Ah, Mother’s Day.
That time of year when the rest of the world scramble to find the perfect token of appreciation for the women who brought us into this world and raised us with everything that they have.
If you are already a mum yourself, the things you probably want in life are so simple: 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep, a house clean for 24 hours, the laundry basket empty for one entire week, to be able to sit in quiet bliss while you drink your coffee – still warm.
A day where your kids do not fight over a particular piece of cereal when there are 597 other cereal pieces – they can have any of those 597, but they choose to fight over one.
Or so I thought.
After years of wishing for those things, it seems to be, ladies, that we are asking for too much.
Jewelry and flowers are much more realistic, according to my husband. He told me God might even grant my wish if I asked for a pet dragon instead.
And so I thought of the best mother’s day gifts (that are again, much more realistic).
Are you wondering what to give your mum, wife, sister or friend?
If you can’t find a genie that grants at least three of the wishes mum’s have above, I suggest you get her one of our picks below.
Don’t worry, we made sure there’s something that would cater to every budget.
Greeting Cards
Greeting cards are a no – brainer, really. It is the most basic, probably the most popular last minute gift idea to give to mum. Now I am not saying it’s the least favourite of all mums, we will definitely appreciate it! I love greeting cards as they can be kept for years and years.
Although, if you aren’t short on time and have more budget to spare, a greeting card with flowers or a thoughtful gift would be highly appreciated.
Beautiful Mum

If you are looking a gift for YOUR MUM, perhaps skip this part.
Unless you are comfortable with sharing stories and talking about these topics (that would be awkward but ok). However, if you are a husband looking for a gift for your wife or perhaps thinking of gifting something naughty your mum friend – well, you are in the right place!
As you already know – here at SAHM we promote sexual health, sex life improvement, sexual wellness and open communication.
By normalising conversations around sexual wellness and pleasure, we can empower everyone – most of all women (mums) to prioritise their needs and desires, leading to greater satisfaction and overall wellbeing. Such a great gift to give for mother’s day!
Also, it is not a secret – we love toys and lingerie we want to share our love for them as well.
