Medela has some awesome breastfeeding products, so it was hard to decide on which ones I'd need most.
I am due in June with my third child and my Medicaid is fully covering a Medela Pump In Style (double electric) Starter Kit for me shortly following delivery. I wanted to see about being able to review some other breastfeeding products that would be good to have while pumping / nursing. I've always heard that Medela is the best brand for breastfeeding products!
I am going to be pumping during the day as well as nursing him, to have milk to freeze to use for bottles at night so that my husband can help rotate feedings as he chooses to. I had previously bought some of the bottles for freezing, so these will definitely get used quite a bit.
The breastmilk feeding gift set can be found HERE and includes: three 5 oz bottles, nipples, collars, and caps, 20 pump and save bags, and six 2.7 oz mini bottles with lids.
The disposable nursing pads can be found HERE and I received 2 boxes of these, which include 30 count in each box.
The pump and save bags can be found HERE and I received 3 boxes of these, which include 20 count in each box.
Here's the products that I received:
- Breastmilk feeding gift set - bottles with lids (2 types) and nipples, and milk bags
- Disposable nursing pads - 2 boxes with 30 count
- Pump and save breastmilk bags - 3 boxes of 20 count
I have 2 sisters in law that are pregnant right now & they are both registered for Medela pumps. These accessories are so important, too!
ReplyDeleteI love my Medela pump :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your upcoming new baby. I love Medela products and used several with my three children. The reusable Medela nursing pads were my favorites. I also had the feeding gift set, like you featured, and got a lot of use out of it over the years.
ReplyDeleteI had a Medela pump, back in the day.I also loved their nursing pads.

ReplyDeleteThank you for a great post. I am going to consider the the breastmilk feeding gift set for my niece.
Yes, Medela has some wonderful products! Congrats on your pregnancy! So exciting :)
ReplyDeleteGood to know! We're going to be trying for our second soon and I've been needing to get back in the swing of things whenever it comes to nursing products!
ReplyDeleteMedela products are fabulous! I'm sure you'll love them with your new baby.
ReplyDeleteMedela is such a great company I have used them many a times over the years with my various kids. I always loved that my hospital had them on hand for me to use with my NICU babies.
ReplyDeleteMedela was my go-to nursing brand. They make fantastic products!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on #3! I love Medela products and wouldn't use anything else when breastfeeding!
ReplyDeleteNursing pads seem like such a simple thing, but they are so important. I'm happy to hear Medela has them. They'll be great to tuck into a new mom's gift basket.
ReplyDeleteYes, I love Medela! I used them when I had a newborn.
ReplyDeleteBreastfeeding is definitely the way to go. Supplies have come a long way since my youngest came along.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your pregnancy. Im due in August and will be getting the same pump thru my insurance. I didnt really know about all of these accessories.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your pregnancy. I am due in August and am getting a Medela pump from my insurance company. I was not aware of all the accessories.
ReplyDeleteI love Medela products! I used their breast pumps with my 3 girls -- first the electric one that looked like a little suitcase, then the manual pump that was super efficient and didn't make any noise...
ReplyDeleteMedela is a great brand. I'm glad those days are behind me, though.
ReplyDeleteI love Medela! When my now-14-month-old was born, I had to pump for the first few weeks after his NICU stay while he learned to nurse, and the pump I rented was Medela. I love their breastfeeding accessories, too!
