Friends of pregnant women— this post is for you. There are many new-baby essentials that every parent needs like a crib, eco-friendly baby clothes and TONS of diapers :) But there are other items that don’t always make the registry. So today, in partnership with VTech, we’re bringing you 14 must-haves for new moms. Our guide features a combination of essentials, keepsakes and gifts just for mom. After all, she deserves a little pampering.


We’re so excited to be working with VTech, a company that’s committed to safety and dependability, and whose products include features that go above and beyond the ordinary. They make us have a lot of “I’m so glad they thought of that!” moments. A great example is the VTech Safe&Sound® DM271 Digital Audio Monitor. Not only is it great for new moms, but with alerts from the open/closed and motion sensors on doors, cabinets and open spaces, this monitor will grow with her child so when her sleeping baby becomes a curious (and sneaky!) toddler, she’ll know if they’re getting into something they shouldn’t be.
