Gifts For New Mums After Birth

Has one of your family members or friends had a new baby?

A truly magical time that you will want to celebrate; there are so many gift ideas for new mums online, so how do you know which one to pick for your loved one?

Whether you are looking for unique gifts, practical gifts, or gifts that the new mum will treasure forever, there is something for everyone in the below gift guide for new mums.

Memory books

A truly thoughtful gift that new mums (and dads) will greatly appreciate, a memory book is designed to be filled with photographs of all a baby’s first milestones, such as pictures from the birth itself, the first time they crawl, the first time they smile and their first birthday.

You can find memory books for boys and memory books for girls, with a wide variety of stylish designs to choose from.

Soft toys

If you are looking for a gift that is more for the baby than the mum, then soft toys are always warmly received. The perfect gift for a newborn and a great addition to any nursery, our Jellycat soft toys are luxuriously soft and come in a large selection of different animals and shapes.

Most Jellycat baby gifts are suitable from birth, making them good baby shower gifts also.

A baby monitor

If you would like to give a more practical gift, then a baby monitor is a good choice. Something that most new mums need, this gift is ideal for giving at a baby shower but can also be given straight after the birth.

You can find baby monitors to suit most price ranges. Just make sure you pick one that comes with a good warranty.

A keepsake box

A personalised gift that really shows you care, the beauty of a keepsake box, much the same as a memory book, is that the new mum can keep adding to it as the years go by.

One of the most popular gift ideas for a new mum, a keepsake box can be filled with photos, as well as keepsakes such as the baby’s first dummy, lock of hair, and first lost tooth.

A new mums hamper

No mum is ever going to turn down a new mum and baby hamper. Designed to make the life of a new mum easier, there are lots of different things that you can add, such as nappies, new mum shower gels and body creams, a personalised baby bottle, a gift card for a massage, and anything else that you think your friend or family member would benefit from and enjoy. You can find more ideas for gifts for her here.

Don’t forget that new dads need a little treat too, so why not add in a few bits for them, too, such as a beard kit or men’s face cream?
