Love Beyond Moi TLB Giveaway

Presenting:

The Leaky Boob‘s

Valentine’s Day Giveaway:

“For the Love of… Love!”

 

Valentine’s Day may be our favorite commercial holiday.  Underneath the shiny red packaging, the chocolates, the flowers, and the expectations, it’s a celebration of Love.  And not just romantic love, important as that is.  On Valentine’s Day, we celebrate the love we have for our children and for our friends too, and the love our children have for each other and for us, and of course, our love of Love!

Once you become a parent you really understand love beyond yourself and beyond what you get out of it.  In the first year, breastfeeding often plays a vital role in developing that parent/child bond of love.  Moving first beyond yourself, and beyond your partner, taking them with you to new experiences together, beyond the known, and way beyond breastfeeding, where do you find information and support beyond TLB?  Jessica and I explore the challenges beyond breastfeeding on our other website: beyondmoi.com and to celebrate this Valentine’s Day we are bringing TLB and BeyondMoi together for the first time.  In honor of this event and our involvement in MommyCon (see below), we have each written an article about sex after baby, one on each website.  Jessica’s is here, and Jeremy’s (The Piano Man) is here.

This Valentine’s Day, we thought we would spread the love to The Leaky Boob community by facilitating a huge giveaway to demonstrate the love and appreciation we have for our sponsors and our followers.  The Leaky Boob community continues to be a place where breastfeeding support and encouragement can be offered for free, and where the normalization of breastfeeding feels like a real possibility through the sharing of information, experiences and the growing network we are all helping to create.  Perhaps this giveaway would be more aptly named: “For the Love of… Breastfeeding!”  But we know that breastfeeding itself is an act of love, so we’ll stick to a celebration of love.

Below is a list of some of our generous TLB sponsors, with information on what they are contributing to this giveaway, and links to other promotions they are having.  Below that, you will find instructions on how to enter the giveaway.  By the way, we’ve decided that it would be fun to lump all the prizes into one Grand Prize for a single winner!  Just wait until you see all the loot being offered.  We will also have a small, but charming, second place prize.  Before you scroll down to check it out, there is one more very important thing you need to know: due to the large number of sponsors participating in this giveaway, and each of their shipping restrictions, we have decided that this giveaway will be for people living in the U.S. only.  I apologize if this restricts you from possibly winning this giveaway.  The U.S. is simply the one single place for shipping that all of these sponsors have in common.  Please, U.S. entries only.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

The Dairy Fairy’s Magical Giveaway

TDF_SigStack_Coral_RGB

Some of us know we are destined to be mothers, and from a young age Emily Ironi knew she wanted a family.  So when she turned 40 and was still single, Emily realized that she had to take matters into her own hands.  With the help of IVF and donor sperm she became a lucky mother to an adorable girl named Arden.  Emily vowed that she would never complain, be the best mother she could be and try to support other breastfeeding mothers.

Not long after the arrival of Arden, Emily gave birth to her second “baby”, The Dairy Fairy.  A company with a goal to beautifully help mothers provide breast milk to their babes.  According to Emily, the Leaky Boob was a great source of support during her breastfeeding journey and so it only seems natural to share the nursing and pumping bra that she developed – the “Arden” bra – with fellow Leakies.  The Arden was created  so that nursing mothers could more easily multitask, efficiently and beautifully.  

ImageTLB:  What inspired you to start The Dairy Fairy?

Emily:  My daughter Arden, of course.  She has been the inspiration for everything I do.   She waltzed into my life on February 10, 2012.  At the time, I owned a luxury handbag business and was working from home.  I quickly realized that it took serious juggling between the unfortunate daily pumping, keeping my biz running, and my daughter happily nourished.  And I was stunned by the options for moms who wanted  or needed  to pump AND nurse.  I was spending at least an hour a day changing in and out of nursing and pumping bras.  This was time I just didn’t have to spare.  And I thought that there had to be some solution that was more flattering to a woman whose body had just gone through some major changes.  After some research, I realized that I just had to solve this problem and The Dairy Fairy was born, 6 months after Arden.

BW Black frontTLB:  What would you like TLB readers to know about your nursing bra?

Emily:  If there’s one takeaway about the Arden nursing bra, it’s that it multitasks as much as moms do.  It can be a nursing bra, and it’s also a hands-free pumping bra.  On top of that, it’s adjustable.  Each side can be closed on one of the 5 links, which gives you the ability to tighten or loosen the fit based on your fullness level.  When I pumped 4-6oz from my breast, I could literally feel the empty space in my nursing bra.  Or, when I was engorged, I felt like I was busting out of the top.  And since each side is independent, it’s also perfect for moms like me, with disproportionately sized breasts (my leftie was a C, and the righty was a B).  So I wanted to create a perfect fit for all moms, regardless of the size and shape of their breasts (the Arden is sized XS-XL and covers 32A all the way to a 42G).

And because each side can be used independently, you can even nurse on one side and pump on the other, which helps with simultaneous feeding and stockpiling.

But the biggest task that the Arden fulfills is that it’s beautiful.  It IS the kind of bra you want to wear all day.  It’s flattering and comfortable and doesn’t make you feel like it’s a hospital mammary contraption.  My body was never going to be the same, but that didn’t mean I had to stop feeling and looking attractive.

BW Blush pumpingTLB:  What is the inspiration behind your name?

Emily:  It took a lot of brainstorming to end up with The Dairy Fairy.  I wanted something memorable, catchy, and a bit tongue in cheek.  It’s not meant to be literal, Fairies don’t really exist! (or do they?).

At the end of the day, it had to fit me, and my humor and sensibilities.

TLB:  What is your favorite breastfeeding or pumping  tip?

Emily:  When Arden would get a little fussy, or didn’t want to latch, it was always  helpful to put a little milk on my nipple… it definitely woke up her appetite.  I also sang a little ‘breastfeeding song’ that I made up, that basically went “milky milky milky, milky milky milky” (to the tune of itsy bitsy spider).  So when I started to sing the song, she knew it was feeding time, and now that she’s a toddler I still give her that as a cue that it’s time for some milk.

I tried to nurse on demand as much as possible, but when I had to pump, I found it very useful to carry sample or travel size bottles of dishwashing liquid so I could clean my flanges on the spot, rather than carry dirty equipment around.

We’re a company built not only on providing moms with reliable and comfortable breastfeeding products but we’re also a company that sees the value in partnering with communities like The Leaky Boob, to provide essential mother to mother support. As a business that was started by a mom who struggled with breastfeeding her son, Rumina Nursingwear strives to offer products that will help moms reach their breastfeeding goals. In creating Rumina products we always keep mom and baby in mind. From making sure baby has full skin-to-skin contact with mom while nursing to providing essential breast health with soft, stretchable fabrics. In our products and partnerships, we try to never forget what moms need in order to reach their goals: great products and a strong support group.”

TLB:  Rumina’s Hands-Free Pump&Nurse bra is such a versatile and comfortable top.  Let’s go behind the scenes, and talk about what goes into the making of a Rumina product.  Where do you start?

Dawn:  It takes a lot to produce Rumina products but in the beginning it’s really just getting on the sewing table and piecing things together. You need to take your vision from in your head to the physical form. When you can actually see it, feel it and can try it on, that’s the first place you see what areas need to be improved on or changed. Pieces that seem like they would be easy on paper sometimes become the hardest aspects. The 2nd place where there is a lot of work is: the fit!  Women’s bodies are all unique and all the differences in a pregnant and newly postpartum mom are amazingly challenging. Trying to figure out how to accommodate all the differences took a few years from idea to placing our first production order of the Hands-Free Pump&Nurse Tank. We learned a lot about sewing, fabrics, and manufacturing and we’re still learning!

TLB:  How long does it take to produce an item?

Dawn:  From the concept phase to actual production of the tank it took about 3 years, with the bra it has been about 2 years. After you get past the concept phase and you have the production pattern, the next hurdle is sourcing the quantity of materials needed.  Materials and fabrics are very important for us and this has been a very difficult process.  Once all the pieces are in the hands of your factory, it is about 8 weeks to produce in the US. If we produce the item off-shore it can take about 6 months. So we really have to plan our production schedule to keep our products in stock.

TLB:  How do you determine what you will or won’t make?

Amanda:  Unfortunately a lot of it has to do with our cash flow right now. We have a lot of ideas but can only focus on one at a time due to the costs involved. To figure out which idea to go ahead and start producing we have to determine how much demand there is, how long it will take in the concept phase and how much financial resources it will take. It takes a lot to produce Rumina products because of our patented design. You basically have to build everything around the patented hands-free pumping design, which sometimes limits what we can develop and constrains the creative design of the product at times.

TLB:  Is the creative and production process ever difficult or even explosive between the two of you?  

Amanda:  Haha, we’re sisters, anything can get explosive at times. But really, the creative and production process is actually not an area of contention between us. My sister does the majority of that piece. I support her with feedback, ideas and what I’m hearing from moms and retailers but she handles all the steps for the most part. I focus on the marketing and sales of the garments, so we really don’t butt heads too often.

TLB:  Tell us a bit about your new Crossover Bra!

Amanda:  We’re so excited for our Crossover Bras! We’ll have two options in the near future, a Relaxed fit and a Classic fit. The Relaxed Hand-Free Pump&Nurse Bra will be ideal for moms during their pregnancy and early postpartum. It will be made with a soft jersey knit, to not irritate sensitive breasts and nipples and great to wear as a sleep bra. It’s also stretchable enough to adjust during engorgement. Rumina’s Classic Hands-Free Pump&Nurse Bra will be more moderate support, great for all day wear to the office, for play or just out and about. Both allow moms to nurse with full skin-to-skin contact with baby and pump hands-free confidently with Rumina’s unique patented design.

TLB: Anything new that you’re looking at coming out with?

Amanda: We’re thrilled to be offering colors soon! We’ve had tons of moms request more variety of colors. We’re going to offer colors first in the Relaxed Bra, look for Rumina Red around December. Nude and Chocolate will be offered in the Classic Bra and Tank hopefully in early 2014. We’re going to keep colors coming! We anticipate every 3 months coming out with a new color to choose from. We also hope to continue to develop a Plus Size Hands-Free Pump&Nurse option.
