More often than not, the new mums are usually forgotten in this whole gifting-spree. 

After the most physically painful experience of their lives, it's important to show love and support by pampering new mums with gifts, even if they don't say so. 

Here are 3 perfect gifts that you might surprise her with

Home-cooked meal

Tell me a better way to a new mum's heart other than some delicious home-cooked meal. Most mums will appreciate this since especially if they don't have a house-help. Even if they do, just the fact that you took time and prepared food for them will probably warm their hearts. Bonus points if you prepare them their favourite food.

 To hack this, it's important to think nutritious and freezer-friendly meals that just need to be defrosted and warmed up. 

A water-bottle 

Since it's important for breastfeeding mums to stay hydrated, a re-usable water bottle will go a long well in helping a new mum achieve this, especially during the early days when she's still recovering from delivery. 

A baby sling wrap 

Though babies are the happiest when snuggled up with their mothers, this stretchy wrap will make a mum's life so much easier. This will perfectly allow her to move around and get stuff done around the house while still babysitting.
