Coffee And Coos

With a manual pump, it’s easy to make sure you’re always able to pump when you need to. I work part-time in a restaurant, and I always bring my manual pump instead of my electric pump. You can also attach the Haakaa to the other breast while using the manual pump for an electricity free double pump! If you nurse while you pump, you’ll benefit from those extra letdowns and be able to pump more milk.

It’s a great time to try to nurse and your baby’s natural instinct will be to find the nipple. While I think it’s great to take a breastfeeding course while you’re still pregnant, it can also be extremely helpful after you’ve had your baby. It’s a great to have a space to change your baby, let your baby sleep, and keep all your random baby stuff. The Baby Bum Brush is a genius product to help you cut down on the diaper cream mess and keep your fingers out of your baby’s butt (just keeping it real here).
