Breast pump,

a precious help while

breastfeeding

Pumping your milk has many advantages and flexibility is one of them. Breast pumps are a great support during

breastfeeding but also a good way to extend this period.

if your breasts are congested

to relieve sore nipples

to feed your baby who can’t directly be breastfed (premature, etc…)

to empty your breast if baby isn’t hungry

to create a milk storage along with breastfeeding

to store milk in the freezer in case of an emergency

to allow someone else to feed baby with your breast milk.

Going back

to work

With a little organization and support from your close family, breastfeeding and going back to work can be

compatible. Here is an efficient method: use a manual or electric breast pump!

To make that transition even easier, start using the breast pump a few weeks be-

fore going back to work to start changing your habits. For example, during

breastfeeding, pump the milk of the free breast: it will save you some

time. You can also pump an hour after breastfeeding or when

baby eats less often or even when you feel the need to. Once

you pumped your milk, please read carefully the conservation

rules listed in the section “Store your milk”.

Once you’re back to work, try to keep a regular schedule:

pump your milk according to the feeding schedule your

baby was on. It is important to find a quiet, comfortable

and private place to pump your milk where you won’t

be interrupted. Contact your employer to find the

best and most appropriate place and to accom-

modate your schedule.

into a natural

comfort baby bottle

Designed by newborn experts, the Natural Comfort teat respects your baby’s natural

suction:

its unique asymmetrical and physiological shape

reproduces the shape of

your breast to get as close as possible to breastfeeding.

This teat is easily accepted by 95% of babies,

even breastfed*.

Weaning

Your baby is growing up quickly and towards the end of the 4th month, milk isn’t enough to satisfy his nutritional

needs. It’s time to switch to new food, even though milk will stay the basis of his diet during the first year. During

the first few weeks of diversification, mashed vegetables or fruits will replace part of a bottle or breastfeeding.

Gradually, they will replace milk entirely.

Diversification occurs through different steps: at 4 months old, only a few fruits and vegetables suit your baby’s

diet. At 6 months old, baby will discover meat and fish and at 8 months old, baby will try starchy food. Every

child is different and you’ll naturally adapt yourself to your baby’s schedule!

If you have any question regarding your child’s nutrition, the best person to contact is your doctor or

pediatrician.
