A mom’s first Mothers Day is special. It is the first time she gets to be celebrated for being a mother. Mothers Day gifts for new moms are not quite the same as gifts for seasoned moms. Mostly, that is because new moms have very different needs than someone who has been a mom for a while. If there is a new mom in your life, here is a mix of functional gift ideas as well as some gorgeous Mothers Day gifts for new moms that will make her first Mothers Day special.

Stylish and classic, the Boxy Backpack from Petunia Pickle Bottom is designed for the modern mother. Featuring a zip-out changing station, removable changing pad, and plenty of pockets for diapers and wipes, this bag is literally a mom’s on-the-go command center. With included stroller straps, a wide-open and spacious interior, 2 exterior bottle pockets, and an easy-to-clean interior and exterior, this is the only bag mom will ever need. Beautiful gold hardware, and metal feet for keeping it clean, make this bag both practical and pretty to carry.
