It saddens me to see moms giving up on breastfeeding because they have no idea on how to make it work. Let me share with you all my favorite breastfeeding essentials.
Do you know that your breastmilk is an excellent cure for sore nipples? Yes! Just squeeze and apply some breast milk lavishly over your nipples and let it air dry.
Stick a nursing pad to your boobs! Nursing pads are made of an absorbent material that you just tuck inside your bra, and it takes care of leaky boobs.
I know some babies just hate being covered. As I said, wait till the baby comes and see what best suits you and your baby's persona. If you like the idea of a nursing cover check this out.
I did not like the idea of lifting my shirt every time I wanted to feed, so I bought some button-down shirts that I lived in throughout my glorious breastfeeding days.
