Breastfeeding Supplies - Breastfeeding Support
Breastfeeding makes sense. Breastfeeding is the only
means of infant feeding that provides the complete physical and emotional
nutrition your baby needs. But the benefits of breastfeeding don't stop with the
baby. Breastfeeding bonds the mother and child and creates in other children a
healthy and correct attitude toward the female breast. Breastfeeding is
far less expensive than using artificial milks and much less stressful on every
member of the family.
We are dedicated to helping mothers experience the natural joy and fulfillment
breastfeeding brings, and to giving children the purist and most beneficial
beginning to their lives. We have been helping
families breastfeed since 1986. Breastfeeding is our business, but we find
our greatest reward in hearing breastfeeding success stories and knowing that we
had a small part (and sometimes a big part) in bettering lives through the
beautiful art of breastfeeding.
Our midwives and our IBCLC certified Lactation Consultant have the experience and expertise to assist you with your breastfeeding and birthing needs. Our customer service staff of caring moms (and a few future caring moms) will be happy to help with your ordering. You may order through our secure online server or by calling toll free (888) 398-7987. We usually ship within one business day. If you live in the Seattle area, visit our Birth and Baby store near the Alderwood Mall (a link to directions is at the bottom of the page).
| Breastfeeding
Bras It is quite possible that we have the largest selection of nursing bras in the world - we do not quite know why. We stock over 32 different styles (14 brands) in sizes 32A to 48J. Anything larger may be special ordered. |
| Breastfeeding
Aids You won't need a truck-load of gadgets in order to breastfeed successfully, but some of these items can enhance your breastfeeding experience. Other items are solutions for particular breastfeeding differences and difficulties. Included are: nursing pillows, nursing stools, breast pads, breast shells and shields, feeding systems, skin care products, and much more. |
| Breast
Pumps We offer a wide variety of breast pumps, from inexpensive manual breast pumps to hospital grade electric breast pumps. We also carry the new Whittlestone Expresser, a new concept in breast pump design. We have been very impressed with it so far, not only for general use but in cases of flat or inverted nipples as well. For very occasional use, a manual or mini-electric breastpump will usually be fine. Avoid the cheap pumps often sold at drugstores and mass market distributors. They can be difficult and painful to use and are often ineffective, resulting in frustration and weaning. Our breastpump selection is refined from years of experience. Our IBCLC certified lactation consultant offers free e-mail consultations on the proper and effective use of breastpumps purchased from us. If you should chose to buy a breastpump elsewhere, be sure the seller has the knowledge and experience to back up the product. |
| Breastfeeding
Fashions This area is still expanding and we carry much more in the store than we currently list on the internet. Please let us know at PJ@breastisbest.com, 425 775-5391, or (888) 398-7987 (toll free) if we can help you find what you are looking for. |
| Breastfeeding
Nightwear and Camisoles Nighttime wear for the breastfeeding mother, and nursing camisoles. |
| Maternity
Items If you are still pregnant we have several items that will help you to be more comfortable! |
| Slings The baby sling is a great attachment parenting tool for moms and dads. Most babies love the security and closeness they provide. Some kinds are also very useful for breastfeeding on the go. They are much easier to figure out then a front-pack type carrier. |
| Baby
Layette These are a few of the most useful products we have found that every baby needs. They have to meet my tough standards of being useful, practical, a good value and necessary. A few things get by with just being plain cute! |
| Skin
Care Our skin is one of the largest organs in our body. It has some very important functions. We need to treat it well to help us stay healthy. Start your baby with a good program to retain and protect that beautiful skin they are born with. |
| Healthcare This being a sensitive subject to many parents, especially those with children that rely heavily on some type of medication or another, we had a desire to provide to you some of the best herbal remedies we were able to find. Alternative healing and remedies appeal to more and more people as we learn further of the damaging side effects of many medications. We hope you will be pleased with our choices. NOTE: None of these statements are approved by the FDA and are not meant as a diagnosis or medical treatment. Check with you healthcare practitioner with any further questions, especially if you are pregnant or nursing. |
| Books
and Tapes or CDs Books and Booklets for your own reading information. Audio tapes that every mother needs - great gift idea! |
| 'Let
Down' Sale We will be "letting down" the price each week on these items until they are gone! The sizes listed are the only ones available. Sorry, No Returns! |
