Milk Stork Delivers Breast Milk Home Overnight While You Travel
Breastfeeding moms who want to travel are faced with unpleasant choices, such as pumping and emptying or trying to smuggle a suitcase full of frozen milk through airport security. Milk Stork night delivery service offers the best solution.
Traveling is such a logistical nightmare for nursing mothers because a woman’s body produces milk based on supply and demand: if she stops breastfeeding for a week during the trip, her body may not be able to produce milk when she returns. And if she wants to build up a freezer supply before leaving, she needs to find a way to get her body to produce more milk than usual – usually by expressing more milk every day for several weeks before she leaves. Not to spoil your idyllic view of motherhood, but if you’ve never done it: pumping sucks. And it takes a lot of your time.
This is why a service like Milk Stork sounds like heaven. They hint that for $ 99 a day (which can be reimbursed as travel expenses), Milk Stork will have refrigerated shipping containers waiting at your hotel when you arrive. You can send your baby day milk home every day. This means that for a week-long trip, you need to reserve one or two days instead of a full week. It’s expensive, but the mums (myself included!) Gave up the opportunity to travel due to the logistics of breast milk, so this is a good option. (If the cost is prohibitive for you, check out the DIY shipping instructions here .)
