Are you looking for the perfect stocking stuffers for a special mom-to-be in your life? It’s tricky because you want to give helpful and thoughtful gifts without being offensive (hello, hemorrhoid cream). Plus, people start to lean into giving her ‘baby things’ which she may or may not like.
Here’s a list of inexpensive (but useful) stocking stuffers for the expectant mothers in your life. I’ve tried to keep everything under $30 but most items run around the $5 – $10 mark.
- Set of pregnancy scratch off activity cards
- Burt’s Bees Mama leg and foot cream
- Pink Stork labor prep Tea
- Compression socks (here’s why: Compression Socks During Pregnancy: Feel the Awesome!)
- Kinesiology tape for belly support
- Roller massage ball
- Burt’s Bees Mama belly butter
- Portable mini fan for hot flashes

Whether it’s a pampering skincare product, a practical maternity accessory, or a heartfelt memento, these stocking stuffer ideas are sure to brighten her day and make her feel appreciated – without being a bunch of gifts for the baby. Let me know if you have any other suggestions and I’ll add them to the list!
