The 25 Best Gifts for Pregnant Women
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
The best gifts for pregnant women no doubt vary. Each expectant mother's journey is unique, though many common joys and nuisances are shared. For me, pampering services like prenatal massages and facials rank the highest, as do sentimental jewelry gifts to honor my precious babies.
With the body changing to support the womb, any mama-to-be will be navigating physical, emotional, and mental changes that begin her profound shift into motherhood. Whether your giftee is a first-time mom or she's done this before (which makes another pregnancy all the more trying, as I'm now learning in my second trimester with a toddler on my hands), pamper your pregnant pal with gifts that will bring a sparkle to her trimesters and ease the discomfort of a growing belly.
Hydration, sleep, and skin changes are frequent concerns, so I picked a few practical presents, like beauty and wellness products, along with chic maternity clothes, from dresses to leggings and supportive activewear, that'll keep her stylish and comfortable.
If you'd rather spoil her with something simply beautiful, like a cozy pair of clogs or a beautiful cotton pajama set that'll keep her feeling like herself, I have gift ideas for that, too. From smaller items and newborn essentials you can bundle into an elegant gift basket, to jewelry she'll treasure forever (my necklaces, bracelets, and ring stacks are filled with meaningful odes to my daughters), future moms will not be disappointed. Ahead, 25 gift ideas for the pregnant woman in your life.
Pima Maternity Long-Long Set
Lake's best-selling Pima cotton pajamas are cult-loved, and this new-season beige stripe style is the ultimate gift for expecting mothers who favor neutrals. More than soft to the touch and comforting, the snap buttons make nursing or pumping a breeze once her newborn arrives.

ashleyzhangjewelry.comCloudSoft Adjustable Maternity Pillow
Between aching hips, a sore back, and a growing belly, any mom-to-be could use the extra support of a pregnancy pillow for a good night's sleep, naps, or lounging on the couch. This ergonomic design features a memory foam and microfiber fill, a silky bamboo cover, and a removable arm to support whatever position you like, which is key, as I've found several pregnancy pillows to be quite cumbersome and difficult to move when changing positions. You can even separate it entirely and use it as a travel-friendly body pillow.

Buttery soft sheets have gone a long way for my improving sleep while carrying my second child (I also splurged on an entirely new king bed, comforter, and duvet set—but that’s neither here nor there), and Boll & Branch's signature set is my absolute favorite—oh, and how good is this new cream color?
