I am one of those people who LOVED being pregnant – I blogged about both of my pregnancies, proudly took pictures of my belly each month with those cute Etsy stickers, and feeling those little kicks and experiencing those months of excitement and anticipation, well – I am at a loss for words at how special it was! I also loved researching and finding baby products and could easily spend all my time shopping for baby products and now I love to share what I learned!
When I find out one of my friends is going to have a baby, I am always SO excited and immediately start ordering my go-to gifts for a soon-to-be new mama. Today I’m sharing my top tried and true picks with you! Whether you are expecting yourself or looking to give an awesome gift, I hope you love these fabulous pregnancy gifts for the mama-to-be as much as I do 🙂
Milk Snob Carseat/Nursing Cover
Quite possibly my favorite baby product ever and such a fun pregnancy gift – Milk Snob (they were on Shark Tank!) is an awesome company featuring 5-in-1 covers (they come in the CUTEST prints).
I especially loved using mine as a carseat cover – since there are SO many designs, I usually send the website link to my friends and make them pick their own design but below are some of my favorites!
SwaddleMe Swaddles
I have tried literally every swaddle out there – I probably had 30 different swaddles from 10 different brands at one point and kept coming back to these.
The velcro is CLUTCH – especially for middle of the night feedings and diaper changes, it makes helping baby get all cozy again super easy. Lots of designs to choose from too! (My next favorite swaddles can be found here, and here).
Happiest Baby on the Block Book
This book is uh-mazing and a wonderful pregnancy gift. Reading this while pregnant made me feel more prepared for what newborns really need and many of my friends and their partners agree.
It is an easy read and has very specific and useful tips for how to calm a crying baby and to make those first three months extra special for everyone!

Honest Organic Belly Balm
Self-care is important in every season of life and pregnancy is no exception! I tried a few different belly balms and this one was the winner 🙂

Skip Hop Diaper Bag
I have tried several different diaper bags and I will only buy Skip Hop now! They are just so dang good – cute on the outside, but crazy roomy on the inside.
There are several different options that have carried me from newborn time, to 2 under 2 in diapers, to potty training, to pre-school. This makes a great gift but if you aren’t sure which one is the right fit, a gift card is always a safe bet.
I’ve included my personal favorite for a brand new mom below!
