«As a photographer who works with pregnant women and newborns every day, I know what expectant moms actually want and need.
So I put together a list of gifts for pregnant women — for every stage, every budget, and every type of mom-to-be.
From elegant keepsakes to practical everyday essentials, every idea here is something I'd actually recommend to a friend.»
Tami from Wonderstory
Give her the gift of beautiful maternity photos. A professional session in the studio or outdoors — relaxed, guided, and completely about her.
You can also add a Christmas-themed shoot 🎄🎁 for a festive twist.
A video session captures something photos can't — voice, movement, the way she laughs when she looks at her belly.
She'll watch it years from now and feel exactly what she felt that day.
With YOULO, she's the photographer. Remote in hand, pro lighting ready, no one else in the room.
She picks the poses, controls the camera, and keeps every shot. It's personal, private, and a lot of fun.
from 70 €
A journal where she can save photos, write notes, and mark milestones throughout her pregnancy. Months later, she'll flip through it and remember everything — the kicks, the cravings, the excitement.
15–40 €
A necklace or bracelet engraved with a name or a date. Something small she can wear every day that carries real meaning. The kind of gift that gets more special over time.
30–100 €
A healthy, beautifully prepared meal she doesn't have to cook. Set the table, dim the lights, enjoy. Sometimes the best gift is not having to think about what's for dinner.
50–150 €
Framed prints for the walls. Real photos of real moments — not just files sitting on a phone. A printed photo on the wall changes a house into a home.
5–50 € per print
Every month, a box of hand-picked products shows up at her door — skincare, maternity clothes, little treats.
It's like getting a care package from someone who knows exactly what she needs.
20–60 €/month
A one-on-one session with a lactation specialist. She'll get answers to her questions and real, practical guidance before the baby arrives. One session can save weeks of stress.
30–100 € per session
Seeing the baby's face for the first time — before birth. It's one of those moments that stays with you. Trust me — both parents will want to be in the room for this one.
A hands-on workshop where parents learn to design the nursery — choosing colors, layouts, and details that make the room feel warm and ready. Practical and fun.
50 – 150 €
A mat, blocks, and a stretching belt — everything she needs to stay active and relaxed during pregnancy.
Yoga helps with back pain, sleep, and stress. Hard to beat that combination.
30–70 €
A trip to the salon for a new look — pregnancy-safe colors and cuts. A small thing that makes a big difference in how she feels.
30–100 €
Learn to make nutritious, pregnancy-friendly meals. She picks up new recipes, has a good time, and eats well. What more do you need?
30–80 €
A course she can take from home — learn the basics of photography and start documenting her pregnancy and the baby's first months.
She'll use it long after the baby arrives.
50–200 €
A professional newborn photo session in the first two weeks of life. Tiny fingers, sleepy faces, the softest skin.
These are the photos families come back to again and again.
100–300 €
The one item every pregnant woman says she wished she'd gotten sooner. It supports her belly, her back, and helps her actually sleep.
Later, it works for nursing too.
30–80 €
A course for both parents — what to expect during birth, how to handle it, and how to care for a newborn. The more you know, the calmer you feel. And that matters.
50 – 150 €
Essential oils, candles, a diffuser — everything to turn the living room into a calm, quiet space.
She lights a candle, closes her eyes, and takes a breath.
30 – 80 €
A pair of mugs with something personal — names, a funny line, or the baby's due date.
They'll use them every morning and smile.
10–30 € per set
Quick, nutritious meals that work when you have a newborn and zero free time.
Both parents will be glad they took this one.
30 – 80 €
Non-toxic ink and a nice frame. Press the baby's tiny hands and feet, and you've got a keepsake that captures just how small they were on day one.
15–40 €
A virtual session with a sleep specialist. She'll learn strategies that actually work — for the baby and for herself.
Worth every euro when you're running on three hours of sleep.
40–100 € per session
Let her start building the baby's first library. Picture books, bedtime stories — it's one of those gifts that keeps giving for years.
10–100 €
A modern way to collect and share pregnancy and baby photos. Upload from her phone, organize by month, share with grandparents.
Easy and always up to date.
30–100 €
Pregnancy-safe treatments in a calm, quiet setting. A few hours of real relaxation — no phone, no to-do list, just her. She deserves it.
50 – 150 €
A group of women reading and talking about motherhood, parenting, and life. It's support, connection, and a break from the routine — all at once.
10–40 €/month
A proper massage chair at home. Pregnancy puts pressure on the back, the shoulders, everywhere. This takes care of that — every single day.

Soft, stretchy, designed to fit a changing body. Not glamorous, but every pregnant woman will tell you — it matters more than you think.

60–500+ €
Supports the belly during pregnancy, helps with breastfeeding after. Ergonomic, soft, and genuinely useful every single day.
20–60 €
Light, easy to open, designed for nighttime feeds. Because getting up at 3 a.m. is hard enough — why should the pajamas make it harder?
20–50 €
Long, loose, neutral colors. The kind of t-shirts she'll reach for every day in the last trimester. Simple, comfortable, done.
10–30 €
Tops with a discreet opening so she can breastfeed anywhere — at home, in a café, on a walk. Practical and actually stylish.
15–40 €
Pants with an adjustable waistband that grows with her belly. Comfortable all day, every day, through the entire third trimester.
