Easy Expression Hands-Free Pumping Bustier Bra

It’s especially fun when Random.org happens to pick a winner who can really benefit from the prize — and that winner is commenter #20 Jennifer B, who said:

I am pregnant with my second child, and I would sooo love having one of these. I thought about getting one when I was nursing my 2 year old, but I wasn’t working at the time, and we didn’t have the money for one. I had a lot of issues with insufficient supply, and needed to pump, pump, pump all day long, in addition to nursing and supplementing with formula. I would have given anything to win one of these bras back then- to be able to actually do something else while pumping would have been great! Not to mention when I returned to school and trying to pump in the car- not fun at all, trying to hold onto the pump, adjust dials, etc. I am praying that I don’t have the issues with nursing my second child, but if I need to pump a lot again, this will save so much of my sanity, to be able to pump AND tend to a newborn and toddler at the same time! Thanks for the opportunity!

Congratulations Jennifer on winning and on your pregnancy! Please email me by Tuesday, August 18, 2009, with the bra size and style (halter or bustier) you would like and please include your home mailing address. Also, since you mentioned your struggle with low milk supply the first time around, I hope you’ll pick up a copy of the very helpful book The Breastfeeding Mother’s Guide to Making More Milk.
