Mother's Day is right around the corner, and if you haven't gotten a gift for your mom or the mother figure in your life, you’re in the right place. We’re sharing the best last-minute Mother's Day gifts for every kind of mom on your list.

Thanks to a handful of retailers that guarantee delivery within a certain timeframe, you can still get thoughtful gifts for mom before the big day — some even instantly (digital gift cards!). Look to sites like Amazon, Shopbop, and Nordstrom, which offer fast and free shipping on many beauty, home, and fashion finds. Amazon Prime members: Toggle the Prime button on the left-hand side of the site to filter through products eligible for free 2-day shipping.

Once you’ve found the best online destination for your needs, take mom's interests and passions into account and gift something she may not typically purchase for herself. For example, electric foot massagers make an unexpected yet great gift for a pregnant woman, while women's pajamas from Eberjey make a thoughtful and stylish gift for the wife who runs hot at night.

If you’ve truly waited until the eleventh hour, digital gift cards are your best bet. Once dubbed as a gifting faux pas, digital gift cards are now a simple but thoughtful way to show mom how much you appreciate her. Plant moms will beam over The Sill's digital gift card, while trinket and DIY lovers will swoon for an Etsy gift card.

So keep scrolling to shop the 28 best last-minute Mother's Day gifts — including subscription boxes, gift baskets, digital gift cards, and more — that’ll let mom know she's number one.

Any mother can appreciate the gift of a personal masseuse in her home — aka this portable back and neck massager available on Amazon. It has deep-kneading shiatsu massage nodes and an optional heating function to penetrate and soothe tired muscles. And since it comes in the shape of a pillow, she can use it multiple ways — as a neck pillow she simply lays on, as a calf massager, and more — without much effort.

What reviewers say: "This seems well-made and works exactly as described. I am 6’4 and have been having back pain and stiffness for the past two months, probably a result of long hours working at my desk without stretching and taking enough breaks. I started using this product today. The heat, massaging motion, and pressure all feel great on my tight back muscles. Hopefully, this will last a long while with regular use."
