If your friend or loved one has just given birth, it’s time to shower her with gifts that go beyond the typical baby dummies and nappy rash cream. We’ve compiled a list of 10 gifts that will not only make her laugh, but also make her feel like she might just survive this whole “new mum” thing. Spoiler: there will be snacks and she might also finally get some sleep!
Haakaa Manual Breast Pump – Breastfeeding is a beautiful thing, until you realize you’re leaking milk like a broken tap…Eeewww.
Enter the Haakaa pump, a simple, hands-free breast pump that’ll save every precious drop. She’ll soon be toting this thing around like a tiny milk vacuum, and maybe, just maybe, she’ll stop blaming the baby for the wet spots on her shirt.
Great for the new mum that is pretty sure her body is now a 24/7 milk machine.
Healthy Coffee Pack – Remember when coffee was optional? Yeah, new mums don’t.
This coffee pack is a lifesaver for a mum who’s running on about 1.5 hours of sleep and pure adrenaline.
She might not be able to drink much coffee whilst breastfeeding but this coffee is packed full of vitamins, minerals and fibre, going the extra mile to help her feel good.
After a cup she will at least be fuelled enough to find where the baby hid her keys (again).
Adult colouring book – Mumlife –
Because colouring inside the lines is easier than keeping a new born baby calm.

Pair it with some fancy markers, and she might actually get five minutes of peace. Maybe…
