Select Breastfeeding Aids


Select Breastfeeding Aids

Breastfeeding is convenient, economical, and can occur with little more than a mother and a hungry baby. Experienced breastfeeding mothers would understand how helpful it is to have a number of breastfeeding aids on hand to provide additional comfort and convenience during this cherished bonding time.

Buy breastfeeding essentials for mum

Breastfeeding success can often depend on mum’s comfort, and there are a range of products available that have been designed to make breastfeeding easier.

  • Breast pads: Breast pads absorb leakage during the nursing months, and you can find them in two types - disposable or machine-washable.

  • Nipple shields: Use nipple shields or protectors during nursing which allows air to circulate and keeps clothing away.

  • Nursing bras: Nursing bras which provide full support are also available.

  • Lanolin: Pure lanolin creams soothe tender or sore nipples and are safe for baby.

Select a breast pump and accessories

Busy breastfeeding mums appreciate being able to express milk for future feedings. Bottles of breast milk also allow dad to participate in the feeding ritual and give mum a well-deserved break. Popular breast pumps are manufactured by Medela, Avent, Nuk and Ameda. Buy a brest pump to suit your needs and your budget.

  • Manual breast pumps: Manual breast pumps provide a convenient and low cost solution for occasional pumping and storage.

  • Electric breast pumps: Electric breast pumps are more powerful and simulate the baby’s natural sucking pressure to help stimulate more milk in a shorter amount of time.

  • Double electric breast pumps: Double electric breast pumps are designed to let you pump both breasts at the same time.

  • Baby bottles: If you express and refrigerate breast milk for later, you’ll need to buy baby bottles for feeding. Consider Avent baby bottles, or Nuk baby bottles.

  • Baby bottle warmers: Bottle warmers help warm bottles to room temperature when baby’s hungry. Avent is also a popular choice for bottle warmers.

Create a comfortable breastfeeding environment

Mothers spend lots of time nursing babies, particularly newborns, so it’s important to ensure both mother and baby remain comfortable and happy while breastfeeding.

  • Nursing pillows: During breastfeeding, prop your baby up with nursing pillows to a comfortable height and angle.

  • Rockers, bouncers: Get a cosy baby rocker or bouncer. Rockers come in a wide variety of finishes and upholstery styles to meet your decorative needs.

  • Nursing covers: Nursing covers also create a little sanctuary for your feeding baby away from distractions. Small throw cloths and shawls let you maintain privacy when you breastfeed in public places.

  • Nursing stools: Prevent back strain during breastfeeding by raising your feet on a nursing stool.

Get support with instructional books and DVDs

If you're after some expert advice or educational support, you’ll also find helpful breastfeeding books on eBay Singapore.

Get Feeding Essentials


Get Feeding Essentials

There are a variety of accessories you'll need for every baby feeding.

                   Baby bottles, baby bibs

Get baby bottles and accessories

Baby bottles are essential for formula feeding and there are various styles to meet your family’s lifestyle and your baby’s needs.

  • Reusable baby bottles: Reusable baby bottles come with straight or angled necks; the latter reduce the amount of air a baby swallows during feeding.

  • Disposable baby bottle systems: Disposable baby bottle systems include a plastic shell that holds disposable bags. Since the bags contract as the baby drinks, these are also good for reducing air intake.

  • Baby bottles for colic: Special baby bottles, are popular with parents of babies with colic, since they feature an internal vent system that replicates breast feeding to virtually eliminate air bubbles. There are also anti-colic bottles which are designed to help prevent colic in infants.

  • Baby bottle warmers: Baby bottle warmers help warm formula to room temperature when baby’s hungry.

  • Baby bottle brushes: Use long-reach bottle brushes to thoroughly clean reusable bottles between uses.

  • Sterilisers: Buy a steriliser to sterilise all your baby feeding accessories. Find popular models by Avent, Nuk and Lindam.

Choose replacement teats

Teats are available in a wide variety of styles, colours, and materials. Ensure you use the right teat for the bottle you plan to use and to select a teat with an appropriate flow speed for your baby. Newborns typically need slower flow than infants or toddlers. If your baby strains to suck, it's probably time for a faster-flow teat. Make sure you check all teats frequently and replace damaged or worn teats immediately.

  • Rubber and latex teats: Rubber and latex teats are soft and flexible, although some babies may develop allergies.

  • Silicone teats: Silicone teats are firm, hold their shape well, and are often dishwasher-safe.

  • Orthodontic teats: Orthodontic teats are an ergonomic option engineered to prevent tooth and jaw problems.

Keep baby clean, comfortable, and pacified

Stock up on other essential items for feeding and comforting baby.

  • Baby bibs: Keep milk, formula, and baby food off baby’s clothes with a stylish baby bib.

  • Burp Cloths: Keep a supply of burp cloths handy for burping your baby after each bottle feeding.

  • Feeding pillows: Use an angled or contoured feeding pillow to hold your baby at the right height and position for feeding.

  • Dummies: The sucking motion provided by a dummy or pacifier will often soothe fussy babies. Orthodontic models are also available.

Shop for a Baby High Chair


Shop for a Baby High Chair

Starting solid foods and graduating to a high chair is an important milestone in baby’s life. This is a great time to bring out the camera and take photos of the mashed foods that will no doubt wind up covering your baby (and possibly yourself as well), from nose to toes.

                  Baby high chairs, baby booster chairs

Select a high chair

Consider the following when selecting a high chair. Popular Brands include Steelcraft, and Peg Perego.

  • Stability: If you're buying a standing high chair, make sure it's sturdy and has a wide base. For portable high chairs that clamp onto a tabletop, be sure that the clamps are in good condition.

  • Safety: High chairs should have restraint belts that go around baby's waist and between baby’s legs to prevent falling out or squirming away. Remember to make sure the high chair has no sharp edges.

  • Easy cleaning: The eating tray should be removable for easier cleaning. It should also have a raised lip to catch the majority of spills. Fabrics or seat cushions should also be removable and made of sturdy, washable materials like vinyl or plastic.

  • Extra features: Decide what other features you need before you shop. For example, while some high chairs include wheels, others collapse for easy transport.

  • Materials: Metal and plastic high chairs tend to be lighter and have more features than their wooden counterparts. However, some parents prefer the classic good looks and sturdiness of wooden high chairs.

You should also contact the manufacturer of the high chair for additional safe use information.

Select other feeding essentials

When your baby starts eating solid foods, you'll also need to buy baby utensils, cups, and dishes, in addition to your high chair. Find a great range of cutlery sets on eBay Singapore to choose from. To be sure you know what's in your child's diet, you may also choose to make your own baby food with a food processor.

Graduate to a booster chair

When your baby is walking and too big for a high chair, a booster seat makes it easy for them to sit at the table with you.
