Feeding Fiasco
When I was gearing up to bring my little girl into the world I was faced with many decisions. Doctors asked about birth plans and how I planned to feed my baby.
I exclusively breastfeed my five-month-old daughter. I do this because of the health benefits it provides to her, the mother-daughter bond it helps us create, and my daughter prefers breast milk.
That’s right, she prefers breast milk and let my husband know that she was not happy about his attempt to feed her formula when I was away from home at feeding time.
Who knew such a tiny little human would have such preferences, let alone be so vocal about them?
I had avoided pumping because it was difficult. My breast pump had so many parts and pieces that I had to assemble and thoroughly clean and sanitize with each use, both of my hands had to be free to hold and operate the pump, and I had to remain stationary and near a wall while I used the pump because the base was plugged into an outlet.
But I had to do it because I had to make sure my picky eater would actually eat when I am away.
Hands-Free Mobile Breastfeeding Pump
When I began using a mobile breast pump called the Freemie Liberty, my frustrations with breastfeeding quickly vanished.
The Freemie Liberty is an innovative, game-changing hands-free breast pump with a rechargeable battery.
The funnel and the semi-circle milk collection cups fit easily inside of a bra which holds the cups in place.
In this picture, I am completely hands free as I move around my kitchen, pumping with the Freemie. It’s really revolutionary!
This allows you to pump discreetly and keep your hands free to tend to baby, work on the computer, or even cook while you pump.
The mobile breast pump’s base is small and very easy to operate. The small size of the base means it can easily be stashed away in a purse or diaper bag, making it extremely easy to transport.
I can truly pump on the go, due to the Liberty’s rechargeable battery too!
The three customizable setting buttons at the top of the base make it simple to save and return to your favorite settings.
The belt clip on the back of the base helps make the device even more mobile as you pump.
No bags! The milk pours easily into baby bottles.

A Mom’s Perspective
Living in a different state from our families, we do a lot of traveling. The Freemie Liberty Mobile Breast Pump makes it easy for me to pack my pump into what little space is left in my diaper bag and hit the road.
My favorite feature of this product is that it is rechargeable. On a long road trip with no access to an outlet?
No worries, I can use my mobile breast pump in the car and can even do it hands-free! I am not stuck sitting close to a wall so that I can keep my pump plugged in and that is a huge plus for me as a mom who is always on the go.
With rechargeable and hands-free features, this mobile breast pump is my go-to pump both at home and on the road.
