Pump Tip
by leighI was pretty much a pumping failure. I breastfed exclusively for 8 months with Alyssa and 6 months with Haylie, but I could never seem to get anything out with the pump! Hook a baby up, and it’d be practically running out of their mouths. But a pump? No. I’d work all day for just a measly few ounces. Lyn, on the other hand, is a pumping champ. I’m happy for her that she’s not like Cinderella with a 3 hour window - it is liberating, I’m sure!
Whether you’re a pumper or ‘just barely’ like I was, breastmilk is like liquid gold. And because I love organizing and making a good process out of everything, I wanted to share Sensible Lines Milk Trays with you. I met these gals at Baby Celebration LA a few years ago, and it made such great sense. Kind of a ‘why didn’t I think of that?’
Their FDA-approved and ‘green’ plastic trays are specifically designed for freezing breastmilk. And get this- each ‘milk stick’ of frozen breast milk is 1 ounce and will fit through any size bottle opening. It makes it so easy to measure your milk and avoid wasting it. Perf, too, for working moms and caregiver situations. Their website is loaded with great info. on breastfeeding and properly freezing/storing breastmilk. Check it out here. We love supporting other Mommy-created and run businesses!
