On The Go Pumping
So great for on the go. I traveled a lot for work and would sometimes need to pump on a plane and this came in handy to have with me at all times. Easy to store on the go.
Medela Harmony Manual Breast Pump, Swiss Design
I got these specifically for road trips. I was an oversupplied so I got engorged easily. Small enough to travel with and it not take up a ton of space.
Momcozy M5 Hands-Free Wearable Breast Pump
Loved these for traveling abut also would bring them into work with me for my pump sessions at work. Came in handy a lot during my travel working time.
Breast Pump Wipes
Really really really loved the haaka. Another on the go essential for me. So discreet if I ever needed to pump on a plane without having to get up from my seat

Breast milk Storage
My favorite storage bags! Laid flat in the freezer so it was easy to stack and store
Lansinoh Breastmilk Storage Bags, 100 Count
I was gifted these from a friend and used them for a few months. Not the flattest lay in the freezer so sometimes hard to stack but overall great quality bags
Motif Breast Milk Storage Bag
What I used to label my storage bags. I was afraid of smearing or fading and these worked really well. I always knew what day my milk would expire because the writing was crisp and clear
Sharpie Extreme Permanent Markers, Fine Point
So essential for pumping moms. I at times would be using 10+ of these in one day. I’d have fresh milk in the fridge, would store these in a cooler bag after pumping at work, and you can also buy attachments to feed baby directly from the storage bott...
Medela Breast Milk Collection & Storage Bottles
Pumping Time
It was essential for me to have a pump I could plug into the wall. From my understanding this is much better suction than any wearable pump can provide. I loved the spectra s2 and was able to get it through my insurance.
S2 Plus Premier Double Electric Breast Pump
10000% worth the price. This is a hospital grade pump. I owe this machine my life. I will be using this for every kid I have. I kept this next to my bed so that I could pump first thing in the mornings when I was the most engorged. Would get at minim...
The Medela Symphony
Feeding time
I enjoyed glass bottles a lot. Easy to clean and sanitize!
Philips Avent Natural Glass Baby Bottles Slow
A lot of people complain about having too many parts but each part has a function. My baby never had issues with burping and I believe it’s because we used these bottles starting off
Baby Bottles
Compatible with the medela storage bottles. Made everything very convenient because I didn’t have to transfer milk from bottle to bottle before feeding baby
Medela Slow Flow Spare Nipples Wide Base 3pk
Miscellaneous
My favorite nursing pads. As an over-supplier these were essential for the first 6 months of breastfeeding!
