MOM’S FAVOURITES Guest editor Kwanele Mbobo shares her favourite products for making a mom’s life easier.
Avent Nipple Shields
If it wasn’t for nipple shields, breastfeeding would’ve been much more painful. They helped alleviate the pain that comes with breastfeeding in the first few months and once my breasts were used to the sucking, I stopped using the shields and there was no more pain.
Angelcare On-The-Go Nappy Bags Dispenser
This is just cute and great for travelling. It’s small and the bags have a germ-fighting antibacterial coating. Anything that eliminates germs is a mom’s best friend.
Tommee Tippee Breast-Like Soother
Soothers are the best – they keep babies calm and occupied. Sometimes babies just want things in their mouths, and soothers help solve that problem.
Pigeon Breast Pads
Leaking breasts are not fun and non-absorbent breast pads are even worse. These were very reliable and comfortable when I was still breastfeeding.
Dove Rich Moisture Nappy Cream This cream’s texture is amazing, making it very easy to spread on baby’s bum.
