My Exclusive Pumping Must Haves

Hello mammas,

As a first time mom and exclusive pumper. Here are some of the products I have found to be helpful/things I’ve learned along the way.

1.) The right flange size actually matters!

I started off just using the flange that came with my pump thinking it would be fine but they were both too big. Once I switched to the right size I had better output and less soreness.

2.) replacement pump parts. As a first time mom o had no idea that pump parts need replacing regularly. Some insurance companies will cover these but I find it easier to just get them on Amazon

3.) Leaving the house as a first time mom felt like an impossible task while trying to juggle pumping and feeding schedules. This bottle cooler works great. I can bring multiple bottles on the go and store my pumped milk as well.

4.) This may seem obvious but pumping bras made a huge difference. Being able to pump hands free and scroll on my phone makes the time pass quicker.

5.) I have the spectra and this portable battery pack works great so I can pump in the go or move around the house and not have to move the plug around.

6.)I have tried a lot of lactation supplements and I think at the end of the day power pumping has been the biggest help for increasing supply. With that being said the boobie body superfood has been a great addition to my coffee and does seem to help with my milk supply.

This is just what I have found to work for me- what products or pumping tips have you found to be been essential?
