The Winter Warmer Box by The Mother Box

(Features press samples - see disclaimer)

If you've been around these parts for a while you may remember not long after giving birth to our son I had a beautiful box arrive from The Mother Box to aid my recovery and ease me into motherhood. They are such a thoughtful idea and it's one of those gifts I really remember from those first few weeks of baby fog.

If you haven't heard of them before, lemme give you a little background: 

Co-founders, Alexis (a midwife) & Beccy (a doula) have a combined 25 years experience working with women during pregnancy, birth and postnatal to create The Mother Box - a carefully curated gift box including tried and tested products that aid new mums. Alexis and Beccy were inspired to create the boxes after years of being asked by women for their advice on caring for themselves in pregnancy, the best products to pack in their hospital bags and for tips on the best ways to heal and recover following birth.

 For Winter 2020, there is a new edition and one I think you will love - The Winter Warmer Box! 

Shall we take a look?

The Winter Warmer Box (£68.00) is Hygge in a box which just about ticks every box for me. When the evenings get colder and darker there's nothing I love more than snuggling up on the sofa in big fluffy socks, a blanket and with the edition of delicious herbal tea and bar of chocolate inside here - I'm set for winter. 

The gorgeous gift box contains Warming Lemon & Ginger Bath Soak, Cosy Alpaca Bedsocks, Luxury Winter Spice scented candle, Sleepy Time Herbal Tea, Dark Chocolate and Candy Cane Tony’s Bar.

So it's the perfect dose of TLC and warming Winter goodness for anyone in need!

One of the items I was most excited about were the Alpaca Annie Socks! They're natural, organic and hypoallergenic plus they keep your feet nice and cosy but not too hot! 

Seven Seventeen Candles make an appearance with their Winter Spice candle which smells incredible - I can't wait to light it on the day we put our Christmas decorations up along with enjoying a few squares of Candy Cane chocolate. 

The tea and bath salts are such a warming addition too - there's nothing quite like enjoying a cuppa in the bath while bath salts melt away those aches and pains. 

It makes a wonderful gift for anyone during pregnancy and post-partum but even more so now when giving birth during a pandemic has had such an emotional impact on so many people. 

Mothers are quite often forgotten about but something like this really is the perfect way to tell someone you're thinking of them at a time they need it most. I know that's how I felt when I first received my box in 2017 after having Joshua. 

You can purchase any of the boxes direct from their website The Mother Box and you have the opportunity to create your own with their guidance too!

It's a wonderful gift and by ordering, you're supporting a small business as well - win win I'd say.
