The Curation:
what’s in lori’s gift box for an Expectant or new mama?
Why lori Chose These Items:
Mother Mother Face + Belly Oil: “Whether I’m pregnant, postpartum, or somewhere in between, a face and body oil is a must. I love using this one with a gua sha during pregnancy to help ease fluid retention and inflammation.”
Nurtured 9 Maternity Robe in Oatmeal Stripe: “I lived in a robe during both postpartum periods—it made breastfeeding easier and kept me cool and comfortable (hello, milk sweats!).”
Nemah Renewing Nipple Butter & Balm: “A total essential for postpartum and throughout your breastfeeding or pumping journey. I kept one in every bag and on my nightstand—it's that good for soothing and moisturizing.”
Day Two Natural Dry Shampoo: “Let’s be honest—if it’s between washing my hair or taking a nap, I’m choosing the nap. A clean, powder dry shampoo like this keeps my hair feeling fresh(ish) with zero effort.”
Nurtured 9 Haven Candle: “Spending so much time at home, I focused on creating a calming space. This non-toxic candle smells amazing, feels like a little act of self-care, and is baby-safe.”
Lavender, Rose & Cedarwood Bath Bomb: “Baths are a daily ritual for me, and during pregnancy, they became my sanctuary for practicing hypno-birthing. The calming scent and warm water helped me relax, recover, and reset.”
A huge thank you to Lori Leib for sharing her thoughtful gift curation with us!
