All the things I bought right before/after we had our daughter. Here are the things I loved having and would buy again!

I did wear this through my entire delivery. It was super cozy, and still allowed the hospital staff to get everywhere they needed too. Much more comfy than the hospital gowns.
I had no idea these existed before I tried breast feeding. What a nipple saver! I received one from my lactation consultant in our hospital and wanted a couple more for at home. The carrying case is great to have, and these are super nice quality. I would confirm with your lactation consultant if this is something you should use 🙂
I wasn’t going to drop the money on these…but I had to for SCIENCE! And boy, am I glad I did. I don’t know how it works, but these healed my nipples and really helped me through breastfeeding. Worth the money! It’s also nice that they come in different sizes too.
Whichever way you deliver your baby, Vaginal or C-Section, you’ll probably need one of these. The one I got from the hospital was impossible to put on by myself without my husband’s help. I had to lay down on our bed, and have four hands to stretch it and put it on. This one I linked is way easier and still just as supportive. A much better option to put on by yourself.
When you’re ready to transition out of diapers postpartum, these underwear are a great option. I bought two sets and was so grateful I did. Great quality and true to size.
I did also have a wearable pump, but actually experienced a lot of problems using it. I tried the Willow 3.0, but the programming wouldn’t read the amount of milk pumped correctly. I did call and get replacement parts. I did favor this manual pump for a couple reasons: less painful, you can control the suction and the noise level. It does take longer, unless you buy 2 pumps and pump both breasts at the same time. Up to you 🙂
My sister gave me this idea. Using date dot stickers when labeling your milk bottles is just genius!! You can write the time you pumped, or your expiration time (whichever works for you) and stick it on the bottle or milkbag. I use this also on baby girl’s liquid antibiotics that expire too.
Just incase no one told you today, you look radiant!
Good luck mama! You can do this!
