A Mother's Boutique GIVEAWAY!

When I became pregnant, I decided that I wanted to breastfeed my new baby girl. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I wanted to try. I knew that I would need to do things differently with her right from the start than I did with my son, so I started researching all things breastfeeding. I looked into breast pumps, nursing covers, and even clothing made for the nursing mother. That was when I came upon a now good friend, Judy ( @MommyNews on Twitter) who is the owner of an online store called A Mother’s Boutique.

Judy runs a well-oiled machine over at A Mother’s Boutique, with a huge variety of only the best when it comes to the needs of the pregnant of breastfeeding Mom. From top-of-the-line Breast Pumps, to Nursing Wear, to Slings and Carriers, she’s got it all. She carries brands like Ameda, Bravado, the Maya Wrap, and Japanese Weekend, just to name a few. And with her great prices and amazing selection, you will be able to find exactly what you are looking for.

When Judy heard I was planning on breastfeeding, she graciously sent me something amazing to try, The Body Tank by Annee Matthew, a revolutionary combination of a tank, a corset, and a nursing top, all in one. And I must say it is all of that, and much more! It was the first thing I put on in the hospital after the birth of my daughter, and I wore it all day and night long. It is super comfy, made accessing the breast, even at 3am, easy and effortless. Without the added snaps and clasps found on most nursing tops, this tank is top notch. The added little bonus is tummy control it offers, every little bit helps in making a new mom feel cute and stylish, and this top did just that. Now in these following days since leaving the hospital, I have also discovered the added support made for the breasts of a nursing mom, yes, support is VITAL!

Not only can you find all this awesome stuff at A Mother’s Boutique, but Judy also has an amazing blog, Mommy News & Views, where she talks about all sorts of breastfeeding and parenting topics that are important to all of us mama’s out there. Keep an eye on Judy’s blog as it continues to grow and flourish with valuable information that is sure to not be missed.

Judy can be found on Twitter under the name @MommyNews. She is a valuable asset to the breastfeeding community as well as an amazing friend. Contact her with your nursing questions and I am sure she will be more than happy to assist you.
