Breastfeeding

Anyone who has tried breast feeding knows in most cases it is not always as easy as it seems.
Sometimes it takes alot of patience and help.
Here I will go through some of the things that can help with your breast feeding problems.
I will show you the products tried and tested by breast feeding mums, including breastfeeding covers, breastfeeding pillows, breastfeeding tops and breastfeeding bras.
The only thing I won't tell you is how to breastfeed. That is best left to the experts I would recommend a lactation consultant in your area, your local maternity ward, or the Australian Breastfeeding Association.

To Start -

Booby Booster : A breastfeeding aid for woman with large breasts.

Booby Booster

Invented by a breastfeeding mum, this product attaches to your maternity bra and sits under the breast while feeding, supports the breast to stay in place.
A heavy breast can cause the nipple to drop. The breastfeeding sling helps avoid the nipple slipping out of the baby’s mouth while feeding, avoiding nipple damage and poor latch on.
http://www.boobybooster.com.au/
www.storkmaternity.com.au

Milk Bar Breastfeeding Pillow & Breastfeeding Pillow for twins












The Milk Bar is a nursing, pregnancy, travel or kids snuggle pillow. Supports baby's weight while feeding reducing neck, back and arm strain. Elevates baby's head to a comfortable level for feeding.

Adapts to all waist and chair shapes and has a zip-off cover for easy washing.

Single Milk Bar available in Pink/Sand, Choc/Sand & Blue/Sand.
Twin Milk Bar available in Choc/Sand.

Milk Bar Feeding Pillow Stork Maternity

Milkscreen test strips

We hope this helps you on your breasfeeding journey and if you have any other questions we would be more than happy to help you.

Milkscreen : Home Test for Alcohol in Breast Milk

Milkscreen Breast Milk Alcohol Test




In only two minutes, Milkscreen analyses breast milk for;

The presence of alcohol and provides you with a clear positive or negative reading
Allows Mums to celebrate a special occasion (anniversary, wedding) with confidence that their breast milk is safe for their baby
Innovative unique product providing 99% accuracy
Quality USA manufactured product
Available in packs of 8 tests
















Indispensable for all mothers who in a relaxed manner want to feed their baby in public: The minimonkey nursing cover. Put the cover over your baby when you want to feed your baby and look at your baby through the opening above. Privacy is guaranteed, because your surroundings cannot see your nursing baby or your bare breast. The nursing cover is also perfect for mothers who use a breast pump!

Breastfeed discreetly whilst watching the baby through the opening
The nursing cover
With the slightly raised, soft edge of the minimonkey nursing cover you can watch your nursing baby - but people around you see nothing! The nursing cover protects your baby and covers your upper body so that you don’t have to nurse openly. Many women find it annoying and distracting to breastfeed if other people are around. Minimonkey made its own ‘simple and smart’ design, especially for women who go for practical solutions. In addition, the minimonkey nursing cover is very easy to fold and carry.


Additional benefits
Although the nursing cover is primarily designed for breast-feeding, it is also a great solution for women who use a breast pump. Pumping often takes time, but with the nursing cover you no longer need to hide away in another room. An additional advantage of the nursing cover is that your baby can nurse quietly without being distracted by your surroundings. This makes the minimonkey nursing cover ideal for bottle fed babies as well.

Pumping discreet
Simple and smart
You simply cover your baby by draping the cover around your neck. Because of the light and airy material it’s very comfortable for your baby. Another handy detail are the two handy spit towels sewn into each corner for an easy access. At the front of the nursing cover you will find a pouch in which you can put little things, such as a dummy or wipes. After you are finished feeding your baby, you simply fold the nursing cover into the pouch which makes it very compact and easy to take along.



Spit towel nursing cover in pouch
The minimonkey nursing cover is made of 100% soft, breathable cotton
Breastfeeding Tops
are a must have for breastfeeding mums, they allow you to breast feed your baby discreetly and confortable wherever you are while still looking fantastic.Most breastfeeding tops are also suitable for maternity wear meaning you get more wear out of your wardrobe.
Petal Long Sleeve Nursing Top-Style N33
Comfortable and practical.
This breastfeeding top has a round neck with tucks, cross over petal shaped fronts that allows easy access for modest breastfeeding.
Long sleeves that will keep you warm through the cooler months in this soft fabric.
This uniquely designed garment is a favorite with expecting mum’s as it looks great whilst you are pregnant and is flattering to the tummy post pregnancy.
Wear it with one of our maternity jeans, pants or a skirt.
www.storkmaternity.com.au

When should I start wearing a maternity bra?

The Australian Breastfeeding Association information suggests that the breasts begin to prepare for your baby quite early in pregnancy, some woman will feel uncomfortable or will fully outgrow their usual bra sooner than others.
As a general rule most changes to the breast have occurred by around 16 weeks and this is a good time to be fitted for a new maternity bra, if you haven’t been already. Stork Maternity provides a professional and free bra fitting service in store.

Is it true I can’t wear and underwire bra?

Many women would prefer to wear an underwire bra but an underwire is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The reason for this is the changing size of your breasts. A rigid underwire or ill fitting bra can put pressure on already tender breasts and milkducts which may lead to blockages. When breastfeeding, the breasts increase and decrease in size and retained fluid during pregnancy can cause your breasts to swell in size. Underwire bras that have been outgrown can be uncomfortable and when the breast is fuller this pressure can lead to blocked (plugged) ducts and possibly in some cases infection (mastitis).

How does a maternity bra differ from a normal bra?

There are many different styles and designs of maternity bras available. A good maternity bra should have the following features.

* Extended hook and eye clips
* Drop feeding cups
* Wide diaphragm for support
* Soft cotton lining for comfort
* Inner sling for support inside the cup and to keep straps in place while feeding.
* No underwire

At Stork Maternity we offer the most trusted brands of maternity bra's and lingerie including HOTmilk, Lovable, Womama, Bendon and Berlei. We have a style, size and colour to suit everybody.

Will I get the same support from a maternity bra as an underwire?

Maternity bras are designed in such a way that you will get support from a well fitted maternity bra. When you are fitted for a maternity bra you should be able to adjust the fitting to accomodate further cup and diaphram size increases during the pregnancy and again when the milk comes in about day 3 after giving birth as well as have the option of decreasing the fitting as your body returns to your pre-pregnancy size.
Should I wear a bra to bed?

Wearing a bra to bed is a personal preference. Some women like to wear a bra to bed for support if they have tender breasts in the early weeks of the pregnancy and to hold breast pads in place when lactating. An alternative to this would be a feeding singlet with a supportive cup or shelf bra and nursing clips, making it much more comfortable and convenient to feed your new baby.

How many bras will I need?

During pregnancy it is recommended to have at least 2 bras, 1 lighter in color and one darker to go under any outfit. During breastfeeding 3-4 bras is ideal as your breasts may leak milk between feeds and you may need to change your bra more frequently than usual. Most women find that one on, one in the wash and one ready to go works well.

V2 Supporter - Pre Natal Cradle

During pregnancy, vulvar varicosities can occur for many reasons. Increased weight of the enlarged uterus sometimes creates pressure on veins in the pelvic area and interferes with the flow of blood returning from the legs. Naturally higher levels of estrogen promote growth, while increased progesterone tends to relax the smooth muscles of the vein walls. The relaxed veins can become distended and "pop out" as vulvar varicosities. Wearing the V2 supporter before rising in the morning, helps prevent excessive swelling of the vulvar veins.
The V2 Supporter provides clinically proven compression therapy

Recommended for:
  • Vulvar Varicosities (also used post sclerotherapy)
  • Lympedema
  • Perineal edema
  • Incontinence
  • External prolapsed bladder or uterus

The V2Supporter is:
  • Doctor recommended
  • Adjustable for maximum comfort and support
  • Safe, effective, and convenient
  • Soft, lightweight, and machine washable (line dry)

Frequently Asked Pregnancy & Breastfeeding Questions

When should I start buying maternity clothing?

As soon as you feel uncomfortable or find your wardrobe choices are dwindling. Sometimes as early as 12 weeks. Don’t settle for tracksuit pants or your husband’s shirts! Start with a couple of basic items such as pants or jeans and work it back with some tops in this seasons fashion colours. You can build up your maternity wardrobe as your pregnancy progresses, keeping in mind the season you will spend most of your pregnancy, as well as work clothing and if you have any formal engagements coming up in the months that you will be pregnant.
Stork Maternity has something for every occasion including, work, casual and evening wear.

I don’t look pregnant yet but my clothes feel too tight, can I just buy normal clothes a size larger?

It is a common mistake and huge ‘No No’ to purchase regular clothing in a size too big, unlike maternity clothes normal fashions do not have allowances for the growth of pregnancy, leaving tops too short and clingy and pants digging into your growing tummy.
Maternity clothing is carefully designed to flatter women throughout their pregnancies and beyond. Extra room is allowed for where you need it, not where you don’t.

I live in jeans; can I wear regular denim while pregnant?

Some women will be able to add a belly belt while their jeans are fitting everywhere but the waist, which is a great way to make your clothes last through a change of season. Further into your pregnancy it is well worth investing in a pair of maternity jeans that fit well, feel good and make you look fantastic. Stork Maternity stock a variety of jeans including straight leg and skinny leg as well as a variety of different waist styles depending on what is most comfortable for you.

What size maternity clothing do I need?

It is normal to increase 1-2 cup sizes in the bust and one size in the diaphragm and to grow a little in the hip and thigh areas. All maternity wear is especially designed to accommodate this growth so you will mostly choose your pre-pregnancy size. If you are more prone to putting on weight or expecting a multiple birth you may need to go up a size during your pregnancy. Don’t worry about the sizing on the tag, every manufacturer has a different sizing guide and fit so wear what looks good and feels great.

Will the clothes I buy fit throughout my pregnancy?

Maternity wear is specifically designed to adapt to your changing body. You will be able to start wearing your maternity wear as soon as the clothes you normally wear feel uncomfortable, right through your pregnancy and in the early days after giving birth until you are back into your usual clothes which can sometimes take several months.

I have a function coming up and I want to look fantastic, can I still wear an evening dress?

Thankfully the modern trend in maternity wear has shifted from the tent like dresses that women used to be stuck with. Stork Maternity offer a wide range of beautiful evening wear from long satin gowns to the LBD (little black dress).

When should I start wearing a maternity bra?

According to the Australian Breastfeeding Association the breasts begin to prepare for your baby quite early in pregnancy, some woman will feel uncomfortable or will fully outgrow their usual bra sooner than others.
As a general rule most changes to the breast have occurred by around 16 weeks and this is a good time to be fitted for a new maternity bra, if you haven’t been already. Stork Maternity provides a professional and free bra fitting service in store.

A rigid underwire can put pressure on already tender breasts. When breastfeeding, the breasts increase and decrease in size and retained fluid during pregnancy can cause your breasts to swell in size.

Will I get the same support from a Maternity Bra as an underwire?

Maternity bras are designed in such a way that you will get the same support from a beautiful maternity bra as you would your original underwire bra and you will be a lot more comfortable.

Should I wear a bra to bed?

Wearing a bra to bed is a personal preference. Some women like to wear a bra to bed for support and to hold breast pads in place. An alternative to this would be a feeding singlet with a supportive cup or shelf bra and nursing clips, making it much more comfortable and convenient.

How many bras will I need?

During pregnancy it is recommended to have at least 2 bras, 1 lighter and one darker to go under any outfit. During Breastfeeding you should have 3-4 bras as your breasts may leak milk and may need changing more frequently than usual.

How many cloth nappies will I need?

Generally a newborn baby will require 10-12 changes per day, after 3 months this will go down to 8-10 changes per day then after 6 months will settle down to 6-8 changes per day. Of course every baby is different and you may find you will need more or less changes.
To use modern cloth nappies part time it is recommended you have at least 10 nappies on hand, making sure you have back up for when you do a wash. And to use modern cloth nappies on a full time basis it is recommended you have 20 nappies. This will allow you to have a good stock of nappies as they grow. You may need to add extra to your collection as you go once you have settled into a pattern and you discover whether or not your baby is a heavy wetter. And don’t forget if you use a good quality modern cloth nappy they can then be used again on subsequent children.


What are the benefits of using a baby sling or carrier?

* Carrying your child in a sling or carrier may decrease a child’s cry by up to 50%, creating more time for smiles and giggles shared between parent and child
* Your newborn is snuggled in, safe from unwanted touches, shielded from germs and under the watchful eye of parents at all times
* Digestion is also improved with motion of movement between parent and child, this works wonders for the baby’s tummy, helping ease the discomfort of colic and reflux
* Amazingly language development is also encouraged as the child is on the level of adult conversation and eye contact.
* Mothers are more responsive to babies’ vocalizations, in turn the babies’ needs are met quickly and efficiently
* Say goodbye to tired arms and be hands free
* A sling makes breastfeeding in public easy and private
* Properly wearing a sling or carrier positions a baby in a way that supports their spine and promotes correct physical development

Following is some useful info for anyone who is considering using cloth nappies,
re-usable nappies, modern cloth nappies. whatever you would like to call them.
CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK ABOUT CLOTH NAPPIES
Modern Cloth Nappies
Today’s cloth nappies are not the nappies of our grandmother’s days. (MCN'S) Modern cloth nappies are easier to use and more comfortable for the baby.

Itti Bitti Nappies

Itti Bitti has a signature ultra trim fit, with a luxurious minkee outer in a fantastic colour range.
8 layers of highly absorbent bamboo to keep your baby dry.

Baby Beehinds

These fantastic nappies are an All in One with a twist. Made with a soft and stretchy outer, non pill suede cloth inner and sewn in soaker pad of 4 layers of microfiber.

This amount of waste creates nearly 150,000 cubic metres of land-fill.
