“The breastfeeding supplies market in the US has recently observed the introduction of insured breast pumps approved by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Insurance companies will now cover the cost of these breastfeeding pumps, along with lactation counseling and other precautionary health services in the country. This has prompted most of the leading vendors to focus more on the production of insured breastfeeding pumps,” says Brijesh Kumar Chaubey, Lead Analyst, Consumer & Retail, Technavio Research
Manufacturers have launched nursing bras or breast pumping bras, which enable lactating mothers to express milk without the need to constantly hold the breastfeeding pump in place. These breast pumping bras help to hold the flanges of the breastfeeding pumps in place without causing any discomfort to the mother. These product enablers are becoming very popular, and will likely further propel the growth of the breastfeeding supplies market in the US during the forecast period.
