The Breastfeeding Series on That's Total Mom Sense August is Breastfeeding Awareness Month so I am bringing you The Breastfeeding Series on That’s Total Mom Sense. A 3-part series with leaders in the industry. Some people feel breast is best and others think fed is best and I’m here to be an objective insight and provide perspective for you because in the end, you have to trust your mom sense. So whether you breastfeed, formula feed, pump, or use donor milk, it’s entirely up to you. However, it is important to destigmatize breastfeeding in modern day society. I want you to know your options, the benefits, hear from medical professionals, public figures, and legal experts on lactation regulations in the workplace which you can use to your advantage. I hope you feel empowered by the Breastfeeding Series on “That’s Total Mom Sense.” Introduction Breastfeeding. For some, it’s a magical, bonding experience and others, it’s painful and triggering or non-existent. For some reason though, speaking to a new mom about breastfeeding has become a loaded conversation. Today, we’re going to change that and destigmatize breastfeeding whether you’re in favor or not. I’m happy to share my journey and honest opinions, and I’m excited to bring on thought leaders to share their knowledge to commemorate Breastfeeding Awareness Month all August long. Today I am joined by Patty Gatter, founder of The Breastfeeding Shop, a family owned business that supplies mothers who choose to breastfeed with the proper help, guidance, and accessories they need to nourish their babies. Patty is a mother of two boys, a wife to an amazing husband and a serial entrepreneur. Like most women, she’s got multitasking down pat. She comes from a lineage of entrepreneurs and has worked in the healthcare industry for over 15 years. When the Affordable Care Act made it a requirement for insurance to cover breast pumps, Patty jumped at the opportunity to make this an equalizer for all new moms. She combined her love and passion for being a mother and breastfeeding with her entrepreneurial spirit and launched, The Breastfeeding Shop. She not only provides top of the line breast pumps like Medela, Spectra and Willow to expecting moms, the company aids mothers in their breastfeeding journey with consultants available via telehealth 24/7. When Patty was in college, she felt inspired by an article she read in Glamour about a woman who started a business and was able to offer her employees a team working environment that catered to their busy “mom” schedules”. It made an impression on her and so she did exactly that.

PATTY GATTER & LORA STEFFIE: Making the Most of Your Breastfeeding Journey

Have you started your Military Pregnancy &amp; Postpartum Checklist yet? If you have, you know TriCare will cover your breast pump and other supplies, but do you know how to actually order your pump and accessories? Don't feel bad if you answered, "no" because I was right there with you when I had my first baby. Honestly I had to google it and then just randomly chose a company that said they fulfilled TriCare prescriptions. Back then I had no idea that each breast pump company offered different pumps, and that ALL OF THEM were covered by tricare...so my lesson for you today is, why not order from a company that has the largest selection of pumps you can choose from? AKA The Breastfeeding Shop! VIEW THE FULL EPISODE NOTES: www.themilitaryworkingmom.com/episode037 No matter what region you fall in, Tricare Covers essentially the same items across the board with a slight few differences if you are overseas or on TriCare Select or Reserve.ALL TriCare regions and types cover one breast pump kit per birth event. The easiest way to get a pump without paying is to send your prescription to a breast pump supply company such as The Breastfeeding Shop.Pump accessories that come with the pump are a set of flanges, tubing, valves and membranes, and collection bottles.Tubing and tubing adapters: 1 set per birth event.Locking rings: 2 every 12 monthsBottles: 2 replacement bottles and caps/locking rings every 12 months following the birth eventBottle caps: 2 every 12 months after the birth eventValves/membranes: 12 for each 12 months following the birth eventNipple shields/splash protectors: 2 sets (2 shields/set) per birth event when a physician prescribesIf something happens and you need a different size flange or something breaks, just get a prescription from your physician and the part will be covered.90 Milk Storage Bags per month following the birth event and supplied up to 36 months after are covered with no prescription. If you overproduce and require more than 90 bags, you can get a prescription from your physician and submit to your breast pump supplier.With a prescription, a Maternity Belt/Wrap and/or Compression Socks are covered under Tricare. However, they are very particular about the prescription for these items. The Breastfeeding Shop makes it easy by supplying an approved prescription form/example on the website. Don't believe us?
