For the holidays two years ago, I purchased one of these for myself and one for my sister-in-law who was nursing her son. This serves somewhat of the same purpose as a Boppy but is more travel/on-the-go friendly. I think that this is a good product not only for nursing, but also for situations where … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: The Nursie
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Lactation Cookie Bites
Full disclosure: I did not ever exclusively breastfeed, so I am a little limited in my knowledge of the tricks of the trade when it comes to milk supply. However, I have read a lot of message boards and posts in mom groups, and lactation cookies are frequently recommended as a means to ingest nutrients … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Lactation Cookie Bites
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Pull-Down Button-Front Nursing Top
Before I had a child, even if you showed me the most obvious looking nursing top, I would have had no idea of its “hidden” function. I had no idea nursing tops even existed, except for the tanks that had the clips on the straps. Now that I know about this category of clothing, I’m … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Pull-Down Button-Front Nursing Top
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Breastmilk Storage Bags
As I previously mentioned, I combo fed from the beginning. Even though I had supply issues, I still built up a measly freezer stash — and I really liked using these bags. All of their benefits are clearly advertised on the box, and I did find that they worked as promised. They were easy to … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Breastmilk Storage Bags
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Racerback Hands-Free Pump & Nursing Bra
From the very beginning, I had to nurse, pump, and supplement with formula. It was basically a full-time job. For those who pump — exclusively, as part of combo feeding, and/or at work — I have no idea how you would do it without a hands-free pumping bra. As much as I disliked pumping, at … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Racerback Hands-Free Pump & Nursing Bra
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Travel Bottle and Food Warmer
Unfortunately, my son only wanted warm bottles and would only drink the full amount in the bottle if it was warmed up. This posed a problem when out and about for the day. I spent so much time researching travel bottle warmers, and this is the best one that worked for us. Basically, it’s a … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Travel Bottle and Food Warmer
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Nursing and Car Seat Cover
This is one of those products that you will use almost every day during the newborn phase. It is a multitasker that serves as a breastfeeding cover, scarf, and car seat cover. My favorite use for it by far was as a car seat cover. I frequently used my car seat (Chicco KeyFit 30) and … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Nursing and Car Seat Cover
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Crowned Beauty Breastmilk Ring
I can see this being a controversial pick, and to be honest I’m not 100% sure how I feel about it myself. This is a company that makes jewelry out of breastmilk that you send them, and my honest initial reaction to hearing that there’s a market for this was that I was weirded out. … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Crowned Beauty Breastmilk Ring
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Soothies Gel Nursing Pads
Like many of my friends and acquaintances, I could probably write an essay about my breastfeeding “journey.” Even though I read a lot about it before having a baby, I think I still underestimated how much it could sometimes just plain HURT. Because I had supply issues right from the start, my baby stayed latched … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Soothies Gel Nursing Pads
Postpartum Tuesday: Lactation Cookies
The other day at Target, I wound up in the maternity & infant section, where I hadn’t been in a while. I was intrigued to see that Target has lactation cookies for a much more affordable price than I paid for the very tasty Milkmakers cookies (also at Target) a thousand years ago. I thought I’d share these … Read More about Postpartum Tuesday: Lactation Cookies
Nursing Tuesday: Toffee Nursing Camisole
This nursing camisole from Cake is getting rave reviews at Nordstrom. Yes, $55 may seem like a lot for an undergarment, but as every pumping and nursing mom knows, a nursing camisole is likely the primary thing you’ll wear on a daily basis to raise your neckline and give you enough coverage while you’re pumping … Read More about Nursing Tuesday: Toffee Nursing Camisole
Maternity Monday: Brookfield Dress
Happy Monday! Did you guys know that Of Mercer has a maternity collection that’s all office-appropriate? A lot of the pregnant models are featured on the site wearing (and looking good in) dresses in straight sizes, but this one is only in maternity sizes. It comes in black and navy, and I like that there’s a … Read More about Maternity Monday: Brookfield Dress
