This is a bit tricky. When we think about the size of our breasts, we generally think in terms of clothing and underwear. You are X size so you need Y bra size. Simple right? Since the flanges fit up against your breast tissue, the same concept should apply to your breast pump, right?

Are you pumping for the first time? Pumped for your first child and ready to bust out your breast pump for your next child?  What about if you’re  currently pumping with other kids at home? 

In this post we’ll answer a common question our Mommy Care Team receives, can I use lubrication with the BeauGen Breast Pump Cushions? We’ll also provide information about the product that is recommended by our Mommy Care Team, and where you can get it.  Hint: It’s closer than you might think!

The truth about breastfeeding is that it’s not always easy.  Yes, some moms will be able to do it from day one, but others will struggle.  Every mom’s breasts are unique. Our breasts are different shapes and sizes.  Some nipples are better suited for nursing, while others are inverted or elastic.  Having difficulty nursing doesn’t make you any less of a mom.  In fact, it’s perfectly normal. It just means moms might have to try a few different techniques to find a way that works between mama and baby.

We understand that you have a lot going on in the final weeks of your pregnancy.  Finalizing your nursery, preparing your birth plan, washing itty bitty baby clothes, baby proofing your home and now we’re heaping on learning about breastfeeding.  But, taking some time to read up on this important part of motherhood can help to smooth out the first few weeks of your baby’s life.

Did you know there are approximately 130 million babies born worldwide each year and only 31,000 IBCLCs? Hold up. Before we address that question, I should probably make sure you know that an IBCLC is an abbreviation for a healthcare professional who supports all things breastfeeding (more on that later).
