Breastfeeding is a tough gig, there’s no doubt about it. Many of us assume that it will just come naturally. How hard can it be? Baby + boob = blissful nursing experience. The reality is a bit different. 

Whether it’s issues with milk supply, pain or discomfort, sometimes breastfeeding can seem like it’s not working. This can be devastating for some mothers, especially those who imagined themselves feeding their babies long term.

Alleviating these painful issues (and therefore reducing the chances of mastitis occurring) was the inspiration behind the creation of the LaVie Lactation Massager, a nifty little tool that can help improve milk flow, increase milk supply, reduce engorgement and relieve clogged ducts. Yep, it’s pretty darn clever (and did we mention it’s waterproof? GENIUS!) Designed in collaboration with breastfeeding experts, the LaVie uses gentle vibration to stimulate milk flow and break down blocks and sore spots.
