Knowing that all of my extra money was soon going to be spent on Zooey, for Christmas I was going to treat myself to one last huge gift/purchase before the reality of mommy-hood set in. I had my stash of cash set aside and my 25% off any Coach purchase coupon ready. Then approximately 5 days after Zooey's birth reality set in and I realized that it was inevitable....if I was going to do this whole breastfeeding thing I was going to have to buy a pump. So, instead of making a pilgrimage to the beautiful, shiny, and new Coach store at Chesterfield Mall I made a trip downstairs with the lactation consultant at St. Luke's (we were there 2 days to treat Zooey's jaundice). The consultant excitedly said, "Let's go shopping!" And so I went shopping at the "breastfeeding store" on St. Luke's maternity floor. While there I purchased a $280.00 pump called the Pump In Style (note stylish and discreet pump concealing bag in picture to left). Like any fabulous ladies bag many accessories are available for purchase. Many which I already own ranging in price from $8.99 for extra storage bottles to $18.99 for special freezer storage bags. Therefore, I have easily spent $400, which could have purchased a pretty decent sized Coach bag, maybe even a tiny Louis Vuitton. Oh well, at least the milk is free.
