Mom4Life

Ok - I just have to say how much I love the Mom4Life website!
First of all, I love the quote from the Bible at the top of every page:
"Children are a gift from the Lord. They are a reward from Him" Psalm 127:3
Whenever I read that verse, it reminds me how truly blessed I am to be a mother.

This website has such as awesome array of products (I have a ton listed on my baby registry to remind myself of all the things I want to get before this new baby is born).

For now, the only product from the website I can honestly write a review on, is
LilyPadz Silicone Nursing Pads

I used these while nursing my first daughter. I only used them on occasion, as it is not recommended to use them as a regular bra pad. You have to let those Majumbas breathe!
You can use these to go strapless or braless, or as a smoother appearance under a nicer shirt.
I think the best use for them is while swimming. I took swim lessons after the birth of my daughter, and these were invaluable for my modesty and confidence. I didn't have embarrassing leakage, nor did I feel exposed in any way. These adhere very well, but are not painful to remove, and are on my eco-friendly list because you can use them over and over again. Just remember, these are not a replacement for regular bra pads - use them for a limited amount of time so you don't end up with mastitis. For swimming or special occasions, I would definitely recommend this product! You can find this product on the Mom4Life website by clicking on the following link:
