Round 2 of Testing Complete

Well, it has been a very busy past few months, but we have finally completed our second round of testing and it was amazing. Our mommy testing group tested over 160 products and loved every minute of it! We had so many fabulous products, we had to make our lists top 20′s instead of top tens! Be sure to look out for the lists live at www.peekaboobabyplanners.com at the beginning of September and we will be blogging about the great products that our moms loved but didn’t quite make the lists in Sept. and into Oct. right here!!

Stay Tuned……

Cheers,
Nicole

Used Breast Pumps

Used Breast Pumps, to buy or not to buy? The answer is simple, run away as fast as you can! There are many items that a family can purchase second hand as having a baby certainly isn’t cheap, however a breast pump is definitely not one of them. Almost all breast pumps are made for single users. You and baby can become infected from bacteria or blood that is left behind on the pumps if the previous owner had any infections. Please have a look at http://www.breastfeedingonline.com/pumps.shtml for more information. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like help with Baby Budgeting and which second hand products are safe and which to avoid!
