Now that our breast milk has come in, basketballs have nothing on us (or stability balls for that matter).
And while, according to our wise midwife, it may help us to stuff a few cold cabbage leaves into our bra cup, we’ve opted to reach for Booby Treats ($19.95) instead. Made by a Newmarket mom of two, Jennifer Sliwinski, these flax-seed filled pillows can be used warm or cold to help with engorgement. We adore its breast-friendly design (sort of like a heavy lifesaver), which allows for maximum comfort during the most uncomfortable times (like, say, a bad bout of mastitis when the wee one has an ear infection. Yikes!).
Now we can feel taken care of, no matter what grief “the sisters” give us. See you later, cabbage leaves.
