Breastfeeding Answer Book Welcome!
Buying a top-quality breastpump, such as Medela Pump In Style or Ameda Purely Yours, at the best price is only the first step. You also need the information and support to use it optimally.. .

The Art of Breastfeeding was founded in 1993 by Nancy Mohrbacher, IBCLC, a board-certified lactation consultant and co-author of The Breastfeeding Answer Book, the most comprehensive research-based breastfeeding counseling guide available--a reference used worldwide by lactation consultants, La Leche League leaders, dietitians, nurses, and doctors.

Our mission is to help you meet your breastfeeding goals. We do this by giving you what you need when you need it (we now offer optional FREE SECOND DAY AIR on all Medela Pump In Style breastpumps, including the new Pump In Style Traveler and Pump In Style Companion) and by providing essential information through Nancy's breastfeeding articles on this site and through phone and e-mail support, so that when you receive your breastpump or product, you can get your questions answered by the experts.

Purely Yours Let us simplify your life by offering one-stop shopping for all the best brands, such as Medela and Hollister (who bought Ameda/Egnell and feature their Ameda line), and the best breastpumps, as well as many hard-to-find breastfeeding products. (Unlike many other sites, our loyalty is to you, not to one company.) With formula costing $100 to $175 per month, products that make breastfeeding easier are a wonderful investment that can pay back many times over.

With every breastpump (including the new Medela Pump In Style Traveler and Medela Pump In Style Companion), you'll receive original guidelines written by Nancy, designed to help you make the most of your breastpump, as well as the current information on milk storage and handling. And when you receive your breastpump or product, you are welcome to e-mail us with your questions. Or you can call our toll-free number. Nancy and her trained lactation specialists will be there for you. (See our About our Staff page to meet us personally.)

Pump-In-Style

Learn while you shop! Wondering which breastpump to use? What are the differences between the Medela Pump In Style and the Ameda Purely Yours? Will the less-expensive Medela DoubleEase or Nurture III breastpump (or even a manual breastpump) meet your needs? See our Choosing a Breastpump article. Also, read the descriptions of our other quality products:

  • My Brest Friend Nursing pillows --three different styles, including the popular My Brest Friend , plus two others designed for mothers of twins and triplets (see our Multiples page).

  • Over-the-Shoulder Baby Holder --newborn to age 3, for hands-free carrying of baby or toddler and discreet nursing in public. With more fabric and padding than other brands, parents rate it "most comfortable."

  • Mother's Milk Storage Bags. Less expensive than name brands but easier to use, with twist ties attached to the bags for easy sealing and pouring. Thick bags won't split in freezer like bottle liners.

In the Chicago area The Art of Breastfeeding offers breastfeeding classes and home or office breastfeeding consultations. If you need an Ameda or Medela pump, baby scale, or other helpful products, you can get home delivery and personal instruction by a trained lactation specialist. We will provide you with the most current milk storage guidelines while we teach you how to make the most of your new Medela Pump In Style, Pump In Style Traveler, Pump In Style Companion, Ameda Purely Yours, or other high-quality breastpump or breastfeeding product. We give you the personal attention you need in the privacy of your own home.
