Works for Me Wednesday

This is my first time doing WWFM, but i'm always inspired by my friend Kristine who does this, and for once, i came up with something i'm proud of and think is really clever.

At this point, i've been using my breastpump a lot. i hate sitting there holding the cups, but i didn't want to pay $23 for a bra like this

to avoid the hand cramps.

So, i took an old bra that i never wear and cut holes in it. i feel stupid for not thinking of it before! But it works just as well, and it repurposes an old unused thing instead of bringing another new thing into my life.

It works for me!

Very creative, my little one would never take a bottle, so I never was able to use my pump...

oh man! I wish I would have thought of that when I was pumping! Good idea!

Great idea! I spent many hours with my breastpump over the almost year that I was back to work and still breastfeeding exclusively. I rigged up rubber bands to help hold things in place, but this sounds much better!

Thanks for linking to me lady! Did you submit your post to the WFMW bloglist? I'm sure you did!
Anyways - that is an awesome idea!! Reminded me of my pantyliners for nursing pad idea! LOL!

Great Idea! I was just wondering the other day how I could have free hands while I pump.

You are officially brilliant! If only you'd been around a year and a half ago when I was pumping everything for newborn Tornado!

Good call!

Jessica! I have been kind of MIA on reading my blogs and stuff, so I only read this. CONGRATULATIONS on the birth of your sweet baby girl, first of all.

And this is a great idea!

OK ... that picture is totally cracking me up. Do you really chit-chat on the phone while you pump? Awkward.
