I would definitely recommend the New Beginnings Breast Pump to anyone and everyone!! It was sooo easy!!! I was able to connect it all up and because it was so quiet, I was able to express while sitting there watching tv. The different levels of stimulation and suction were great as I was able to customise it depending on when I expressed (whether it was close after breastfeeding or much later). I loved the function of the time as I was able to gain an idea of how long it would take me to express a certain amount of milk. I also loved that it was a double as I could express a large amount of milk in very little time! The New Beginnings Breast Pump was also very easy to clean and reassemble afterwards. The stands for the bottles were also very handy as it meant no spilt milk! ???? I loved everything about the New Beginnings Breast Pump and I found it to be no comparison to another manual breast pump I have previously used. I would hands down recommend New Beginnings as my first choice electric breast pump!

At some point in almost every breastfeeding mums journey you will find youself wanting or needing to pump milk.
For the last 3 weeks my littlest man has been ill and losing weight which is concerning as he's only 6 weeks old. I've needed to express so that I could monitor how much he was drinking and to give him a bit of a rest by drinking from a bottle and letting the pump do the hard work on the boob instead.
All of this has meant my New Beginnings double electric breast pump has received quite a work out.
I love that it is a complete kit and comes with the pump plus all the bottles and teats you need. The only thing that would make it more perfect would be if it came with a travel case.
Upon unboxing I had a moment of thinking the pump was missing it's most important part, the motor! However I soon found it and was amazed at how tiny it was!
Assembly was really simple and I was soon set up ready to go.
I love that the pump is battery operated with an easy to use USB recharging cable.
I started the pump in stimulation mode as instructed. I gradually moved up the suction levels. Unfortunately this mode stops at level 5 suction which was still a little to gentle to initiate my let down. I decided to try the extraction mode and very quickly the milk started to flow. So don't despair if the stimulation mode isn't strong enough for you because the extraction mode goes up to level 9 which will give even the most vigorous feeding baby a run for it's money.
Once I got the best modes for me figured out the milk was quickly extracted and within 20mins I had drained both sides.
The pump is quiet enough that I can use it next to my sleeping baby without disturbing him.
The size is deceptive as this small pump packs a punch and is the perfect companion for any breastfeeding mama.

This breast pump has saved my sanity! It’s small size, minimal noise and incredible functions has allowed me to build up a freezer stash that using my old electric pump was little more than some wishful thinking. After trialing this pump for a few weeks now I have managed to consistently express enough milk to not have to worry about having Dad and his useless nipples stay home with the kids! I love the let down mode to get the milk flowing and that I can swap back to the let down mode from the expressing mode as needed to give it a boost. I believe this is what has led to being able to successfully pump this time around, whereas I had to put my first on formula when I went out as no matter what I tried, I just couldn’t respond to that pump at all. Thank you so much New Beginnings! I will be recommending this pump to all new mums!

Headed out? Don’t forget your phone, wallet, keys and BREAST PUMP!
The New Beginnings Electric Breast Pump has given me SO much FREEDOM!
Whether it’s the freedom to express and leave my baby with my hubby or the freedom to express whilst on the move, it’s given me the FREEDOM to nurture my baby with my milk no matter where I am!
It fits so perfectly into my handbag that I am able to take it with me anywhere, and I can even charge it in the car!
Long drives are easier because I can express whilst my hubby is driving so that the baby has a warm feed on the journey without having to stop and even short drives are perfect because expressing is so fast that I’ve got a big feed of warm milk to use when we reach our destination and my baby becomes unsettled, without having to pop in to a feeding room whilst out and about, and anything that saves time is a MASSIVE win!!!

I didn’t realise how much easier (and more pleasant for my baby) breastfeeding could be until I started using this awesome pump!!!
Usually for feeds my breasts are exploding with milk, so when my baby latches he gets an absolute gush of milk sprayed all over his face, which is unpleasant for him and an extra challenge for me to try and get him latched back on.
Now all I have to do is express some milk prior to feeding and he isn’t left with an explosion of milk in his face!
I really do love it, and I’m certain he loves having more relaxed feeds, it’s just fantastic!!!

One small step for tech, one GIANT LEAP for Women’s Empowerment
Don’t let looks deceive you, I kid you not, this gorgeous little device although no heavier than your mobile, is jam packed with amazing technology!!!
It’s incredibly easy to charge, set up, use as well as clean- it’s super quiet so I can pump even during night feeds
The BEST bit however is how it makes me feel!!! The FREEDOM- not just to be able to have my baby looked after by someone else with the peace of mind that he will still be nourished with my breastmilk BUT I can physically accomplish SO much more
I can express milk before exercising so that my breasts don’t ache during a workout
I can express milk to ease discomfort when my baby sleeps for longer than usual rather than trying to get him to “dream feed” to ease my heaviness from being too full
I can express simply to give myself the opportunity to let someone else help me with the baby whilst I get other things done, whether that be one in one time with my other little ones, or catching up on chores or even simply fitting in some “self care” into my week (it is true what they say ‘you can’t pour from an empty vessel’)
I absolutely LOVE this gorgeous little device, for something so small it really has made a giant impact on my daily life!

I currently own a very popular double portable breast pump which i purchased online after i did tons of review reading to decide this was the best one for me to purchase.
To be honest i only ever pump one side at a time because i usually feed on the other side.
Now after recieving the new beginnings single breast pump ive tested and used it a few times im totally in love with it...
Its so soft and gentle to use thru the night i dont wake bubba or the husband up,
Its compact light and easy to use,
I love where i place my breast it has a silicon pad which makes it more comfortable for me when im using the pump instead of the hard plastic that goes against my skin.
Also it has a circlar base where i can place the bottle on the table which i find great so it doesnt tip over which sometimes happens to my current one at night when im just getting myself out of bed to take the milk to the kitchen.
It came with two bottles a small one and a taller one which also feels very strong and studry bubba doesnt seem to have a problem using the teets from these bottles.
I cant find a fault and i love this pump so much more than my current one im using.

I purchased the New Beginnings double pump while pregnant and having used the Medela brand in hospital with a reasonable amount of discomfort and varied success I wasn't looking forward to my at-home pumping routine.
I'm happy to say that my fear and hesitation was misplaced! The New beginnings pump is easy to use, gentle on your breasts and nipples, and pleasantly effective as milk extraction regardless of whether you are using it as a single or double pump.
With the added bonus of the pump motor being portable (it fits in a robe pocket), it makes tending to baby while pumping much easier.

This breast pump is super compact yet very powerful. I love how it is a battery pack in 1 just charge it and go and counts how long you’ve pumped for! I managed to express a very large amount in a very small amount of time which is what a busy mum needs. I’ve tried a couple of very popular brands and this pump is more efficient than any I’ve tried so far.

So when I first tried this breast pump, I didn’t realise the battery was rechargeable so I had it plugged into my laptop whilst I sat there pumping, once I knew that I moved myself outside where I could let my other child play outside whilst keeping my ears open to the younger one. It was nice being outside in the sunshine, I almost go crazy from being indoors.
I still haven’t worked out how to use the stand though. It still doesn’t click in.

It's been 3 weeks since I first got my mitts on the New Beginnings Single Electric Breast Pump which I thought was fantastic from its first use. But as time goes on it just gets better. At the moment I use the pump about 4 times per day. In my first video review I wasn't using the lanyard that comes with the pump, but now I definitely am! The lanyard attaches to the small but powerful motor and when worn around my neck frees up my hands to do other mum things which is a total
time saver. I used the pump at play group last Tuesday and every mum there was so envious of the pocket rockets size, quiteness and portability. I'm so glad that New Beginnings breast pumps have hit the market for use by all Aussie breastfeeding, committed & super busy but so deserving mums.

I have had the pleasure of owning this pump for a short time and I am very impressed. It is super quiet, very, very gentle and most of all very effective. I have used other pumps previously and found them to be much less comfortable with less ‘output’. I highly recommend this to breastfeeding Mums to purchase for themselves or as a baby gift purchase for first time Mums to be. It’s gentle, effective and so easy to use. Great, portable size as well.

Currently on a holiday without the baby and this pump has been amazing for travel from Townsville to Sydney.

Wow I loved this pump so lightweight and super easy to use.
I love that I could adjust the strength of let down setting as previously I have used other pumps that do not let you do this the just had the one settling.
I used the pump without the comfort cushion and found it to be very comfortable. In fact I didn’t even try with the comfort cushion.
I was super engorged at 11pm one night as my 14 week old did a huge stretch in her sleep and was able to pump 150mls in 5 minutes from one breast instant relief. So fast!
I love how portable it is always so easy to pack and take with me when I need it.
Also my daughter had decided to refuse the avent natural bottles I had and the shape of the teat on the new beginnings bottle was different and she took to it really easily.
Highly recommend this pump! So much in such a small pump.

I had my baby 12 weeks ago and have been a little lazy on pumping. Bubs is definitely a boobie monster, and being my third baby in 4 years, it’s hard to find time to pump. I love how compact it came and the packaging was great. Super easy to wash and get ready for a first time use. I love that it is portable and rechargeable with a usb! I even charged it in the car. Really handy with the next strap and the battery lasted a long time.
I can only compare with my spectra S2, and to me, they are on par with each other. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
The machine is fairly quiet. The pumping motion hurt a tad at first but I’m not sure if that’s because I haven’t pumped much, or I’m just used to the S2. Overall very happy with the product.

How to choose the best lunch box for school
When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.
Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

Finally, a kids’ lunch box that stores hot AND cold food in one place! Designed out of necessity by a problem-solving mum, the OmieBox encourages low-waste lunches and ends the need to use multiple clunky containers (which always get lost!). The spill-proof individual compartments mean no mixing of savoury and sweet, and the 280ml double-wall thermos keeps soups and pasta hot for up to six hours!
Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:
Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
That lunchbox comparison table is handy to have. It helped me make a decision on which lunchbox to buy next for my daughter who is starting kindergarten. I needed to upgrade her lunchbox but wasn’t sure which way to go. The table helped me with my decision. I ended up going with the BBOX and have found a cheaper lunch bag from a department store that it fits in.
I do not know if anyone else has picked up on this or not, but every bag mentioned in the table above is a ‘designer’ brand. There are plenty of more affordable options that aren’t over $40. I have never spent that much on a lunchbox – even from Smiggle. The cheaper brands last just as well too.
Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.
Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.
Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.
I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.
So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.
There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.
There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain
This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.
Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.
This is an extremely useful article!! 2 schppl going kids and third starting kinder soon means we are always on the lookout for lunch ideas and lunch boxes. This is a great list with features and prices listed to make the search easier and help with decision making for purchasing of the lunch boxes
This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones
Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.
These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.
I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.
My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags
My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.
Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.

Great design for pumping on the go
For the last 3 weeks my littlest man has been ill and losing weight which is concerning as he's only 6 weeks old. I've needed to express so that I could monitor how much he was drinking and to give him a bit of a rest by drinking from a bottle and letting the pump do the hard work on the boob instead.
All of this has meant my New Beginnings double electric breast pump has received quite a work out.
I love that it is a complete kit and comes with the pump plus all the bottles and teats you need. The only thing that would make it more perfect would be if it came with a travel case.
Upon unboxing I had a moment of thinking the pump was missing it's most important part, the motor! However I soon found it and was amazed at how tiny it was!
Assembly was really simple and I was soon set up ready to go.
I love that the pump is battery operated with an easy to use USB recharging cable.
I started the pump in stimulation mode as instructed. I gradually moved up the suction levels. Unfortunately this mode stops at level 5 suction which was still a little to gentle to initiate my let down. I decided to try the extraction mode and very quickly the milk started to flow. So don't despair if the stimulation mode isn't strong enough for you because the extraction mode goes up to level 9 which will give even the most vigorous feeding baby a run for it's money.
Once I got the best modes for me figured out the milk was quickly extracted and within 20mins I had drained both sides.
The pump is quiet enough that I can use it next to my sleeping baby without disturbing him.
The size is deceptive as this small pump packs a punch and is the perfect companion for any breastfeeding mama.

Headed out? Don’t forget your phone, wallet, keys and BREAST PUMP!
Whether it’s the freedom to express and leave my baby with my hubby or the freedom to express whilst on the move, it’s given me the FREEDOM to nurture my baby with my milk no matter where I am!
It fits so perfectly into my handbag that I am able to take it with me anywhere, and I can even charge it in the car!
Long drives are easier because I can express whilst my hubby is driving so that the baby has a warm feed on the journey without having to stop and even short drives are perfect because expressing is so fast that I’ve got a big feed of warm milk to use when we reach our destination and my baby becomes unsettled, without having to pop in to a feeding room whilst out and about, and anything that saves time is a MASSIVE win!!!
1:24 am
No more unexpected milk showers!
I didn’t realise how much easier (and more pleasant for my baby) breastfeeding could be until I started using this awesome pump!!!
Usually for feeds my breasts are exploding with milk, so when my baby latches he gets an absolute gush of milk sprayed all over his face, which is unpleasant for him and an extra challenge for me to try and get him latched back on.
Now all I have to do is express some milk prior to feeding and he isn’t left with an explosion of milk in his face!
I really do love it, and I’m certain he loves having more relaxed feeds, it’s just fantastic!!!

One small step for tech, one GIANT LEAP for Women’s Empowerment
It’s incredibly easy to charge, set up, use as well as clean- it’s super quiet so I can pump even during night feeds
The BEST bit however is how it makes me feel!!! The FREEDOM- not just to be able to have my baby looked after by someone else with the peace of mind that he will still be nourished with my breastmilk BUT I can physically accomplish SO much more
I can express milk before exercising so that my breasts don’t ache during a workout
I can express milk to ease discomfort when my baby sleeps for longer than usual rather than trying to get him to “dream feed” to ease my heaviness from being too full
I can express simply to give myself the opportunity to let someone else help me with the baby whilst I get other things done, whether that be one in one time with my other little ones, or catching up on chores or even simply fitting in some “self care” into my week (it is true what they say ‘you can’t pour from an empty vessel’)
I absolutely LOVE this gorgeous little device, for something so small it really has made a giant impact on my daily life!
12:56 am
I absoultly love this new pump
To be honest i only ever pump one side at a time because i usually feed on the other side.
Now after recieving the new beginnings single breast pump ive tested and used it a few times im totally in love with it...
Its so soft and gentle to use thru the night i dont wake bubba or the husband up,
Its compact light and easy to use,
I love where i place my breast it has a silicon pad which makes it more comfortable for me when im using the pump instead of the hard plastic that goes against my skin.
Also it has a circlar base where i can place the bottle on the table which i find great so it doesnt tip over which sometimes happens to my current one at night when im just getting myself out of bed to take the milk to the kitchen.
It came with two bottles a small one and a taller one which also feels very strong and studry bubba doesnt seem to have a problem using the teets from these bottles.
I cant find a fault and i love this pump so much more than my current one im using.

Pumping doesn't have to be painful!
I'm happy to say that my fear and hesitation was misplaced! The New beginnings pump is easy to use, gentle on your breasts and nipples, and pleasantly effective as milk extraction regardless of whether you are using it as a single or double pump.
With the added bonus of the pump motor being portable (it fits in a robe pocket), it makes tending to baby while pumping much easier.

Loving the pump more as time goes on
time saver. I used the pump at play group last Tuesday and every mum there was so envious of the pocket rockets size, quiteness and portability. I'm so glad that New Beginnings breast pumps have hit the market for use by all Aussie breastfeeding, committed & super busy but so deserving mums.

I wish I had this pump with my other babies.

I quite like this pump and would recommend to my mum friends

2:54 pm
Easy to use
2:03 pm
Wow so comfortable
I love that I could adjust the strength of let down setting as previously I have used other pumps that do not let you do this the just had the one settling.
I used the pump without the comfort cushion and found it to be very comfortable. In fact I didn’t even try with the comfort cushion.
I was super engorged at 11pm one night as my 14 week old did a huge stretch in her sleep and was able to pump 150mls in 5 minutes from one breast instant relief. So fast!
I love how portable it is always so easy to pack and take with me when I need it.
Also my daughter had decided to refuse the avent natural bottles I had and the shape of the teat on the new beginnings bottle was different and she took to it really easily.
Highly recommend this pump! So much in such a small pump.

Comfort ale and efficient

Efficient and super easy to use!
I can only compare with my spectra S2, and to me, they are on par with each other. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
The machine is fairly quiet. The pumping motion hurt a tad at first but I’m not sure if that’s because I haven’t pumped much, or I’m just used to the S2. Overall very happy with the product.
