35 Gifts for New Moms That Will Definitely Make Them Feel Loved

Finding the perfect gift for your friends and family can be a stressful endeavor at the best of times, but we pride ourselves on being quite the experts at gift giving. (We've curated countless guides here on the site, from the guide on shopping for Gen Zers to the luxury gifts on our wish lists.)

Today, I'm focusing our attention on the best gifts for new moms. As you can guess, anything that encourages comfort and relaxation is a great option, as sleep is not something new parents get a great deal of throughout the first year. My sister is a new mom and picky about gifts, so I asked for her intel on the best gifts to get no matter the occasion. Items like diaper bags, strollers, and baby clothing were probably already checked off on the baby shower registry, so this is the time to get creative and thoughtful. 

 Ahead, enjoy my roundup of the 30 best gifts for new parents, from the elegant and quirky to the relaxation-centric. Three of my close friends are pregnant, and three are new moms, so I'll certainly be shopping this list myself.
