ATTENTION Pumping Moms!!! Please read. FREE BREASTFEEDING SUPPLIES. I have breastfed three babies. My sister and I combined have a TON of breastfeeding supplie...s. What we have would possibly be helpful for a working mom or an exclusive pumping mom. But some stuff we have is for any breastfeeding mom. We have a Spectra pump, 2 Medela pumps, and about a zillion Kiinde brand breastmilk bags, and some other traditional breastmilk storage bags. Plus more! I’ve been a full time working mom, a stay at home mom, and now a working at home while kids are home mom. It’s all hard. Breastfeeding is hard. I have pumped and fed in all shorts or places. If you need any of this style of stuff, let me know: A second pump to leave at work or in your car so you don’t have to lug one in and out each and everyday.... let me know. Need a box or 10 or a case of Kiinde brand bags? Let me know. Need a Haaka? Let me know. Need some extra bottles? Let me know. We aren’t charging. But Jeremiah is sick of having CASES of breastmilk bags in the back of our mini van. Please share this post with pumping moms. I need to get rid of this stuff and pumps cannot be donated. Kiinde is an expensive brand / type of pumping system and we would love to get that stuff to a mom who would love the convenience of the system. The Kiinde supplies are (in my opinion) perfect for someone with an over supply, working full time, or exclusively pumping.

Helpful tips to know or share when having baby or going to meet a new baby! Unless mama needs a shower, the most helpful things are listening and helping out around the house. Remember that baby is still 100% dependant on mama and they are a unit!
