The perfect holiday gifts for the breastfeeding mom

If you’re dashing to get gifts wrapped and under the tree this year we have you covered! Here are a few great suggestions for the breastfeeding mom in your life.

Milk Storage Coolers and Pump Bags

Having a great storage bag for your pump parts and a cooler for your milk is a game changer! There are so many options for bags to store your pump parts. We love these bags from BeMyBreastfriend - they are perfect to store and travel with your pump parts and accessories! 

Pump accessories bag from BeMyBreastfriend

If you're looking to store your milk you can find some great chillers and coolers as well! The Ceres Chill is very popular with moms. You can use it to pump and store your milk on the go (perfect for flying, road trips or pumping at work)! Some moms also love the coolers with ice packs that hold your pump bottles in place and keep them cold! 

Matching Mom and Mini sweatshirt and tees

Who doesn't love matching their mini?! Nursing Queen has several Mom and Me sets. These are not only super cute, but great for nursing on the go during the holiday rush. There are sweatshirt and t-shirt option for moms (all with hidden zipper access) and matching baby onesies or sweatshirts.

Nursing Queen 'Mama and Mini' sets come in gray and camel (there is also a camel sweatshirt option for your little one).

'Mom and Me' matching sets come in Navy/White and Black/White.

Nursing Queen matching 'Mama and Mini' tees come in blue, berry and  forest. 

Nipple Balm 

Here's a great go-to for nursing moms: nipple balm or cream. When choosing one, think about what’s in the cream. Does it have a strong smell? What about the texture? This Lanolin nipple cream is a popular option for moms. 
 
Nursing Pajamas

Sleep can be hard to get as a new mom. So having something cozy to relax in at night is so important! Nursing Queen offers high quality pajamas. This style uses lightweight and breathable fabric that is comfortable and has minimal show-through. Of course, they allow for easy access with each feeding. All you have to do is unbutton the top layer (one-handed), then easily pull up the cropped underlayer (which covers the tops of the breasts while nursing). So great for midnight feeds! 

Nursing Queen's cotton-feel nursing pajamas are perfect for the hospital or at home!

DIY Breastfeeding Gift Basket

If you can't decide on one gift how about putting together a beautiful basket with the essentials: nipple cream, reusable or cloth nursing pads, slippers, a favorite drink and water bottle, ChapStick, favorite snacks (gum and candies are popular choices) and lactation tea. She’ll be able to pick and choose some of the goodies as she needs.

One mom in the Nursing Queen VIP group also suggest a notepad "to write thoughts down when you can’t reach your phone because you’re boob blocked..." Love it! One mom suggest an Amazon gift card for all the midnight feed purchases, and another suggest a Door Dash gift card for dinner deliveries! You could leave a few notes of encouragement as well to remind the mom in your life what an incredible job she is doing! 

Gift Basket options 

Breastfeeding is an exhausting process, so if she gets a few moments alone, why not help her pamper herself? Put together a spa basket with lotion, bath bombs, scrubs, face masks and slippers. She may not be able to go to a spa right now, but you can give her the next best option. 

Breastfeeding is one of the most challenging parts of being a new mom. Giving her items that will make her feel better - and feel loved - is the perfect way to show her that you support her while also making her feel special. 

Nursing Queen has several gift box sets that include socks and all natural soaps. 

How about this gift box set! The Nursing Queen ultimate gift set includes a pair of cozy socks, a relaxing lavender soap, a bath bomb and a gift card! Such a thoughtful gift and a great way to show your support to a breastfeeding mom! The smell coming out of this box is divine with the natural soap! The cupcake socks are super soft and come with anti-slip rubber letters! Everything comes packaged inside a window bakery box with a sticker that reads, "You're not a regular mom, you're a cool mom."
