2016 Infant Feeding Guide with Product Reviews + Giveaway

by The Leaky Boob Community

The CDC says that the number one reason for women who intend to breastfeed but don’t end up reaching their breastfeeding goals is lack of support. Support goes a long way in making a difference in our feeding journeys. From familial, social, medical, and employment structures, there are many ways we can find and experience support. With story sharing, information sharing, and resource sharing, The Leaky Boob is dedicated to making support for the infant feeding journey easier to find. It may be breastfeeding that brings us all together but through support and finding community we stick around for the connection and rally behind the boob, bottle, formula, and solids. Our infant feeding guide pulls together information, resources, product reviews, and tips from our community to offer that support we’re committed to.

Not much is really needed for feeding a baby in those early days, provided everything goes smoothly. But since it doesn’t always go smoothly, sometimes we need some products to support the journey. Plus, even when it does go smoothly, there are some things that help make it easier and more fun.

After flipping through our guide, be sure to enter to win every product featured in our guide this year!

    My favorite product is the apparel, it makes NIP so much easier and convenient. To win that would be amazing because those things can be very expensive and I have limited wardrobe geared towards breastfeeding. Love all of them though, what a great giveaway!!!! 😊

  31. Marnie Bergstrom says

    I am a foster mother a frankly, post menopausal so breastfeeding is no longer in the cards for me. I foster drug exposed infants and most are failure to thrive and infantile anorexia so I would love and get so much use out of the Hatch smart changing pad. I would appreciate winning that more than you could imagine!

  32. I love the ring sling!

  33. I love the think baby complete feeding set. Think longevity! Can be used for such a long time especially with the stainless steel vs plastic constantly breaking down with every wash and eventually leaking who knows what in the food/drink.

  34. Alexis Cuffy says

    I love the Seamless Handsfree Pump and Nurse Tank and the Plum Organics Baby Food! I def. need a hands free option for pumping with an infant and toddler and I fed my daughter Plum Organics products and loved the quality and def. plan to give my son their products!

    It’s hard to choose a bundle since I will both be breastfeeding and pumping when I go back to work but I’m hoping to be pumping less with a new work schedule- so I would love to have the breastfeeding bundle! I’ve been eyeing some of these products since finding out we’re expecting again and it would be so helpful to have some better support this time around.

  63. Jennifer Leach says

    Thank you so Nch for this giveaway! I have been on both sides of the nursing aisle, pumping and bottle feeding when our babies where in the NICU and nursing our little ones after their bottle days. Earth Mama products are amazing and made my last nursing experience so much better. Baby wearing has been a life saver. Thank you for supporting all moms feeding their babies breast milk in whatever way that works best for their baby.

  64. My favourite items in the guide is the nursing necklace and the BPA free feeding set, though everything looks amazing. It would be amazing to win either package.

  65. Thanks!

  66. The ergobaby nursing pillow is my favorite item in the guide.

  67. I really think the bundle with the Plum Organics foods would be great!

  68. My favorite product is the Juno Blu Nepenthe pump bag. I just went back to work and would so love this beautiful bag, instead of having to carry 17 other individual bags every day!

  69. the diaper bag!

  70. Nicole Turnbull says

    I love the Plum organics products. My little one loves the puffs and pouches!

  71. nicolthepickle says

    I like the Cake Maternity Rock Candy Nursing Bra.

  72. Heather Mikulskis says

    I love the teething necklace!

  73. Chelsey Bennett says

    I’d love to try the Savi Mom nursing nightgown. I need something like that!

  74. I’ve been breastfeed 2 months on Sunday i love having the leaky boob to go to for questions and support

  75. Samantha Guenther says

    Love the earth mama products. A lot of these brands I have yet to get to even see so each one seems pretty awesome really.

  76. I am most excited to potentially win (everything!!!!) I am a full time nursing momma to a five week old baby, and I can use all the support I can get! This would all help me so tremendously, I am a stay at home mom and we survive off one small income from my fiancé working. If I had to pick one item specifically I think it would be the nursing pillow from the catalog, my neck and back hurt so much from hunching over every 1-2 hours, I’m actually nursing as I wrote this!

  77. The baby food pouches are the best!

  78. Kathryn Heck says

    This guide is wonderful and the giveaway is great!

  79. Kathryn Heck says

    My favorite item is the nursing shirt. You cannot have too many.

  80. I would like the teething necklace!

  81. Melissa Ferris says

    Most looking forward to the baby smart changing pad!

  82. I would love the Sakura ring sling. I loved wearing my older kids but never had a ring sling. Looking forward to this!

  83. melisa klink says

    I think everything looks amazing. I’m really interested about the apparel. As its great to see bra and shirt options for nursing.

  84. I like all, the breast bras, and pump

  85. My favourite product is the ChompyChicChewlery. I can’t believe how awesome having teething jewelry helps with nursing. My baby loves to hang on to it while she nurses, saving my face and breast from tiny claw marks! It also helps when I need someone else to take care of her; they wear my necklace while they give her a bottle and it helps her take the bottle better. I have a Lalabu shirt too which is amazing for feeding new babies in and I was surprised to find that I can still pop my 8 month old in it for an easy feed when I wear it out.

    Is this giveaway only open to USA?

  86. Gisselle Pantoja says

    I believe the breastfeeding and apparel bundle would be wonderful! I’m always worried abouty milk supply. It’s nice to have a necklace that will distract the baby. Also cloth is the best way to go instead of the disposable nursing pads. And as for the apparel, it’s so hard finding something to wear that you are able to nurse and look good in.

  87. I like the feeding apparel!

  88. The Thinkbaby: The Complete BPA-Free Feeding Set is my favorite !

  89. What great recommendations, I love that breastfeeding bundle by Earth Mama Angel Baby!!

  90. I’d be most excited for the Sakura Bloom ring sling!

  91. Nicole Maxwell says

    My favorite product from the guide that I’ve actually tried would be the Bambooies Nursing Pads. They’re so soft and feel great against your skin. My favorite product that I haven’t tried but want to would be the Cake Maternity: Rock Candy Nursing Bra. I love how smooth and seemless it looks, perfect for under a fitted t-shirt.

  92. Hatch Baby Smart Changing Table is my favorite

  93. Would love to try Earth mama angel baby!

  94. So many things look amazing. I really want to try reasonable breast pads this time.

  115. My fave item is the pretty pump bag. I would love something like that!

  120. Chambray ring sling!

  121. My favorite thing is the nursing clothes! I also need a little help..
    I’m having trouble getting my 2 month old to stay latched on. She didn’t have this problem until about a month and a half old. She will nurse fine for about 5 mins and then she starts wiggling and moving her head back and fourth. She opens her mouth to try again but does the same thing a few seconds after nursing. I have to keep fighting her to get her to eat. I’m scared she’s not eating enough.

  122. Evenflo, so need it!

  123. Emmeline Stoddard says

    My baby loves Plum Organics Little Yums. I also liked the Sakura Bloom ring sling. It looks comfortable and convenient.

  125. I would LOVE to have a Lalabu!!!
