Pumps
I used a variety of pumps during my feeding journey and alternated between them throughout the entire time.
Spectra is hands down the best at home pump on the market. It has a light for night time use and is capable of pumping one or both sides at the same time.
S2 Plus | Hospital Strength Breast Pump
This pump is easy to travel with, does not require batteries or plugs, and has a flexible flange that is more comfortable than typical hard plastic versions. Some use this on the opposite side when breastfeeding baby
Harmony™ Manual Breast Pump
Many love the haaka for getting the most out of their let down on the opposite side while feeding baby, but i found it absolutely essential for clearing clogged milk ducts with Epson salt and warm water. Every bf mom needs one of these
Haakaa Generation 2 Silicone Breast Pump with Suction Base 5 oz 1pk
Bras
Whoever invented these really deserves a medal 🏅 👏 it only takes one time of having to hold your flanges in place or not having that latch hook on your bra cup to fully appreciate these products!
Great affordable hands free pumping bra. It has clip down cups so you can wear it as a nursing bra when not pumping, and straps can be adjusted to criss cross in the back or straight down.
Momcozy Hands Free Adjustable Pumping Bra
My favorite affordable nursing bras

Much like my pump picks, I couldn't have just one nursing pillow! I found that different ones worked for different situations and switched them out frequently to suit my needs.
Boppy is comfy and the best go-to nursing pillow and travels easy too!

The comfiest nursing pillow EVERRR! I tried many pillows and this one is hands down my favorite. It is so comfortable and made with a squishy foam material, and comes in gorgeous color choices. It is well worth the price.
Butterr Nursing Pillow
I love this pillow for it's sturdiness and the clip on feature to keep it in place. It also travels well for on the go and the price point is great if you're not wanting to spend a ton of money.
My Brest Friend
This pillow is amazing! It was great for nursing twins, but also was useful for tummy time or using as loungers for them also. It comes with three pieces that you can mix and match together to suit your needs and I found myself using this for so many...
