Anita Microfiber Underwire Nursing Bra Style 5041

Modern, stretch lace with extra soft finish on the skin side, makes this Anita Nursing Bra a real treat. It shows a functional microfiber back and preformed seamless cups for extra sensitive breasts. It also has Kwikklip for easy opening and features the Anita Memo to mark the side last used for breastfeeding.
Customer Review: Thank goodness for this bra!!!
I was looking for a comfortable and attractive nursing bra in a large size (I'm a 38E! Yikes!) and I have found it!!! This bra is very comfortable, attractive, and so worth the extra money! Most bras (nursing or not) for larger breasted women are matronly and make you feel like you're wearing body armor. But this bra is great! I'd even recommend it to non-nursing larger breasted women. I was nervous ordering bras online, but this one has exceeded my expectations. The underwire is soft enough that when I fold the cup down to nurse, it does not dig into my ribcage like so many other nursing bras with underwires, but still provides comfortable support. The little 'memo' tab to mark which side to nurse from next is really helpful as well. I'm very happy with this bra, I even bought two (in black and skin), and if they had it in my size in white I'd buy another! :D
Customer Review: The Best Nursing Bra
After three children and trying perhaps a dozen different nursing bras I have to say that this is overall the best nursing bra I have ever owned. It is fabulously functional. It is comfortable. It fits beautifully. And it's an attractive bra. Nursing pads fit easily into each cup during those early (leaky) days, but without the pads the bra provides plenty of support while allowing air to reach the breasts. I wish I'd found this bra after having my first child . . . but better late than never. This is a great product and is one that I am happy to recommend.


Breastfeeding advice abounds in parenting magazines, books, websites, and even free booklets from formula manufacturers. Some of the information is contradictory and some of it is just plain false. For instance, here are 3 bad pieces of advice and why they're bound to lead to problems.

1) Only nurse for XXX minutes per side

Fill in the blank here. It may be 5 minutes, 10 minutes or 15 minutes, but breastfeeding mothers are often told to watch the clock instead of watching their baby. Well meaning people (like the labor and delivery nurse who told me this after my oldest was born) say this because they think that soreness has to do with how long or how often baby nurses. It doesn't. Soreness has to do with HOW baby nurses.

So why is this poor advice?

Because babies can't tell time. A newborn may take 15 minutes to nurse on one breast, especially if he's (and you're) still learning the ropes. Don't set a time limit on your newborn's nursings. There is no such thing as non-nutritive sucking. Baby will always be rewarded with ounces or drops of milk for as long as he is at the breast.

In addition, the milk that baby gets at the end of the feeding, after the second letdown, is higher in fat and calories. Limiting time at the breast may, for some babies, lead to slow weight gain, fussiness, excessive gassiness and other problems.

2) Breastfed babies poop every day

While many young breastfed infants do have a dirty diaper every day, many don't. This has lead to much angst of the part of a poor Mom who thinks her baby is starving if he doesn't fill a diaper every day. Remember that breastmilk is digested completely and there is none or little "waste". Sometimes, especially during a period of rapid growth, your baby will skip days inbetween bowel movements. My second child went 8 days without a bowel movement once when he was a newborn, and I was concerned. When he did finally go, he made up in quantity what he lacked in frequency. If memory serves, several loads of laundry were needed to clean up the resulting mess!

If your baby is producing plenty of wet diapers, has no signs of dehydration and is gaining weight according to schedule, he's probably fine. The consistency of his movements rather than the frequency is a more accurate sign of constipation. Keep in mind that totally breastfed infants do not get constipated. If a baby who is eating some solids struggles to pass a hard stool, call your doctor or a breastfeeding consultant. And don't limit his time at the breast.

3) Don't let him use you for a pacifier

This is another well intentioned piece of advice in which the advice giver tries to lighten the load of the
breastfeeding mother, but it betrays a lack of understanding of the breastfeeding relationship.

Breastfed infants do not just nurse when they are hungry. They also nurse when they are thirsty, tired, over-stimulated, scared, hurt, coming down with an illness, lonely or bored. And that's ok. Frequent nursing keeps a mother's milk supply at a high level to meet baby's needs. A baby who suddenly wants to nurse "constantly" may be going through a growth spurt and is signaling to Mom to "send more milk!" in the most effective way possible. Or he may be teething or otherwise not feeling well.

Think about how you might feel if someone said that you shouldn't comfort your preschooler when they fell down and skinned their knee. A baby who uses the breast as a "pacifier" is no different that that older child, or a friend who calls you for a shoulder to cry on. It's called relationship.

Nursing is also pleasurable for babies. Sucking is a comfort and regulates the nervous system, and for the young infant, the best kind of sucking is the kind that takes place at the breast. Babies who are offered pacifiers tend to wean earlier than babies who don't take them.

Frequent nursing also has benefits for Mom. Levels of certain hormones are kept constant in her bloodstream, helping her to feel calmer, more impervious to stress, and happier. Frequent nursing also tends to keep fertility away, which may be a desirable side effect and also protects her health long term.

The bottom line? Listen to the baby and your own common sense, and listen less to the books and advice givers.

For quite some time, there have been concerns and many emails circulating the world with regards to lead content in cosmetics, and more particularly, lead in lipstick. Perhaps it would be best if lead were described and explained further.

Lead is a heavy metal just like mercury. Lead is poisonous. It accumulates in bone and soft tissues over time; it damages the nervous connections thereby causing brain and/or blood disorders, especially in children. Long term exposure to lead can cause nephropathy. The majority of adult elevated blood lead levels are at the workplace/workplace related. Lead exposure has been linked to schizophrenia. Lead is thought to affect women's fertility.

Which products can lead be found in?

In damaging amounts, lead can be found in vinyl (especially in electrical cords), brass that is manufactured in China, stoneware, as a coloring element in ceramic glazes, glazing bars of stained glass, in candles to treat the wick (supposedly North American and European manufacturers use zinc instead, but what about the importers?), in 2007 toys made in China were recalled because of the lead content in paint utilized, to name a few.

Health Canada claims that the levels of lead found in several lipsticks for sale within Canada do not pose a health risk for consumers. It was decided that lipskik be tested after a U.S. group (The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics) reported findings about lead in lipstick. Health Canada tested 26 products and found 21 of them contained lead. One lipstick contained 6.3 ppm (parts per million)! Canada uses 10ppm as its safety limit and the US, 5ppm. Any excess would require a safety-hazard warning.

Unfortunately for the consumers, Health Canada is not disclosing any brand names from their test results, as they deemed it CONFIDENTIAL.

As a consumer, are you not concerned about your health? Why then do Canada and other governments protect large corporations that could clearly affect our health? And if they feel that the levels are harmless, why then do they not let us choose for ourselves? Is it because large corporations need to be protected more that people. Do big companies and big money play a role in the decisions our governments make?

Scientific evidence claims there is NO SAFE LEVEL of LEAD in the blood. Obviously, one application every so often is probably harmless, but consider how often lipstick is applied each day! Consider that lead builds up in the blood and does not disappear, ever.

For most women, the onset of menopause is faced with dread thanks to the countless rumors and misinformation surrounding the issue. Who would welcome the change when it brings with it such discomforting symptoms such as hot flashes, wrinkles, weight gain, depression, anxiety, vaginal dryness and the eventual loss of sex drive? However, most of these symptoms have nothing to do with menopause and are merely signs of the natural aging process. And despite all of the horror stories that cloud the realities of this life-changing event, there are just a handful of symptoms directly associated with menopause - hot flashes and vaginal dryness.

Scientifically speaking, menopause is a period of transition whereby a woman experiences changes in her monthly period until it eventually ceases. This transition period usually lasts for five years (two years before the last menstrual period and three years after it). Most women go through menopause between the ages 45 and 53 with some women experiencing it a little earlier or a little later than most. It is also interesting to note that most women go through the change at about the same age her mother did!

While it is true that menopause can cause some inconveniences such as hot flashes and profuse sweating, these can easily be dealt with by making a few lifestyle changes. Check out these suggestions to help you cope up with these symptoms:

Wear appropriate clothing. Almost 80% of all women going through menopause experience periods of sudden, intense heat and profuse sweating. These episodes are most commonly known as flushes or hot flashes and they occur as a natural reaction to significantly decreased estrogen levels in the body. To keep your cool under these situations, it would be wise to wear loose clothing that can be easily removed.

Cool it down. Spritzing your face with cool water can bring enormous relief from hot flashes. Simply fill an ordinary squeeze bottle with cool water and use it to help bring your body temperature down! Another option is to blot your face with a cool washcloth or a moist towelette to douse the heat. You can also keep your cool by carrying a small personal fan with you wherever you go! Some good choices are inexpensive wood or paper fans or battery powered personal fans that are small enough to fit right into your purse.

Stay away from caffeine and alcohol. Hot flashes or flushes can sometimes be triggered by caffeine and/or alcohol. So, if you are one of those women who seem to experience such symptoms after consuming alcohol and/or caffeine, it would be better to avoid them completely. Remember that you can always shift to decaffeinated coffee or non-caffeinated tea instead. Another reason to avoid caffeine excessive caffeine intake depletes your bodys calcium reserve by prompting the kidneys to excrete more and more calcium through the urine. If left unchecked, this can lead to bone thinning; which is another symptom associated with menopause.

You do not have to fret about the onset of menopause. In fact, nobody who knows the correct information regarding the change should ever worry. Menopause is but a natural phase in life that every woman must go through. Just take it easy and you will be delighted to find the doorway to a more exciting and more challenging period of life ahead of you!

Johnsons Nursing Pads - 60 Each

Johnsons Nursing Pads Super absorbent core: Special polymer pulls and locks moisture away from skin for longer lasting dryness - healthier for your skin.Its nutritional content makes it the ideal food for a healthy, growing baby.JOHNSON'S Nursing Pads are designed for confident protection and complete discretion.
Customer Review: I am very pleased with these and highly recommend them.
These pads are the fourth brand I've tried, after Lansinoh and Gerber Ultra-Thin (both disposables) and some washable cloth pads (I forget the brand), and in my experience these are the absolute best. Each type of pad I tried prior had pros and cons, but I have no complaint at all about the Johnson's pads. I'm wearing them for both day and night, and even after wearing one set all night my bra, shirt, and skin were dry despite the pads being completely saturated. With the other brands, I regularly woke up with everything wet. Regarding daytime wear, I occasionally leaked around the Gerber pads and the cloth pads, as they were relatively small and also did not stay in place; the Lansinoh pads were larger in diameter and had adhesive to keep them in place, but I sometimes leaked through them. Neither of those situations has occurred with the Johnson's pads. These pads have remained in place flawlessly, even without using the adhesive strip, and they are not noticeable under my clothing. They feel so completely comfortable that I am able to forget they are there. They can contain a much larger amount of moisture, and they are soft and perfectly shaped for me. The only thing I would change about the Johnson's pads would be to have them individually wrapped like the Lansinoh pads, so that I can carry a spare set in my purse. In light of all the good things about this pad, though, that's a very minor concern.
Customer Review: Great
These are the best nursing pads I have found so far - soft, absorbent & they breathe...


Pregnancy brings in joy with the ever-increasing waistline, pains and aches. The body undergoes a tremendous change due to shifting of hormones. The skin changes, there are stretch marks and dark patches on the facial skin. Weight gain results in sleeping troubles, poor digestion, frequent urination, constipation etc. These are just a few symptoms of pregnancy. Since these changes take place gradually, one starts adjusting to them in anticipation of the joy it will bring after nine months. It is very important to maintain the pregnancy health and go through the process with a relaxed and happy state of mind.

Maintaining Pregnancy Health

With the onset of early signs of pregnancy, prepare yourself for the new changes in your life. Stay happy and comfortable. Consult your doctor for any problems and adjust your lifestyle to surmount the initial irritating body changes with more rest and relaxation. Follow a few tips for better pregnancy health.

Tender breasts: Wear a soft, comfortable maternity or nursing bra with extra support. Apply heavy moisturizing cream to cracked nipples after washing with water only.

Dizziness: Expanding uterus puts pressure on blood vessels, plus the nausea and vomiting can make one feel dizzy or light headed. To overcome this problem, maintain pregnancy health with frequent but small meals. Avoid standing or sitting in one position for long, lay down on your left side to relax, stand up slowly and do not let your body get over heated.

Hemorrhoids: They too are caused due to increasing pressure on the rectal veins and constipation. To prevent hemorrhoids drink lots of fluids, take fiber rich food and do not strain the bowel while evacuating.

Leg cramps: As the body weight increases and change in metabolization takes place, the pressure on legs and feet increases. Eat low-fat calcium rich food, go for short walks, stretch and flex leg and foot muscles, use heating pads to ease the leg cramps.

Swelling: A significant weight gain during pregnancy can result in swelling and puffiness. It could be a sign of high blood pressure or toxemia, consult the doctor immediately. To avoid swelling and to maintain a good pregnancy health, avoid salty foods and caffeine. Rest with your feet elevated and drink at least eight glasses of water to keep your body hydrated.

Teeth and gum problems: Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth regularly; avoid eating sweets and take high calcium diet. Oral bacteria due to gum disease can harm the fetus and result in either low-birth weight baby or premature delivery.

Similarly take all natural preventive measures to combat the various other changes in the body due to the pregnancy. Feel free to call your doctor in an event of vaginal discharge, bleeding, fever or chills, pain in abdomen or any abnormal discomfort. Good pregnancy health results in a happier you and healthier baby.
