FIRST TIME TO THE BEACH

The other day I met up with Nolan's aunt and uncle, his auntie lives right by the beach and his uncle was home for the holidays. I know Nolan is a little young to really enjoy the beach but he is just so curious about the world I had to take him. It was a fun but short experience as it shortly became is feeding time...here are some pictures...this one is my fav.

MILKIES FOR THE MOMMIES

Caution: Extreme Mommy Content Below!!

I came across this product or device for breastfeeding mommies called milkies milk savers. I debated for a long time if I really wanted to spend the $25 to get one, I asked myself how bad do I really wanted to save the 1 or 2oz it catches. The answer was yes! I do! I would rather try to catch what is going to come out anyway rather then pump.

I will admit when I first got the milkie in the mail I hated it, it was bulky and thick, nothing like it looks in the picture. I was about to return it when I realized I didn't read on the website that I couldn't return it. :(

So yesterday Nolan was taking was one of his longs naps when I could feel that my milk was about to come in, not wanting to wake him, I gave the milkie a shot. Bulky? Yes, Discreet? No!! Milk Saver? Yes! within like a hour or so it felt like, I was over flowing!!

I'm excited to not pump and I will have Nolan food saved for the babysitters :)

I recommend a stretchy bra and a loose shirt and for the record I will only use this at home, too much hassle to use it while breastfeeding away from home.
