It still catches me off guard when I say out loud that I am a mother of two. In my head, I'm still a globe-trotting 23-year-old who enjoys lengthy brunches and spending her weekends dancing the night away. For the record, I still dance the night away, but by night, I mean 4 p.m., and it's mostly to the catchy tunes provided by Cocomelon. If you know, you know.

Being a parent can be a wonderful and crazy mixed bag of emotions, especially if you're a first-timer. It is, by far, the most magical, challenging, blissful, emotional, tender, exhausting, and joyous experience of my whole life, and I wouldn't change it for the world! As you can imagine, I've learned firsthand (and picked up a lot of tips) what items can be helpful through pregnancy and once the baby arrives. There are certain things you truly appreciate as a new mother—whether it's the comfort of a good robe, a bra that makes breastfeeding easier, a coffee cup that keeps your drink hot, or the perfect swaddle—and the little things truly make the difference as you navigate through parenthood.

Mother's Day is just around the corner, so if you're looking to buy the perfect gift for a new parent in your life, I'm sharing plenty of gift suggestions below that I recommend—from practical pieces to stylish must-haves.
