Breastfeeding

Your breasts provide all the good stuff baby needs to support their growth and development in the early stage of their life. But while breastfeeding may be the most natural thing in the world, mums tell us that sometimes it’s hard to get the hang of.

Expressing or pumping your breast milk can give you a bit of relief, while still giving baby all that natural goodness, but that can be a bit of a messy business too.

So when you make the commitment to breastfeed, we commit to making life easier for you. Tommee Tippee is here to support you and your baby by helping make your breastfeeding experience a little smoother and more comfortable.

Just you, your boobs and some breast pads should cover the basics. Guidelines suggest that you should exclusively breastfeed your baby for the first 6 weeks to help you establish a good latch and a great routine, then you can think about introducing expressing if you choose to. 

Our products are designed support you through your breastfeeding journey, by making it easier and more comfortable to continue to breastfeed your baby for as long as you want to.  

That’s why our breastfeeding range has been designed with ideas and inputs from real breastfeeding mums.

We believe that every mum is a special, limited special edition. And that breastfeeding requires your unique love and commitment. Inspired by that love and commitment, our Made for Me breastfeeding range invites you to treat yourself like the true wonder you are and make your breastfeeding experience a little easier and more comfortable.

Our Made for Me collection includes a range of easy-to-use breast pumps, a soothing nipple cream and super absorbent breast pads all designed to keep you comfortable and confident enough to rise to the awesome challenge of being a mum. 

Expressing or pumping your breast milk can give you peace of mind knowing your baby can still get the nutrients of breast milk when you can’t be there, if you’re going back to work for example. It’s a great way for you to continue giving your baby all the benefits of your breast milk and is a lovely way for other family members to get involved, show their support and bond with baby too.

Our breast pumps are quiet, lightweight and discreet enough to give you confidence and freedom to express your breast milk when and where you want. Helping you deliver all the benefits of breast milk for longer.

From about 16-22 weeks into your pregnancy your breasts will start producing colostrum - early, concentrated milk, packed with nutrients and disease-beating antibodies. Once your baby arrives, you and your wonderful breasts provide everything they need for the best start in life.

Practically, breastfeeding can be low cost and convenient. Breast milk is always fresh and available and served up at body temperature whether you’re at home or out and about.

Breastfeeding also reduces your baby's risk of illness and infection. But breastfeeding does come with its own challenges, so the least we can do is try to make things a little easier wherever possible. And that means looking after you, mum.
