There are so many different breast pump models on the market, and deciding between them can seem confusing. So many factors influence breast pump purchases. In my opinion, the biggest factors are budget and frequency of use. Every mother needs to weigh those factors before picking the pump that fits her lifestyle. Someone who rarely pumps may be content with a manual option or a single-pump. More frequent users generally want automatic, dual breastpumps. While hospital-grade breastpumps can cost hundreds of dollars, you can find high-quality occasional-use models for well-under $100.
It’s tough to find replacement values, membranes, tubing, personal fit breastshields in various sizes, replacement AC adaptors, cleaning supplies and other parts for Medela and Ameda breastpumps. Nursing Mother Supplies has great prices on hard-to-find parts, and shipping is an affordable flat rate ($4.95) no matter how much you buy. Shop for Medela Breastpump Parts […]

As a breastfeeding mom, I’m really attached to my baby in the literal sense. Newborns need to eat frequently, with some “dining at mom’s” every two hours or so. If you want to breastfeed and go back to work, go out on a child-free date with your husband, or just have someone else take one […]
Breastfeeding is beneficial for mom and baby. While some moms have an easy time breastfeeding, others suffer from plugged ducts, milk blisters, blebs (nipple blisters) or even mastitis. Warm moist compresses help soothe the symptoms of plugged ducts and mastitis. Doctors and lactation consultants recommend applying heat to the affected area prior to breastfeeding and then gently massaging the […]
When you have children, you make certain sacrifices. And of course when you look into those smiling faces, it is all worthwhile. But when you watch others sipping cosmos at a cocktail party or mint julips on Derby Day, perhaps you feel the slightest bit jealous? And very thirsty…parched even? When I was pregnant with […]
Dear Mamanista Readers, As you can tell from our frequent reviews of breastfeeding products, we’re very pro-breastfeeding at Mamanista. But– most importantly– we are pro-mama. After her c-section and some other delivery complications, one of Mama Mwah’s friends developed post-partum depression. She also was having a difficult time breastfeeding and suffered a painful nipple infection. Through all of this, the doctors she spoke […]
While breast may be best for baby, some mamas are reluctant to breastfeed because they aren’t comfortable with breastfeeding in public and don’t want to be stuck in their house for months. Stylish breastfeeding covers are a must-have for these mommies. Shortly before Baby Mwah was born, I received a Slurp & Burp Breastfeeding Cover. […]
