What do you get a woman post birth? Family members coming up on giving birth here, in the next two or three months. She used to be really into makeup- I’m thinking a spa day but, I don’t want her to worry about the baby.

don’t get a gift card—they’ll put it somewhere and get too caught up in being a mom that they won’t go. Make an experience like a spa day or seeing a show, or just come over and help do laundry and do dishes for them so mom can be with the baby. diapers are always a great gift and so are skincare items for post partum moms—like moisturizer or simple things.

Spa day sounds like a great gift, you can ask her ahead of time if she’d be comfortable with you taking her out and leaving the baby in the care of her partner/trusted family member or you could get her a gift card for one

From someone who’s has multiple cousins in the last few months, see what types of food they like and meal prep it for them! It’ll help in the long run as it’ll help keep the new parents from having to worry about cooking. Another great way to help the new mom, is to offer to occasionally step in and help clean the floors and counters!
