Let me re-introduce myself 😊
I’m Carisa, your Pump Savvy IBCLC, full time NICU nurse, part time business owner and FNP/DNP student who owns The Milk Effect.
I took a step back from my business when I had my second son, but I’m back & have a new direction thanks to the advice of
I make pumping sprays & ni**le balms using natural ingredients and/or essential oils. I also have an online store where you can find all things breast pumping and receive a superbill for insurance if eligible.
Stay tuned for more breast pump and accessories reviews, education and ways in which I can help those (lactation professionals) who have the desire to help you 💙🤗
My normal output with wearables is 2 oz per side or just a little more depending on the time of day. I achieved that with the right pump settings, right sizing & right bra
I figured out what works for me & my body just like I would for my patients
If you guessed blood, you are CORRECT!
Having the right products, right sizing & information from the right source makes a huge difference.
I was testing out a new product to further help patients that want to know more about collection cups & this happened.
I did not feel any pain, but my ni**le did hit the tunnel at the end.
The problem? I had the wrong size for the product & the wrong combination of different products (an insert within the collection cup).
The fix? I used my ni**le size & removed the additional product
