1. A Simple Card
My sister gave me a happy Mother’s Day card when I was still pregnant with my first daughter, Regan, who was born shortly after. All these people kept being like, ‘you’re almost a mom,’ which was really upsetting, because I had carried her for so long already. Needless to say, the card meant a lot!” —Lindsay K.

Kate Spade Initial Pendant Necklace
"The best Mother's Day gift I've ever received—and repeatedly gift to new mom friends—is this initial necklace from Kate Spade. There are a zillion versions like it on the market, but I love the price point on this one and the message behind it: The initial is the first letter of my son's name and it makes me feel like he's close to my heart always—when I'm at work, running errands or just embracing some much-needed R&R." —Rachel B.

Sure, it wasn’t as pretty as the flowers they get me every year, but I can use this item every day and I'd never think to get it myself. It was definitely a nice surprise that showed they know me so well.” —Terri M.
