Catches the let down of the breast you’re not pumping/feeding. Easy to use and easy to clean. Helped create my freezer stash with minimal effort.

Postpartum
As a 3x c-section mama I highly recommend this band for postpartum. Helps keep you feeling put together.

Always opt for organic pads when you can! Especially considering how intimately close they are to your lady parts. This is a great brand that has many options of pad thickness for your first 6-8 weeks postpartum.
Rael Organic Cotton Pads - Ultimate Absorbency
Birth is traumatic on the body and can cause you to be backed up. This is a cleaner option to get things moving smoother postpartum.
Genexa Senna Laxative Tablets - Talc Free
Mary Ruth is a cleaner brand with options for both liquid or gummie multivitamins. It’s important to continue vitamins postpartum to aid in healing. They often run sales so you can save money as well!
