33 Best First Mother’s Day Gifts to Spoil Her This Holiday

If there’s one thing that any new mom has in common is that she’ll need to keep her hands free when it comes time to focusing on her little one, and all the first timers in our network rated fanny packs high on their list of essentials. Treat her to a designer option that she wouldn’t necessarily splurge on for herself. We love that it’s not only roomy, but it can be worn as a crossbody too, or attached to the stroller

She unlocked a new chapter: the one where she gets to twin with her little bestie. And there’s no better place to get mommy-and-me ’fit, whether family jammies or matching outfits like sundresses, than at Hanna Andersson.

Whether she’s a newly minted boy mom or girl mom, there’s a beaded bracelet for that. The gold-tone plate, crystal, and acrylic necklace may be budget-friendly (just $25), but it’s the kind of thing you’ll find her wearing every day.

This DIY gift will help the new mama memorialize those tiny fingers and toes. The kit comes with everything she needs to create clay prints, plus a frame for displaying the keepsake.

A dainty set of gold huggies is always a good idea—especially ones with a heart design to express your love and adoration.

Real talk: As a new mom, I basically lived in a robe just like this one. It’s sleek, comfy, and easy to throw on when you get an unexpected visitor.

If there’s ever a Mother’s Day to spoil her with some bling, it’s her first go at motherhood. This pavé diamond park will shine as the star of her everyday wardrobe.

A busy mom needs her coffee, and there’s no better mug than this one. It keeps her brew hot for hours on end, so she won’t have to do that whole microwave-over-and-over thing. But the real draw here? The mug is entirely leakproof. Mine—a daily go-to—has gone flying across my car and turned upside down in my handbag, and not a single drop has ever spilled.

She may already have a diaper bag, but chances are she doesn’t have one this luxe. So consider the holiday the perfect time to give her an upgrade. This one is a backpack style to keep her hands free, has enviable organization, is water-resistant, and even comes with a removable mesh changing mat and a washable zippered bag.

The oldest child is lucky, because a lot of new moms still have the time and energy to devote to something like a baby book. This one makes things easy, with all kinds of prompts for mom to fill in about that very special baby and their first five years.

Fill this custom photo book with photos from the past year—pregnancy, birth, and the early months—for a gift that’s sure to elicit a few happy tears.

When I was breastfeeding, I simply couldn’t get enough water. If the new mom in your life is in a similar stage, the world’s most beloved tumbler is a solid choice, especially in this new and trendy neon colorway.

We’re willing to bet her camera roll has absolutely exploded since baby was born. This pocket-size photo will help her bring some of her favorites IRL for framing.

A unique gift for both mom and baby, this custom book makes the perfect addition to the family’s library. Personalize it with Mom’s name and the names and characters for up to four children.

During that postpartum period, I spent as much time on my feet as I did snuggly with my newborn on the couch. In addition to the obvious warmth they provide, a solid pair of slippers, like this cushioned fleece pair, is key to preventing sore feet.

It’s no secret that new parents get a very limited amount of sleep, but this gently weighted eye mask—a Glamour-editor favorite—can help her maximize the time she does get.

A splurge? Sure, but one that any new mom is going to be very, very excited about. These trending LED devices require only 10 minutes, but deliver a relaxing experience with tangible skin-care benefits, like reduced wrinkles and a brighter complexion.

With limited sleep often comes the dreaded morning puff, but this beauty tool can help save the day. The stay-cool stainless steel orb delivers an at-home cryo-facial massage that increases circulation to instantly improve puff, brighten, and soothe.

Grab the best-selling monogram mug in a version that calls attention to her new favorite title: Mom.

The ideal layering piece comes with a subtle nod to her bundle of joy, as it comes stamped with baby’s initial. The 16-inch necklace may come at a moderate price point, but it’s nothing but high-quality: made in the USA out of 14-karat-gold plate and 14-karat-gold fill.

One thing new mothers do a lot of? Wash their hands. This pretty little thing is the perfect sink-side vessel to keep her rings safe in the process.

As she begins her motherhood journey, you can help her make the most of family time with a book packed with activity prompts, plus a space to jot down memories and paste special photos.

We know absolutely nobody who would complain about getting a regular flower delivery. This set-it-and-forget-it gift is the Mother’s Day gift that keeps on giving.

It’s an old joke that moms rarely are seen in photos, which makes a hand-drawn portrait of mom and child (proof of mom!) extra special. Choose framed or unframed wall art—though we recommend the former, so she doesn’t have any work to do before hanging the piece.

Chances are Mom’s not making it out of the house for regular massages but is holding a lot of tension in her shoulders from carrying a new baby around all day. This at-home massager, complete with eight kneading massage nodes and heat, is a real treat at the end of a long day.

If Mom’s anything like me, she’s probably coveting baby’s sound machine. Thankfully, one of the most popular manufacturers makes an adult version complete with white, pink, and brown noise as well as a dimmable night light, a sunrise alarm clock that her natural circadian rhythm (not that she needs that at the moment!), and even downloadable guided meditations (now, that’s something she could probably use!).

When you’re a postpartum mom, it’s easy to get lost in your head. Unfortunately, most new parents don’t have a ton of time to devote to practices like meditation or journaling. And that’s precisely why we love this journal so much. It’s packed with prompts that can help her sort her thoughts (plus preserve core memories) in just five minutes each day.

Notice a common theme here? Time is limited. But if Mom can’t stand the thought of leaving the house without her hair in place, this beauty buy is a must. It’s a powerful hair dryer and a styling brush all in one to significantly cut prep time.

If there was ever a time to upgrade her coffee machine, it’s now. We like this one, because it churns out both espresso and coffee in hot and cold options and a variety of different sizes. It’s sleek and space-saving too.

After my first child was born, I rocked a necklace with his name on it loud and proud. It’s a classic gift for a new mom, and this one is available in three different metals to suit her preference: sterling silver, rose gold, or gold.
