Les produits de MaYa Liniment & Body Butter

The natural mom will love Les Produits de MaYa’s multipurpose Coconut and Shea Liniment for everything from cleansing to makeup removal.

You might easily find this nourishing Liniment can replace 5 products you’re already using! 

For a really decadent treat, MaYa’s CoKa Whipped Body Butter will moisturize, protect and nourish dry patches. They like to call it “a blanket for the skin to keep cozy in the cold.” The body butter contains only four ingredients (coconut oil, avocado oil, shea butter and vitamin E) and can be used anywhere that needs some TLC, including faces, hands and feet.

Les Produits de MaYa products are affordable, multipurpose and certified vegan, coming to you from the Jelonik family in Quebec Canada.

Bananafish Studio Triple Go Diaper Bag

Bananafish Studio’s Triple Go Diaper Bag offers three ways to carry, and a roomy compartment to hold all your new mom needs and necessities. The interior includes separate bottle holder pockets and a zip close pocket to keep items secure. On the outside are two front zip pockets, side bottle pockets and a full-size back pocket. There’s also a free changing pad included! Sturdy silver zippers and a silvertone Bananafish logo plate complete the look.

I love that this bag is so easy to customize according to your personal style. Carry using the backpack straps, or tuck them into the pocket and use as a shoulder bag. If you want to carry as a tote, detach the shoulder straps and use just the top strap.

The Triple Go diaper bag is made of easy-clean sturdy polyester and measures 16″W x 7″D x 12″H. One of the best features? It only costs $29.84!

    I really was happy for my cloth pads this time around, and I like Pink Lemonade brand. I used disposables in the hospital but have been pleasantly surprised by how much nicer cloth pads feel. They don’t sweat, stink, or stick! So easy to just rinse out and throw in my laundry and they’re so soft and pretty they’re just a little luxury every change.

    These are great ideas. The best gifts are the free ones IMO though. My church does Meal Trains for 2 weeks for new moms, which is very appreciated. I loved it when a friend offered to take my older child for a afternoon playdate when the sibling was born. A friend offering to do a load of laundry, change the sheets, wash the dishes, or even keeping an eye on the baby while you get a shower & a nap would be awesome.

      I LOVE the meal train, too! We have a lady assigned to each town at our church, and she makes the calls and usually gets 1-2 weeks of meals lined up. So incredibly helpful and a great blessing! On the flip side, if you’re one of the families bringing the meal, you get to see the adorable new baby, too! ~Anne Marie

    I got lucky and had my mom around to help with my baby. It was nice having someone cook for me, or let me nap or shower without having to worry. So for any new mom, lunches or dinners would be a good gift.

    Reusable nursing pads are utterly indispensable! I’d have loved to use mama cloth after birth if I’d had absorbent and large enough pads for postpartum (I only have liners).

      November 13, 2018 at 12:58 pm

      Yeah, the postpartum pads are longer and thicker and do cost more. For that reason, I’ve only bought a few, but even those few have been indispensable! ~ Anne Marie
