10 Mother’s Day Gifts Every SG Mom-to-Be Will Adore

There’s nothing quite like the swirl of emotions that begins with those two little pink lines. From the fluttery excitement of the first trimester to the full-belly joy of the third, or the overwhelming love of holding your newborn for the first time, each stage of motherhood deserves to be honoured. And what better moment than this upcoming Mother’s Day to pamper that incredible mom-to-be in your life?

If you’re scratching your head for the perfect present, we’ve done the hard work for you.

Here's a lovingly curated list of 10 Mother’s Day gift ideas that every Singapore-based mom-to-be will absolutely adore.

1. Thoughtful Keepsakes

For a sentimental mom-to-be, keepsakes are gifts that transcend time. Think birth flower pendants that symbolise the baby’s expected birth month, or delicate mother-and-child duo accessories like interlocking necklaces and charm bracelets. A beautifully designed photo frame for the first ultrasound image or a newborn picture adds a sweet personal touch to her space.

These are tangible reminders of the journey she's on, a precious memory she’ll hold dear for years to come.

2. Healthy Snack Hampers

Pregnancy cravings are real, and what better way to support her journey than with nourishing (and delicious) snacks? Healthy hampers filled with lactation cookies, protein bars, dry fruit laddoos, unsalted dry fruits, veggie sticks, and trail mixes are not just thoughtful but also essential. You could even opt for hampers with a local twist, think organic kaya-spread crackers or tropical fruit boxes!

Not only will it satisfy those sudden hunger pangs, but it also reminds her that her well-being is a priority.

3. Fresh Flowers

Nothing says “you’re special” quite like a bouquet of Mother’s Day flowers. A vibrant bunch of peonies, tulips, or roses can brighten her room and mood in an instant. You can even pair it with a handwritten note or a plush bunny for the baby-to-be.

In Singapore, where many florists offer same-day delivery, this becomes an easy but heartfelt gesture for Mother’s Day.

4. Drinkware Essentials

Hydration is crucial for moms-to-be and new moms, and chic drinkware can be both practical and stylish. Gift her a Stanley bottle in a pastel hue, a smart mug that keeps her herbal teas warm, or a personalised baby bottle set for those future feeds.

Functional, aesthetic, and designed to make everyday moments just a little easier, these are the gifts that will be used (and loved) daily.

5. Affirmation Cards

Sometimes, what she really needs is a boost of positivity. Affirmation cards with empowering, mum-centric messages can become her daily source of strength. Whether it’s “I trust my body” or “I am doing enough,” these gentle reminders can make a world of difference during emotional highs and lows.

They’re perfect for her nightstand, vanity, or even to tuck into a hospital bag.

6. Postpartum Recovery Essentials Kit

Support her fourth trimester with a Postpartum Recovery Essentials Kit. These can include everything from intimate hygiene products to breastfeeding supplements, nursing-friendly wear, skin and body care, and postnatal vitamins. Brands in Singapore now curate kits with locally sourced, natural products, perfect for sensitive postpartum needs.

This is one of those incredibly thoughtful gifts that says, “I see what you’re going through, and I’m here for you.”

7. Baby Care Hampers

Let’s not forget the little bundle of joy. A baby care hamper with babygrows, onesies, socks, booties, and plush accessories is both adorable and practical. Some come with matching mittens and cardigans, perfect for Singapore’s cool, air-conditioned interiors.

You can even find eco-friendly versions made with organic cotton and gentle dyes for babies with sensitive skin.

8. Mini Me Matching Fits

Few things are as cute as mini-me outfits, matching sets for mum and baby in floral prints, stripes, or cheeky slogans. Whether it’s pyjamas, tees, or festive fits for a Hari Raya or National Day photoshoot, they make for picture-perfect moments.

These are gifts that make memories—Instagram-worthy and heart-melting in equal measure.

9. Baby Hand & Footprint Kit

Capture the tiniest details of this journey with a baby hand and footprint kit. It’s an engaging activity and a lifelong keepsake rolled into one. Look for mess-free clay or ink pad versions that are safe for newborns.

She’ll love displaying this in the nursery, a proud token of the early days she’ll never want to forget.

10. Books for New Moms

Gift her the wisdom and wit of authors who get what motherhood is all about. Consider “Expecting Better” by Emily Oster for evidence-based advice, “Fair Play” by Eve Rodsky for mental load balance, “Good Inside” by Dr. Becky Kennedy for emotional parenting support, or “Good Moms Have Scary Thoughts” for mental health awareness.

A good book is like a wise friend; it entertains, enlightens, and reassures, all at once.

Whether she’s proudly growing a tiny human, on maternity leave, or navigating night feeds with grace (and caffeine), she deserves gifts that recognise both her physical journey and emotional transformation.
