Truth be told, you don't need a reason, a holiday, or a birthday to buy a soon-to-be mama a present. It doesn't have to be the holiday season. It doesn't have to be an upcoming baby shower. It doesn't have to be Mother's Day. Pregnant women deserve presents. It's as simple as that.

But with first Mother's Day gifts on our minds, well... we've got even more of a desire to spoil the soon-to-be mamas in our lives. Ahead, we're sharing our favorite gifts for pregnant women and first-time moms in the hopes that they'll make it that much easier for you to carry out an epic (and well-deserved) surprise. Most of these gifts are of the practical variety—she's going to need accessories for her baby stroller, after all—but we've also included some treats, cozy gifts, and just-for-fun splurges that truly celebrate her.

Even if she got a lot for her baby shower or is already well-prepared, there will certainly be some items on this list that she doesn't have. (Check her registry first, just in case!) Some of the best gifts for moms are the ones that are sentimental in nature, so we included a few of those picks, too: a keepsake pregnancy journal and a "Love at First Sight" sonogram frame that are both too adorable for words. So go on—give the pregnant women in your life a little pick-me-up!
