Gift 1
For the new mom that is nursing, you can get her homemade lactation cookies. An amazing Mama makes lactation cookies filled with nutrients that are able to help increase milk supply. They are delicious and she is able to modify them to fit various allergen needs. If you live in Orange County, CA like I do, you can even arrange to pick up frozen cookie dough so you can bake them as you like. For everyone else, Vital Bites is able to ship them to the new mom you are wanting to gift them to!
Here’s the best part… I have a discount code for you! If you give her the code Lalatomama she will give you 10% off your order! When I was breastfeeding, I had a steady stash of these. It was the perfect breakfast because it was packed with nutrients and it was quick and easy. They also pair great with coffee. Who doesn’t want to eat a cookie for breakfast? My post about All Things Breastfeeding talks more about them.

Gift 2
How about a beautiful piece of handmade jewelry for the new mom? MaddyNbella offers affordable handmade pieces that you can personalize. If you know the baby’s name this would be the absolute sweetest gift. Courtney is the owner of MaddyNbella jewelry and she is the mom of 4 amazing children. She creates each piece of jewelry by hand and with love.
These gifts would be great for a mom, friend, sister, co-worker, grandma or even yourself! I love gifts that are personalized because they mean so much more than just buying something from a store. MaddyNbella Jewelry collection has lots of options to choose from! Courtney is even offering 15% off for my readers if you use the code LalatoMama!

Gift 3
I was recently gifted with the Posh Peanut crib sheet and OMG! This is the softest silkiest crib sheet I have ever felt! They mostly have adorable floral patterns but they just released one with dinosaurs on it that I received. It comes in a little drawstring gift bag made out of the same material. This is a high-quality and unique gift! They also have some amazing other products like the ones listed below that I can’t wait to try out. My son loves his new dinosaur sheets and it looks great in his room!



An old roommate from college gifted me a quilt in the theme of my son’s room. I loved it and he loves it too.
I liked the gift idea you had about jewelry with the baby’s name as a gift. I’ve been wanting to get my sister something nice as a gift after she had her daughter last week. Maybe I should head to a jewelry store and get something for her and her daughter when her daughter is older.
I love the dinosaur pattern on this crib sheet! Definitely keeping this in mind for the next baby shower I’m invited to. Thanks for the baby gift ideas.
Thank you for this ideas Laura, I will definitely use some of it.
great list! I love the crib sheet especially!
LOVE these ideas! I have a friend who is due in August and I will look into adding these items to her gift. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I just ordered some items from Posh Peanut! That’s a great idea for a newbie gift!
Awesome! You will love the items!!
I’ve never heard of the Gigi blankets, but what a great idea! I love companies that give back. The best gift I received as a new mom was a week’s worth of groceries, dropped off at our house by my brother. Since then, I’ve tried to pass it on and buy groceries for friends whenever they have a new baby!
Such an awesome list. I love that crib sheet. Its so pretty.
