[quote=Anonymous]I was so clueless with my first and totally unprepared.  I didn’t realize you need nursing sleep bras.  I personally prefer the pull down type rather than the clasp kind.  I liked the ones from target and gap has some nice ones too.  I prefer the kinds with no pads and then I just insert the reusable washable nursing pads inside.  Everybody has their own preference tho.  I absolutely could not stand the sensation of my nipples touching anything other than a nursing pad for the entire 16 month duration of nursing with my son. This was a shock to me because I love sleeping braless in my non nursing life.  I like the washable pads on Amazon.

Also make sure you have lanolin in advance.  I think the haaka is helpful too.  Pumping accessories can go either way. For some they are a must have but I find the pump extremely stressful and depressing and too much to juggle with a newborn.  I would wait and buy back to work pumping stuff later.  Who knows maybe you will end up deciding pumping at work just isn’t for you anyway.  If you do buy storage bags I vastly preferred then Medela brand over lansinoh. [/quote]
