Best Gifts For New Moms & Moms-to-Be


A baby is the ultimate gift, but these things are fun too.

Whether it be your wife, sister, bestie, (or even yourself) it can be hard to come up with the perfect gift for a new or soon-to-be mama. While it is easy to shower the little one with gifts, mom deserves to get spoiled too. With late night feedings and endless diaper changes, they are due for some relaxation and self-care.

The best gift for a new mum is whatever will make her job a tad easier. Below are a few things she can pamper herself with.

1. Lingua Franca Mama Knows Best Sweater:

From the woman-owned company, Lingua Franca, this 100% cashmere sweater is a dream. ‘Mama Knows Best’ is handstitched and meant to mimic the designer’s handwriting. These sweaters can also come with other fun sayings – such as “Here comes the sun”, “Who run the world?”, and “What would Dolly do?”
