Let me start by saying: breastfeeding is beautiful—but it's not always easy. As a mom of two, I nursed each of my babies for 18+ months. That’s 36+ months of nursing, pumping, leaking, and learning how to care for my little ones while still showing up for myself. If you’re starting your breastfeeding or pumping journey, first of all, you’ve got this. And second, do yourself a favor and stock up on Lansinoh—especially their Disposable Nursing Pads and Breastmilk Storage Bags.
Nursing Pads That Actually Work
Let’s talk about leaks. They happen—on the couch, at the grocery store, during meetings (yes, that meeting). I learned early on that not all nursing pads are created equal. What I love about Lansinoh Disposable Nursing Pads is that they’re soft, breathable, and seriously absorbent. I’m talking about pads that absorb 20x their weight, which sounds like overkill until you're three months postpartum, running on caffeine, and suddenly feel that all-too-familiar warmth seeping through your shirt. Trust me, you’ll be grateful for the super absorbency.
What’s more, they stay in place. I didn’t have time to readjust every few hours. With two kids, my hands were constantly full (usually with a diaper, a bottle, or a toy someone had to bring to bed). These pads stayed put and kept me dry and confident, even on the days I forgot to look in the mirror before leaving the house.
Pumping? Freezing? Lansinoh's Got You
Whether you’re heading back to work or just trying to build a stash for date night (or a nap—remember naps?), Lansinoh Breastmilk Storage Bags were my go-to. They’re easy to use, durable, and lay flat in the freezer, which means you can actually fit more milk in less space. I had a little freezer milk fortress by month three, and it felt like winning the lottery every time I pulled one out.
Pairing the Storage Bags with the Disposable Nursing Pads just makes sense. It’s a starter bundle that takes care of both sides of the experience: the milk you save and the leaks you stop. If you’re a first-time mom, it’s the kind of thing you don’t think about until you need it. And then, believe me—you need it.
A Few Final Words from a Mama Who's Been There
Breastfeeding is a journey, and it looks different for everyone. Some days it feels like a peaceful bonding moment, other days it feels like a full-time job. But the right products make a world of difference, and Lansinoh was there for me every single time.
If you’re starting out, or somewhere in the middle, take it from a mom who nursed for a total of three years: give yourself some grace, a good nursing bra, and Lansinoh. You’ll be glad you did.
With love and support,
A Tired (But Happy) Mom of Two
