They are like cool things for the nips - they were ahhmazing for the first few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1812752 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 20:20:17 +0000 PinkElephant 1812752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how about a nursing cover? IF she has another older child, she may have to feed this bub while out and about. The Peanut Shell and Bebe Au Lait make nice ones, I think you can get both online from Target. They probably run about $20 though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1812724 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 20:00:20 +0000 cmomma17 1812724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: such an amazing and generous gift already! But if you had to add something .... Drying rack for pump/bottle parts, nursing bra, pumping bra, breastfeeding book, one handed snacks like granola bars! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1812720 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 19:55:37 +0000 Emsmems 1812720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone! I think I'll order some nipple cream and call it good. I was thinking about a hands free pump bra but I'm not sure what size she would be. Plus DH thinks I've spent enough ;) I think I'll make her some snacks/lactation cookies when baby arrives and I go see her :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1812024 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:19:23 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1812024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got Earth Mama Angel Love cream and tea at Target the other day. I really liked my Lansinoh gel pads. Maybe a comfy sleep nursing bra? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1812016 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:13:09 +0000 fussygal 1812016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nipple cream and maybe some lactation cookies? I usually make them, but I've seen them for sale online, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811936 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:38:55 +0000 Mrs. Rabbit 1811936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ditto to the MotherLove nipple cream. it's my absolute favorite!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811928 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:33:15 +0000 lamariniere 1811928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely nipple cream.<br /> Lactation tea is big here, however I don't remember seeing it in the US. But maybe you can find it on amazon or somewhere else? Or lactation cookies? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811923 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:30:16 +0000 Weagle 1811923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nipple butter, Mom's Milk Tea, and some snacks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811918 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:29:01 +0000 rattles 1811918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked Lansinoh gel pads in the first few days, and a pack of straws is a cheap but practical addition. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811887 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:15:02 +0000 lady grey 1811887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, you already got a lot, you're very generous! I second nipple cream and snacks. Water bottle too. Maybe you could make up a little basket for her to keep at her "nursing station". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811882 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:12:29 +0000 lawbee11 1811882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Will she be pumping at home or work? I'd get her a Simple Wishes Hands-Free bra.</p> <p>Oh duh I saw that she registered for Medela stuff so I assume yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811879 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:09:55 +0000 Emsmems 1811879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: @Mrs. High Heels: How did I forget nipple cream? Duh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811863 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:06:09 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1811863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nipple cream! I really liked MotherLove. What about some earth Mama Angel Baby teas? They have a variety pack for breastfeeding moms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811853 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:03:37 +0000 swedishfish 1811853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Snacks! Earth Mama Angel Baby nipple butter </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-feeding-themed-gift#post-1811851 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:03:11 +0000 Emsmems 1811851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am going to a baby shower this weekend for a second time mom. She had her first 7 years ago when she was young, so I know she has gear. </p> <p>She registered for a few breast feeding related items so I got everything on there but want to add a few more little things. This is what I got so far:</p> <p>Registery items:<br /> -Boppy<br /> -Medela valves/membranes/flanges set<br /> -Medela pump n save bags<br /> -reusable breast pads</p> <p>Non-registry:<br /> -water bottle</p> <p>What small things can I add? Maybe $20 for anything else. I'm not positive if she breast fed her first, so I don't know if she didn't register for other stuff because she knows she doesn't want it or may already have it? Should I just call it good with what I got? </p>
