whatever the occasion, a first-time mom gift is a great way to celebrate and pamper her. Plus, it's a reminder that looking after herself is just as important as looking after her little one. After all, happy mama, happy baby. Not sure where to look? We've done the legwork for you and rounded up our favorite gifts for new moms.
