Show them how special they are with these thoughtful gift ideas for nursing moms. This Mother’s Day, give the gift of making breastfeeding a little bit easier, more comfortable, or memorable with these special gift ideas for nursing moms.
Haakaa Generation 2 Silicone Breast Pump with Suction Base – $20.99
The Haaka is a truly ingenious invention. Most people don’t realize that while a baby feeds on one breast, it’s super common for milk to flow out of the other side. With the Haaka, that liquid gold isn’t destined to become a mere stain on mom’s shirt. The Haaka uses natural suction to act as a breast pump, gently extracting the breastmilk so mom can save it for later. This not only saves milk from being wasted, it can also help save mom a ton of time and effort if she’s supplementing her baby’s feedings with pumped milk. Especially for working moms who want to build up a stash of breast milk early on, the Haaka is a game changer.
