Gifts for New Moms Who Already Have It All!

Maternity leave feels like a second job, with all the checking, double checking and triple checking that needs to be done before you go back to work. There are so many things to remember: childcare arrangements, contracts for clients (if you’re self-employed), figuring out who’s picking up the kids from school on Wednesday and Thursday. it’s exhausting! As a result, new mothers might feel like they don’t need any more presents – particularly when they probably don’t have time to open them.

A Good Digital Scrapbooking Kit

New mums have plenty of time to reflect on their child’s first year of life, but they’re often not in a position to put that reflection into practice. With a digital scrapbooking kit, you offer the gift of time travel. You give her a chance to remember her child’s first steps, first words, first everything as it happens. You also add to her skillset. Digital scrapbooking is a new and exciting skill that can be applied to her child’s future school assignments or art projects.

A Colour-coded Calendar

New mums need to stay on top of their lives even more than they did when they were working. And unfortunately, most people don’t have an assistant to help them organize their schedule. A colour-coded calendar can help you stay on top of your schedule. Mark down when you need to get your child to the doctor, when you need to pick up your partner’s dry cleaning, and when the family is having dinner.

If you’re giving the gift to someone who has a child with special needs, colour-coding can also help keep track of the child’s medications and appointments.

An Organizer for the Childcare Provider

Wrapping Up: The Final Word

New mums often get the impression that they’ve reached the finish line of their pregnancy and the next baby is just lying in wait to be born. Pregnancy is a marathon, not a sprint, and it may be a long time before your friend gets to go through it again. While she’ll be glad to have the help, you don’t want to pass off your own baby duties to her – but it’s a good opportunity to be a friend and help her out.
