**Heads up that this is all about breastfeeding **
My friend told me about
this today and I went out and bought one to try. It is so awesome in the sense that it saves milk that would otherwise just end up in a breast pad. I used it three times today. When I was nursing on one side, I used this on the other. I just got 1 oz each time, but still, then it wasn't wasted. Normally I only use one pair of breastpads per day so I'm not a big leaker so I wasn't sure how much I would get. Also, I'm thinking it would increase your supply because it allows the other side to flow a bit more so it would increase how much you made.
The downside is that it is not discrete and you could not wear it out in public but it works well at home. I'm thinking it would also stretch out your bra from wearing it during a feed. Finally, it is expensive ($29.95 from TJ Kiddies). However, I'm a fan and would definitely recommend it!! Wish I had it when I was breastfeeding Kai and Koen as I leaked WAY more with them.
By the way, Nya is 8 weeks old today and beautiful. Maybe it's because I'm her momma, but seriously, aren't her eyes so adorable?

Very interesting product! I never leaked with either of the kids (at any time), but i know it's so common and i think this is great!
ReplyDeleteI rarely leaked either. Never needed to use breast pads.
ReplyDeleteshe IS so beautiful! she looks so dainty!
ReplyDeleteThese look great! I wasn't a big leaker though so maybe it wouldn't be worth it for me?
ReplyDeleteum, I think I need to get some! lol. With Halle I leaked hardcore for MONTHS. I think I was a little over-zealous with pumping while she was in the NICU, and then had crazy let-down issues when I stopped pumping. TMI?
ReplyDeleteI'm behind in my blog reading, but I have to comment on that beautiful baby girl. Oh my goodness. I know that three kids is it for us, but when I see a baby that cute... ;)
