Sometimes finding a bathroom to wash up in may be difficult when traveling. Honest Hand Sanitizer Spray is my only on-the-go option to keep my family's hands clean and moisturized. Hydration is important - especially when traveling. We also love it to be 100% raw, organic, and great tasting - the perfect solution! Harmless Harvest Coconut Water takes care of quality and taste while hydrating our bodies on long travel days! Winter weather can be rough on the skin, so a tube of Healing Balm is a must! I put a thin layer on my kiddos' bodies throughout the day and on their faces before bedtime to keep their skin nourished and protected.

Have Milk, Will Travel: Adventures in Breastfeeding
Looking for that perfect gift for your mom friends? Or something to add to your own list? The Pump Station & Nurtury™ founders Corky Harvey and Wendy Haldeman wrote the forewords for "Have Milk, Will Travel: Adventures in Breastfeeding," a new book of laugh-out-loud stories about life as the one-stop milk shop. And even better: half of the stories come from The Pump Station moms! Upcoming newsletters will feature excerpts to give you a taste of the milky goodness.
This month, our first excerpt comes from The Pump Station mom Adriann Cocker, who blogs at cockerchat.wordpress.com about loft living as a family in downtown Los Angeles.
In "Dinner Time," Adriann writes, "When we were eight months pregnant, we took a breastfeeding class with our local lactation specialists. We saw, among other things, a freshly minted newborn crawl up the chest of her mother to latch, ON HER OWN. And while they made sure to tell us how there might be issues - baby will favor one side, letdown may take some time, the first few days will be rough while your breasts get used to the suction - I was certain in my naivete' that I would be a breastfeeding all-star. I did buy some salve, convinced I'd never open it and would end up handing it down to my next new mom friend."
But pride goeth before a fall, right? Check out "Have Milk, Will Travel", available at your local Pump Station & Nurtury,™ to find out the rest of the story.
