Lack of sleep can seriously stifle mom’s health. Studies show insufficient sleep is linked to a host of ailments, like heart disease and depression. Sleep masks can help block light that might interfere with rest, so mom can doze more comfortably.

Wearable trackers have become a popular accessory, and it’s no wonder: These simple devices keep tabs on mom’s daily activity and sleep cycles. Most devices can wirelessly sync to mom’s smartphone — so personalized health data is always at her fingertips.
