About Me

As I began breast pumping for my last baby, Gabrielle, I searched the internet for information about pumping, breast milk supply, and many other issues related to feeding my baby girl healthy breast milk. Though I found much of the information that I was seeking, I had to search over several websites with differing information. I decided there needed to be a central location to help moms get the necessary information that they needed for breast pumping and feeding their baby. Over the past few years, I received numerous emails and questions from moms and have added to the list of frequently asked questions and articles. This website is an on-going passion that I have to help mothers and hope that we can help many mommies searching for that golden nugget to help them through this exciting, exhausting, and sometimes confusing time in their life.

BPA (Bisphenol A) is not just in baby products

Yes, babies are most vulnerable to BPA, but adults are impacted as well. The article noted below is really enlightening.

This following is an excerpt from "The Medical News Today" website, found at http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/79439.php

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Panel Releases Conclusions About Compound BPA's Effect On Reproductive Disorders

The journal Reproductive Toxicology last week published on its Web site a statement warning that BPA likely is causing various human reproductive disorders. The statement was accompanied by a new study from NIH that found uterine damage in animals exposed to BPA. The damage is a potential predictor of reproductive diseases among women, including fibroids, endometriosis, cystic ovaries and cancers. Several dozen scientists reviewed about 700 earlier studies and for the first time linked BPA to female reproductive disorders. They also concluded that people are exposed to higher BPA levels than those found to harm laboratory animals. Infants and fetuses are most likely to experience harm from BPA.
