Mother’s Day is just around the corner and, this year, we decided to do something special for all new mothers, mothers-to-be and their little ones.

Take a look at our special guide below for hand-selected products by some of the best Canadian and American brands. You will want to add all of them to your shopping list.

For mom

B Mats by B Yoga

Namaste, FAJO moms! Stay in shape and enjoy yoga to the fullest with the B Mat Strong.

Clear your mind, get back the pre-baby body and meditate; the B Mat Strong provides you with the support and comfort you need to attain your goal. It is also available in different sizes/lengths.

In addition, the mat is a great choice for Hot Yoga aficionados, as it prevents your wrists from sliding. It is available in a variety of vibrant colours and is perfect for a higher impact practice.

Mayana Genevière’s Opulence collection

“Motherhood is a re-birth of yourself” says Nadine Woods, the designer behind Mayana Genevière. Feeling sexy and breastfeeding should not be mutually exclusive, and now it’s not!

Mayana Genevière is the perfect place for a nursing mother to obtain the softest and most elegant maternity lingerie. With the special Aluxtra clasp free-nursing technology, the Lorena bra from the Opulence collection offers elegance, sensuality, premium support and 100% organic cotton lining.

You’re on your way to that flat tummy with the yoga mat, and Mayana Geneviere’s all-in-one waist cincher will help you get there that much faster. This piece is like a corset for your waist, helping your skin snap back faster into its original tightness pre-baby, and leaving you looking comfortable and fabulous in that summer dress post-baby. This postpartum shapewear is also made with 100% organic cotton, designed specifically to provide abdominal support postpartum, and the perfectly breathable fabric leaves you dry and sexy as you express post-birth water retention.
