An honest review of the Elvie silent cordless breast pump
Elvie pride themselves on bringing women’s technology out of the dark ages, wanting to improve women’s lives through smarter technology.

Our breastfeeding journey
I’d NEVER even considered it wouldn’t be an option to breast feed. I skipped the free breast feeding classes, and, wanting a breast reduction all throughout my upper school years to lighten the load, didn’t go any further with it only because there was a possibility that the operation could have meant I wouldn’t be able to breastfeed.
