Breastfeeding: the essentials for a good start
Breastfeeding is a unique journey that deserves to be experienced with serenity and comfort. From the very first days, being well-prepared makes things easier, builds confidence and helps you get off to a good start. At 23 Mai Paris , we've selected the really useful equipment to accompany your first moments of breastfeeding, while remaining true to our ambition: to make you feel beautiful, supported and at ease.
Essentials for getting your baby settled in comfortably
A good start requires proper positioning. A nursing pillow or good support can improve your posture, relieve back pain, and make it easier for your baby to latch on.
A well-designed, comfortable, and easy-to-open nursing top that is well-designed, comfortable, and easy to open can also make a difference: it allows you to breastfeed gently and without embarrassment.
The support your breasts need
Breasts change rapidly after birth. An underwire-free nursing bra, easy to open with one hand, is a real ally. Absorbent nursing pads prevent the little inconveniences associated with leaks and ensure greater comfort in everyday life.
Storing, feeding, expressing: useful accessories
Depending on your breastfeeding plan, certain accessories may be useful:
-
A breast pump (manual or electric) can come in handy if you want to pass on the baton, pump milk or relieve your breasts.
-
Bottles or bags to store breast milk safely.
This equipment is not compulsory for all mothers, but can be integrated into a mixed breastfeeding project or when returning to work.
Clothing designed for breastfeeding
Beyond technical accessories, thinking about your wardrobe is also an act of kindness towards yourself. Choosing nursing tops or nursing sweaterswith discreet openings, soft fabrics, and cuts designed for maternity and breastfeeding means opting for a smoother, more elegant, and more comfortable experience.
