This Mother’s Day make the new mom in your life feel extra special!  She not only has a new baby but has been pregnant for the past nine months and is probably ready to be herself again!  Mother’s Day is a big deal for a new mom!

 

A gift certificate to her favorite salon is a great gift.  As you get back to your pre-baby self it is nice to have a fresh hairstyle and even color.

 

The new mom in your life may like a massage to ease the stress of sleepless nights, feedings and diaper changes. It’s an hour to herself to relax.

 

Give the new mom a manicure and pedicure.  This is a relaxing gift that is less expensive but still very enjoyable and gives her an opportunity to get out of the house.

 

A portrait session for mom and baby is a gift that will last forever. These photographs capture new mom and baby as they bond. Little hands and feet seem to be frozen in time.

 

If the new mom likes to scrapbook, a great gift is scrapbook supplies to help her capture the memories as she begins the journey of motherhood.

 

A new mom may not have a set routine with her new bundle of joy.  Late night feedings and caring for the new baby may have her exhausted.  Hire a maid service to do a weekly cleaning for one month or offer to do the cleaning yourself.

 

Babysit!  Give your new mom a night out!  It can be a girl’s night out or a date night.  She may hesitate but will definitely thank you later!

 

Use one of these gift ideas to show the new mom in your life just how special she is!
