The Best Mother’s Day Gifts for New Mums in 2022
This is a collaborative post
Is your loved one celebrating their very first mother’s day this year? Whether pregnant or recently a new mum, this is an exciting milestone in their lives. But what to buy to mark the occasion? Here we give you some tips on what makes a great gift for new mums, and some of our favourites in 2022.
What makes a good gift for new mums?
When it comes to buying a gift that new mums will appreciate and actually use there are a few things to think about. Consider buying:
- Something luxe: Make new mums feel special with a gorgeous silk bathrobe or scented candle.
- Something practical: From a nappy bag or maternity pads- they’re needed and practical!
- Something comfy: New mums will love a pair of button up pjs to relax in.
- Something soothing: Childbirth can take its toll on the body. Get her some cooling pads or something to help her body heal.
Check if they have a gift registry
Many expecting mums create a Gift Registry full of the things they need for the arrival of their baby. It’s a great idea to check if your friend or loved one has a registry to get them something they really want. If you’re an expecting mum reading this, take advantage of creating a registry if you haven’t already done so. Save yourself the hassle of replying to tons of messages, or get the first foot by actively curating a list of all the things you really need for yourself and the baby.

Their Warrior Plunge Bras come in black or white and go up to a size 16DD. They’re embellished with sexy soft lace and are ultra adjustable if you’re breastfeeding. A beautiful bra for new mums is a great way to make them feel a little more like themselves even on days where they haven’t showered or had a chance to wash their hair!

New mums will be spending a lot of time at home at least in the early days. Help them feel comfy and put together with a gorgeous pyjama set from Maeva. Designed for days off and nights in, Maeva pyjamas are super comfortable to wear thanks to being made from premium woven cotton. We love the elastic waistband and button down top which is practical and comfortable all at once..

The Motherhood by Jamila Rizvi
A book is always a great idea. We love The Motherhood – a collection of letters from Australian women to themselves about things they wish they had known before their babies arrived. Some of the writers include Zoe Foster Blake, Clare Bowditch, Clementine Ford and Monty Diamond. The stories told by these beautiful writers from diverse backgrounds can work as a salve, building the bonds of shared experience and helping to develop a deep sense of connection and community.
Features of The Motherhood:
- Collection of letters from Australian women
- Beautiful read to prepare for your new arrival
