When I have baby, I plan on breastfeeding. Are there any specific items I will need? I already have breastpads and will be ordering my breast pump through my insurance.

A cover if you think you need one for out in public. Also, some plan on how to clean/sterilize pump parts.

So a bunch of people recommended it and then I researched it and all the uses for it you can even use it for the babies cradle cap I heard amazing things about it but I'm a ftm so I haven't personally tried it yet !! But I bet other preggies can give more insite

@babybermea, is it better than nipple cream? I hate the way nipple cream smells.

You can use coconut oil instead of a nipple cream :)

Boopy pillow is a must also.

I haven't found a brand that I really got attached to. I get lanolin free nipple butter from Wal-Mart. I haven't tried anything else but it helped

@mommaheathco, breast milk storage bags is a must. I pump several times daily in addition to breastfeeding Ethan. Once I pump I put in bags and freeze. Im not bottle feeding the breast milk because I've decided no bottles, paci till at least 6 weeks to avoid nipple confusion. Good luck hun

I'd recommend a boppy, your arms can tire out really easily
