Medela is a company with history. Started in Switzerland back in 1961, the Larsson family continues to support and grow the company today. They have been doing business in the United States for over 30 years. Specializing in breastfeeding, their primary goal is to help mothers to successfully breastfeed their babies as long as they wish. So committed are they to this goal that their founder, Olle Larsson, said: "We pledge our dedication to breastfeeding as the best nutrition for babies and families. We further pledge that our breastfeeding accessory products and literature shall never be used to influence mothers to switch from breastfeeding to infant formula feeding. Nor shall our breastfeeding accessory products and literature be used in any way to promote artificial baby milk."

Medela was the first manufacturer in the United States to develop the Corporate Lactation Program to support the needs of mothers who work outside the home. In addition to assuring the availability of a pleasant, private location; they also provide breastfeeding counseling for employees and their families. Many corporations are now more accommodating to nursing mothers thanks to this ground-breaking program.

Quality is a company mandate at Medela. Always striving to improve, they have a continuous process of research on technological advancements and safety. Their quality system holds the ISO 13485 Certification, which is a list of very precise requirements for quality systems and standards. They have also received numerous awards of excellence for their design and innovative technology. Medela assures their customers that any of their products that come into contact with breastmilk are made from glass and other BPA-free, DEHP-free materials.

Breastpumps are Medela's primary product focus. They offer many hospital-grade and personal-style pumps, both electric and manual. These include:
Pump In Style Advanced, one of the most popular portable, double-electric personal breast pumps available on the market today Medela Freestyle, their hands-free double-electric pump Swing, a daily use single-electric pump Symphony and Symphony Plus, their hospital-grade double-electric pump Lactina Select, an additional hospital-grade pump Single Deluxe, an occasional-use single-electric pump Harmony, their occasional-use single manual pump

In addition, Medela also provides an extensive line of accessories to further promote the convenience and comfort of their breast pump products, including specialty feeding devices, breastmilk storage systems, breast care, and intimate apparel.

Truly a pioneer in the breastfeeding industry, Medela has recently introduced a new product, their Supplemental Nursing System (SNS). This not only enables adoptive mothers to breastfeed (and possibly induce their own lactation) but provides the breastfeeding experience to mothers and babies with other special problems.

Ultrasound Reveals Breastfeeding Mechanics

!9# Ultrasound Reveals Breastfeeding Mechanics

Research presented at the Medela breastfeeding and lactating symposium in Venice, Italy, suggests that I may have got it all wrong. Although it might look like a baby is chewing on the mother's nipple, ultrasound images show that the infant actually removes milk by creating a vacuum also known as sucking. The finding is important, as it could explain why some babies fail to take to the breast. It may also shed new light on why for a minority of women breastfeeding really can be a painful experience. Squeeze or suck? "There have been two theories about how breast milk is expressed," says Donna Geddes (no relation) of the University of Western Australia in Crawley. "One is that the baby uses a peristaltic or compression motion to actually push the milk out of the nipple and breast. The other theory is that vacuum is primary in removing the milk." Until now, most studies examining the mechanics of breastfeeding have focused on bottle-feeding infants, or on old X-rays that were of poor quality. Instead, Geddes and her colleagues combined ultrasound imaging of infants suckling on the breast with measurements of the strength of the vacuum created by the baby's mouth in 20 infants aged 3 to 24 weeks as they breastfed (see video). "What we see is that when the tongue is lowered and the vacuum is applied, that's when the milk is coming out of the breast, and that doesn't involve any compression of the nipple," says Geddes. "It's not a milking action at all." Feeding failures They ...

Breastfeeding - Good Drinking

!9# Breastfeeding - Good Drinking

Good Drinking Note the position of the baby at the breast. Chin in the breast, nose not touching, babys lower lip covering more of the areola with the lower lip than the upper. An asymmetric latch. The pause in the chin as the baby sucks means the baby just got a mouth full of milk. The longer the pause, the more milk he got. A baby who drinks like this for 20 minutes straight (for example, we are not recommending feeding by the clock), might not take the other side, he would be full.

The qualities that are required in a breast pump are comfort, efficiency, high milk production, and ease of use for the nursing mother. Presently, companies like Medela and Ameda, as well as a couple other companies provide top of the line breast pumps.

Mothers must consult a lactation consultant before renting or buying a breast pump. In the event the breast pump is being rented, it will be easier to purchase a rental kit. This includes the breast pump parts necessary for producing milk. A weekly or monthly rental fee will be charged by the rental agency.

The best in the rental pumps are the hospital grade pumps provided by Medela and Ameda. Medela hospital grade rental pumps include Medela Symphony, Classic, and Lactina rental breast pumps. Ameda provides Ameda Elite, Lact-e and SMB electric rental breast pumps.

Mothers must talk to the physician about writing a prescription for a breast pump rental or purchase. Even though a few insurance companies reimburse subscribers either partially or fully for all the rental costs or for the purchase of a retail hospital grade breast pump, it greatly depends upon the coverage the insurance company provides for medical equipment.

The Medela Pump in Style is a highly durable breast pump that can be used for a second or even third child, too. Even when the parts like the tubing, valves, or membranes have to be replaced, mothers using them consider them an excellent investment.

The Medela also has a Mini Electric breast pump that can be used for short-term separations of mother and baby. Traveling with this is very convenient since it is lightweight and completely portable. The pump can be attached to a regular feeding bottle. A transformer is provided along with pump that allows plugging it into any electric outlet or the pump can also be powered using two AA batteries. In the event that the two choices mentioned are not possible, a manual pump adapter is also provided for emergencies.

Consumer reviews show that the most preferred breast pumps are the Ameda Purely Yours breast pump, Medela Pump in Style Original and the Medela Pump In Style Traveler.

Anywayup Cup by Mandy Haberman

!9# Anywayup Cup by Mandy Haberman

The award-winning, Anywayup Cup I invented comes in three models - the Anywayup Cup, Anywayup Beaker and the Smiley Cup. They all have a unique, Anywayup patented valve, which is moulded into the mouthpiece to ensure that the spout seals between sips - so absolutely no spills. Shake, Rattle & Roll! The Anywayup Cup 1. Take a few sucks; 2. Turn it upside down; 3. Give it a good shake; 4. Look - no spills. Other cups will! Why is the Anywayup cup the first (and best) no-spills cup in the world? Unlike other cups, the Anywayup Cup has no gap above the valve in which drips can lurk (the pic on the left is a section through the spout showing the Anywayup valve). Because drink only flows when your child drinks, the risk of tooth decay from comfort sucking is avoided. The Anywayup Cup is for 9 months+ described by Nick Coleman from the Independent as "small with two symmetrical handles, which is ideal for weeny ones." The Beaker is for one year olds +. It has a "One piece lid - no fiddly bits to assemble and clean. No straws or dirt traps." The Smiley cup has a specially designed travel lid that ensures the spout is kept clean when not in use and doubles as a handy bowl for finger foods. Babyworld.co.uk assessed the Smiley cup as "Definitely a no-spills cup which works well. Fairly priced for a practical cup, which has been well thought through and has some useful added features." These include the easy to use screw-on lid, with "smile line" which ensures correct dilution of ...
