Nourished skin
A mother’s body goes through a lot of changes through pregnancy between skin expansion & contraction, hormones, and mineral depletion, leaving it in need of major TLC. Veriphy Skincare offers a clean solution for thirsty skin in need of support. The woman-owned brand uses science-backed STEM-B research to offer cruelty-free, proof-based natural skincare products that help with dehydration, dullness, aging, hyperpigmentation, redness, and even oily skin & acne! P.S. They also offer scholarships for women pursuing STEM!
Comfortable clothes
Comfortable nursing clothes that make you look and feel good do exist! Meet the Simple Wishes Noor Nursing Jumpsuit. It’s silky soft, has pockets, and makes feeding the baby or pumping incredibly easy. This is a must-get gift for any nursing mom.
Healing gesture
Postpartum mamas need a lot of healing and support, not just in the first 40 days, but in the years afterward. (Amazon affiliate) SoulKu offers a wide variety of meaningful North Carolina mama-made gemstone necklaces in eco-conscious packaging to inspire things like healing, inner peace, stress relief, or calm in motherhood. Each necklace is made with motherhood in mind, too — it’s made with a strong nylon cord that won’t easily break from a little one tugging on it!
Hydration reminder
Staying hydrated is extremely important for postpartum & breastfeeding parents, so why not gift a water bottle that will remind mom to stay hydrated?! Bonus — If she’s still expecting, Mewl’s water bottle doubles as a pregnancy milestone water bottle!
Hands-free cuddles
This comforting ring sling can be worn around a mama’s belly for extra support during pregnancy, used as a comfort measure during labor, or worn as a baby carrier by either parent (its primary use) to provide a womb-like feel for the newborn after birth (and it can count as a version of tummy time). A Hope & Plum ring sling is a must for hands-free time, especially if the parent-to-be is a first-time parent who hasn’t learned how attached their newborn will be yet (this will save their sanity).
