The new beginnings silicone nipple shields are great. The base of the shield suctions onto your breast just like the new beginnings manual silicon pump. It draws out my milk which then flows into the nipple part of the shield. My baby girl feeds from the shield and suctions on very nicely, my girl is able to have her normal feed without me enduring any discomfort or irritation. Definitely a must have for new time mummys.

I’ve enjoyed using my new beginnings aqua gel pads for quite some time now. They are so very lovely to have for every breast feeding mama out there. When you just need to bring your sore scratched or cracked nipples back to life after those bad breast feeding days. They instantly cool the momemt you put them on, they stick on very well and stay on for as long as you leave them there. They can be reusable if you put them into a clean surface and you can store them in the fridge to keep that cooling sensation after youve used them a few times.

New beginnings range is fantastic, i love using the silicone nipple shields when I need to give my nipples and breast a rest. They suction on very well and stay on nicely without moving around. My little currently 5 months old can latch on very well and has done since around almost 4 months. It’s so nice to have peace of mind that when i need a little break i can still get that whilst breast feeding and we both feel comfortable.

My little one has tounge tie so when she latches on and sucks, I end up with quite sore nipples. Now she has also started to grab and pinch my breasts. After her last feed before bed I like to apply my new beginnings aqua gel pads for some much needed soothing, i love the instant cooling sensation they give my breasts. They sick on nicely and stay on all night long. If you put them on a piece of baking paper they are also reusable to, i find keeping them in the fridge after 1 or 2 uses really helps keep the cooling and soothing sensations lasting alot long too.

I loved the quality of all of the products in this range. The pads did not slip around or bunch up and felt lovely on my skin. My son has been weaned of shields, but I did give him a quick try and he fed well with it. The gel pads were super soothing and definitely recommend fot sore cracked over used nipples!

The new beginnings aqua gel breast pads are an absolute must have. I wish i knew about them when I had my first and second baby. They are so handy to have especially when baby starts to grab, pull, pintch and bit your breats. I find that i look forward to putting mine on towards the end of most days. They instantly cool and soothe my sore and aching nipples. I highly recommend.

I love the new beginnings breast pads in particular. They do a fantastic job keeping your skin dry while absorbing a lot of leakage. They’re a good size and provide a lot of coverage, while also being discreet enough to wear out with no one noticing them. My only slight critique is that I find the adhesive doesn’t always hold them in place, but that’s not a huge issue and I’ve never had them leak even if they shuffle around a little

Its been a pleasure trialing the new beginnings maternity range. I’ve already converted 3 mums at my mum and bubs class to now buy the aqua gel pads. We always talk about many things pregnancy, baby and after birth our bodys and everything inbetween. This one particular catch up we were all talking about what we do after a hard feed with baby biting nipple or scratching boobies. I mentioned that I’ve trialed the new beginnings aqua gel pads, a few of the mums had never heard of them, a few have already and currently using and i got 3 of them thanking me the week later saying they were life savers. I love telling people about great products that actually work.

Absolutely love using my new beginnings aqua gel breast pads. After hectic bedtime feeding, my girl at times pinches, scratches and clamps down on my nipples. By the time i put her down my boobs are so sore and i have red scratches all over my boobs and chest. It’s nice to have something to rely on to help fix and soothe all of this for me. The moment i pop my aqua gel pads on i feel an instant cooling sensation, i leave them on all night, they stay in very nicely without moving around. When i wake in the morning my boobs and nipples feel so refreshed.

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
Mouths of Mums is proudly working with Banana Boat to bring you this article.
Some really good tips here! I had no idea about the talcum powder hack – who would have known! That is amazing and I will definitely try it next time we go to the beach! It is definitely worthwhile getting things ready the night before though, especially if you want to leave before midnight lol.
