On January 22, 2011, I gave birth to my second baby, Samara. There was no question in my mind that I was going to breast feed. I nursed my son, Ari, now 3 1/2 years old, for 13 months, and I planned on doing the same for Samara. With both babies, I wanted the freedom to leave them with Wil or my parents, so I knew that owning a breast pump was essential.
For those of you who have pumped breast milk with an an electric pump, you know how tricky it can be. I remember pumping for Ari and I was totally uncoordinated. I would hold the pumps in place, my hands would get tired, it was really aggravating. That's why, when Danielle @ Momotics announced that she was giving away a Simple Wishes Pumping Bra on her Virtual Baby Shower, I was (pun intended) pumped! Sorry guys, I had to!
I entered Danielle's giveaway for the pumping bra. I didn't think I'd win. So I was completely shocked when I got an email from her telling me that I won the bra! Hooray!
Here's what The Simple Wishes Pumping Bra looks like:
This picture is from The Simple Wishes PR folk. I wish I had this woman's abs.
Danielle, thank you woman! You seriously rock. I love this bra. It makes pumping so much easier than it used to be.
Don't believe me? You're probably thinking: "you're just saying that because you won it. " No people! I really love this bra.
When I realized how much I loved The Simple Wishes Pumping Bra, I wrote to their PR people and asked if they would allow me to give away one of their bras away on OS/NS Mom. Guess what? They said yes! Do you want to win this bra? You know you do.

I'd love this bra because i plan on pumping! I also liked them on fb.
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm due in like 2 weeks so I NEED to win this bra. For reals! I liked Simple Wishes on Facebook :)
ReplyDeleteI now follow Simple Wishes on Twitter, too!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog on Facebook :)
ReplyDeleteThe reasons why I would love this bra are pretty endless. Most importantly though, I'm going to be transitioning from 1 child to 2, so I could really use anything that's hands-free. I think it would also be super helpful because I'm a university student, so at night I'm usually typing up papers or taking online exams...I would love to be able to pump and do that at the same time!
ReplyDeleteOk and I follow your blog too. Fingers crossed super hard!
ReplyDeleteI'm obviously not pumping milk and don't need the bra but your video is seriously hysterical. I love how you can hear the machine pumping away.
ReplyDeleteI'm not entering (though this bra makes me wish I were pumping again. not really), though I have to say the whole nips being sucked into the cones was hilarious. And I wish you would have done a dramatic black and white informercial type acting thing with you holding the pumping gear in your hand pretending to spill milk (but not REAL breastmilk, because DUH).
