Your breastfeeding journey.
There are certain products and pieces of advice that my village shared with me that guided me through the journey, especially in those first few weeks.
Kindred Bravely Organic Reusable Nursing Pads with Carry Bag
Made of the softest organic bamboo plus wicking microfiber, these nursing pads are ideal for sore nipples and nursing mothers’ sensitive skin, and can be used with or without your favorite nipple creams.
Lansinoh Stay Dry Disposable Nursing Pads
Convenient, easy to use, and very absorbent, Lansinoh nursing pads have an InvisiLock core to instantly capture and disperse moisture. These pads absorb 20 times their weight to keep you confident and dry day and night.
Lansinoh Breast Therapy Packs with Soft Covers, Hot and Cold Breast Pads
Use as an ice pack to relieve engorgement, swelling and pain in the early days of breastfeeding. Use as a heating pad to relieve clogged ducts and mastitis and encourage milk let-down during breastfeeding.
Silverettes - 925 Silver
Soothe sore nipples with our silver nipple shield.; The only silver nipple shell caps that work. 100% natural, safe and effective; No other creams or lotions needed; No chemicals to moms or babies. Nickel free.
Medela Breastmilk Nursing Bags
I recommend using the same “system” or brand for all things when it comes to measuring for baby. Sometimes there can be small differences between brands.
Medela Breast Milk Storage Solution Set
Storage for your milk so you can track how many days you have before needing to freeze. 4 days in the refrigerator is safe for use, and then move to the freezer where you can preserve for 4 months (as the general rule).
Nipple Crack
Made with premium organic ingredients that are odorless & tasteless -so you don’t have to wash it off before breastfeeding. Soothes and relieves sore/cracked nipples.
Elvie Catch Milk Collection Shells
Our slip-proof silicone cups keep Elvie Catch secure, and helps prevents leaks while collecting up to 1 oz/30ml of milk on each side. No more wasted milk in your breast pads.
avyllage to support you
In those first few weeks of caring for a newborn, there are a lot of emotions, situations and experiences that I didn’t know about or wasn’t ready for. I used to tell my friends that were about to become new parents via email - but instead - I’m sharing them here.
My vyllage to yours - I’m sharing my journey in the hope it will help yours.
