Here’s where to find yard sale listings: A little obvious, but we found a tag sale last summer just by driving through town and noticing a sign for a neighborhood tag sale that was taking place over the weekend. I joined our town’s buy/sell group when I moved to Westchester, and community members post their tag sale information. By being part of this group, I’ve found out when some great sales are going on and most recently attended the Sweet Repeats event in Peekskill, which was a large pop-up consignment sale (there is another similar one in Westchester called Be Green Kids this weekend).

Luckily, the NUK Simply Natural Bottle is designed with mom in mind to create that natural feeding experience. And this is something this first time mom was excited to hear about especially when right off the bat, she was advised to supplement her child with pumped breast milk and later formula via a bottle because he was a preemie and needed to gain weight. It’s a lot of work to get your child to learn to breastfeed, especially when he’s 4 weeks early, and I didn’t want to disrupt what we had worked so hard on. In addition, for moms that are pumping, the NUK Simply Natural line also has Freemie® Collection Cups, hands-free pumping accessory that attaches to your pump so you can pump discreetly under your clothes (perfect for my mom friends who pump in the car! ).
