Products for covering up while nursing a baby have come such a long way since I had my first baby! I’ve been introduced to a product called Baby Bond. It is essentially to replace a nursing cover, but it is really more than that! Buy yours now and SAVE 25% by using the CODE: MTM It comes in 3 styles: the original, the flex and the couture. The difference between the Baby Bond Nursing product and typical nursing “covers” is just that, this product does not cover your baby.

I’m always happy to find another product that is made without Parabens, Phthalates, Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oil, PABA, Petrolatum, Paraffin, Diethanolamine or Animal-Derived Ingredients! Arbonne products have this commitment behind them along with many other benefits as well! I recently had the opportunity to try out some small samples of their skin care and make up products.
