Giveaway: Evenflo Comfort Select Breast Pump

This giveaway is now closed.

Ladies, this is one of the highest value giveaways I have ever had the pleasure of hosting here at Family Musings. And I am so happy to do this, not just because I might get a little extra traffic, but because I get to talk about breastfeeding again!

Back when my daughter was just born, I immersed myself in the world of breastfeeding. I read mom blogs that focused on the topic, as well as being an active participant in forums that focused on positive breastfeeding experiences. For a while, it seemed like breastfeeding was the only thing I talked about, on my blog or IRL! (Many apologies to my father and brother!)

Now that Babin is on the way and I am still nursing Charlotte, I don't feel any less passionate about the subject of breastfeeding, but I feel there is less for me to say as I've processed the relationship more and gathered more experience. One might say the honeymoon period is over. :)

Well, what is it I am giving away you might ask? Mom Central sent me an Evenflo Comfort Select Performance Breast Pump to try out. And, I have one to giveaway to a lucky reader, along with 2 boxes of nursing pads! (Details below.)

My first impression was a positive one. I like that a mom can set each side of the pump up at different speeds and pressure. This helps mimic what a baby will do, sucking differently at each side, and at different points of the nursing session.

Pumping is never as much fun as actual nursing. Using a machine to extract milk is harder than just letting your baby get the milk themselves. But it is worth it if you have to work away from your baby. Even though it has been almost a year since I pumped regularly to keep my supply up, I still remember that it made me feel good to keep up the nursing relationship while we were away.

If you want to know more, you can visit a special Evenflo website on Mom Central dedicated to the Evenflo Comfort Select Performance Breast Pump. It has a special section where moms can share breast pumping tips. Everyone that shares a tip will be entered in a giveaway to win one of three Evenflo Comfort Select Performance Breast Pumps and boxes of nursing pads! So, if you don't win here, you might win there!


How to Enter: Leave a comment below telling me who would be using the pump if you won (it can be you, a friend, a family member, or anyone else you know who needs one). I will randomly draw 1 winner next Saturday. There are four ways to enter and you can do any of them you like, for up to four entries:

    I'd use it! I've been pumping for 4 years now for 3 kids...and when a rep told me that Evenflo revamped their pump, I thought to myself, I wish I could try it and see for myself :)

    I’m not pregnant yet, but have been trying for months. We hope to be pregnant very soon! I’d love to get a evenflo breast pump in advance and save some money.

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces...

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t...

Note to Self

Image
This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti...
