Personally, I can’t think of a better time of year to be postpartum than during the holiday season.
Snuggling a newborn under the holiday lights while indulging in sweet treats and enjoying the snow falling outside and the sound of a cozy fire (well, assuming postpartum hormones aren’t causing you to sweat — more on that later) is the ideal way to usher in a new season of parenthood.
If you know someone who will be enjoying all those postpartum holiday snuggles, and you’re searching for the perfect gift to congratulate them, we’re here to help.
Aside from the gifts of sleep and food (always choose food), we rounded up some of the best gifts to give a postpartum mom.
Bonus: they’re on sale for Black Friday!
Momcozy Ergowrap Postpartum Belly Wrap
$63.99
from
Momcozy.com
This is the ultimate gift of postpartum comfort and recovery for both C-scetion and vaginal birth moms: The Momcozy Ergowrap Postpartum Belly Wrap is a thoughtful present for new moms — and right now, the Momcozy belly wrap is 20% off (the price is reflected above)! The hospital-grade belly band has Momcozy’s signature Ergonest Support Structure™, which relieves back pain caused by weakened core muscles, baby holding, and breastfeeding. With its 3D lifting structure, it gently compresses the belly to aid diastasis recti recovery and help the uterus return to its natural position. Unlike other wraps on the market, the Momcozy postpartum belly band is made from breathable fabric with a nearly invisible design, making it perfect for anytime, whether at home during recovery time or out and about later on. Available in petite and standard sizes, the Momcozy Ergowrap Postpartum Belly Wrap is designed to fit any mom, any body, and ease her back to herself.
Mila’s Keeper Breast Milk Cooler
$70
from
Mila's Keepers
Move aside, plastic breast milk bags, because these milk coolers are an incredibly stylish (and practical) upgrade. This insulated milk cooler keeps breast milk safe for up to 20 hours and includes storage bottles that can be used for pumping directly, storing, and even feeding.
An ice pack is also included in the set for on-the-go pumping and storage. Shop sitewide BOGO sales up to 40% off on all in-stock items (pre-orders excluded) from November 24 to November 30.
EverGrace Ultra Soft Luxury Throw Blanket
Having a newborn is all about the cuddle time, and what better way to celebrate all that cuddle time than with a brand-new ultra-soft blanket that promises all the cozy snuggles?
We love the bubble faux fur detailing and the four different colors to choose from. Plus, it’s machine-washable for the inevitable bumps and spills of life with a newborn.
Mineral Fusion 3-in-1 Color Stick
The words ‘three-in-one’ makeup can be music to any postpartum mom’s ears. Not only is the subtle shimmer of this non-toxic color stick so pretty, but it’s a multi-use product that can be used to add color to cheeks, lips, and eyes.
All Mineral Fusion products are hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, fragrance-free free and made without parabens, talc, or phthalates.
Owala FreeSip and Sway, Holiday Collection
Hydration is key for any postpartum mother, especially anyone who is breastfeeding or pumping. But all postpartum moms need hydration to help their bodies heal and recover. What better way to hydrate than with a beautiful holiday Owala that comes complete with an easy-carry handle?
I love the easy grab-and-go design of the Free Sip and Sway, which would make it convenient to throw the water bottle in a diaper bag, stroller, or just carry from room to room with one hand. And look for 30% off sitewide Black Friday sales, starting November 26.
Cozyla Calendar
If the newly postpartum mom in your life is running a busy household, the gift of organization may be the most thoughtful one you could give. The Cozyla AI-powered digital calendar is a family command center that lets busy moms offload tasks like meal planning, scheduling, and calendar organization. (I love the ability to take pictures of invites or sports calendars and have it inputted!)
The different-sized calendars, ranging from 15.6″ up to the popular 32″, are all on sale for Black Friday, with savings up to $165.
Revo Face Genie
No one is more in desperate need of self-care while also desperately short on time than a postpartum mother, which is why the Reno tool, which promises a 10-minute facial, is the ideal gift.
The Face Genie combines three medical-grade LED light modes with stem-cell collagen jelly to lift, brighten, and clarify skin. The facial tool promises to improve skin concerns from acne to fine lines to tired, puffy, undereyes (the signature look of any sleep-deprived mom).
It looks simple and straightforward to use, which makes it a treat for tired moms, and not just another chore they feel they have to do to keep up.
Munchkin Milkmakers Lactation Cookie Bites
Listen, I’m going to level with you here: You do not even have to be postpartum to enjoy these cookies, but if you happen to be looking for a way to try to help boost your milk supply, they are a delicious way to make that happen.
I bought these cookies by the box, and they’re the perfect postpartum treat, breastfeeding or not.
Minimalist Baby Memory Book
$28.99
from
JossLacDesign/Etsy
Asking a freshly postpartum parent to fill out a giant baby book just feels cruel, but as a mom who is well past the baby stage, I will admit that some of my most cherished possessions are the memories I did manage to write down for my kids.
This minimalist baby memory book is a great compromise: it’s simple enough not to be overwhelming and contains prompts and blank pages to help exhausted parents capture those precious memories they will appreciate in the future.
Olive and June Winter Gel System
$140
from
Olive and June
Getting your nails done can make you feel like a whole new woman, but postpartum moms may not have the time or money to hit the nail salon. The Olive and June gel system provides everything you need to get a holiday mani at home. For Black Friday, you can use the code SALE25 for 25% off savings.

Bombas Women's Sunday Slippers
How cute and comfy are these slippers? I can clearly picture how perfect a Sunday afternoon would be, donning these with a baby in your arms as you settle in on the couch for a cuddle session.
They also come in other sizes and six color choices.
Kindred Bravely Waffle Maternity & Nursing Lounge Set
$49.99
from
Kindred Bravely
One of the things that most shocked me about being postpartum was how gosh darn sweaty I was. I know now that leaking copious amounts of fluid from your entire body is pretty normal in postpartum, but at the time, I would have given anything for comfortable, sweat-wicking pajamas that I could actually feel cute in.
And that’s exactly what this pair is — plus, they add a festive feel to your holidays with tree prints or pretty burgundy and pink colors.
