14 BREASTFEEDING ESSENTIALS

1. Lanolin

Until your nipples have toughened up, you’ll want to use a good nipple cream after each feeding.

2. Silicone breast pump

3. Breastmilk storage bags

Breastmilk storage bags and bottles are a must have to save all of that precious milk you pump or get from the silicone pump during your letdown.

4. Nursing pillow

A nursing pillow gives you some extra cushion that offers relief for  your arms and brings them closer to your breast (which saves your back!)
