Favorite Breastfeeding & Lactation Amazon Finds

If you’re a pumping or breastfeeding mama, you know it’s a special experience, but it’s also no walk in the park. In this week's Friday Favorites post, I am sharing my favorite amazon finds that have helped me increase my milk supply and have made pumping easier.

Please note that I'm an exclusive pumper, being a preemie/NICU mama.

All items below include convenient shoppable links.

Hydration! Hydration! Hydration!

Stanley - Breastfeeding mamas are always thirsty!! It always amazes me how much more water I drink when I have a large bottle attached to me. I cannot tell you how much more water I have been drinking just because I have a large bottle attached to me at all times especially when I'm pumping!

Body Armor – No sugar and great for hydration & electrolytes because it's made with coconut water.

Pro tip - mix with coconut water over ice for extra hydration.

Ultima hydration - the healthier liquid ivs! ps. my favorite is cherry pomegranate.

Oatmeal – Oats are one of the top milk producing foods.

Smarty Pants Women's Vitamins with Omegas – Supports nutrition for mom and baby during breastfeeding.

Lactation Cookies - easy, yummy, & actually work! I couldn't reccomend these cookies enough. They come in multiple flavors and actually taste good.

Extra Pump Parts And lastly & most importantly, it doesn't matter which lactation cookies or protein powder you have if you aren't using a strong pump, correct flange size, or replacing your pump parts.

About two months into my pumping journey, I got mastitis. My supply dropped, but quickly, after replacing my pump parts, my supply came back.

ps. my pump is a spectra s2 & it has been amazing! & I also have a mom cozy for my wearable pump, which has been a game changer as a working mom.
