Guide Review - Milk Bands Nursing Bracelets for Breastfeeding Mothers
This is a great idea - a functional, easy way for breastfeeding mothers to keep track of their pertinent information while breastfeeding. These handy bracelets can be worn on either wrist. Though they do turn both sides out to say "right" or "left."
There are holes that mark hours and minutes of nursing with the use of little flexible pegs that sit in the holes. This just gets moved as your baby nurses. This prevents you from having to try to remember how long your baby last nursed and for how long.
I have a fairly normal sized hand, but the bracelet was tight to get on. Once on it was not too tight on my wrist or too loose. Though it made me not want to remove it often, as one handed removal wasn't really an option. The flexible pegs stayed in nicely and the set came with an extra peg in case you lost them, which given the size of the pegs, was a real concern.
