Is anyone else absolutely fed up of that breast pump advert?

Anyone else finding a certain breast pump advert really relentless lately? The woman standing in her bra with the pumps attached. It keeps coming up on MN and I am just a bit done with it at this point.

No judgement at all on breastfeeding or pumping. I totally get it and I know it’ll be useful for some. I’m just tired of seeing the same thing over and over again.

Is everyone seeing it or have I triggered some kind of ‘new mum’ algorithm that won’t let go?”

I've got the same reoccurring advert and am 10 years on from being a new mum! Agree it's annoying

PragmaticIsh · 01/01/2026 08:47

I've not seen it once. Not sure if that helps! You could ask MNHQ on the Site Stuff section.

NeedANewOne25 · 01/01/2026 08:50

I agree, it’s one I’d like to hide too.

Interested in this thread?

It’s the Monsoon children’s Christmas pyjamas one I’m sick of - still getting it, and to me they don’t even look Christmassy!

HeidiHighHoDeHo · 01/01/2026 08:51

I’m keep getting served up the ad with a snotty nosed child.

I hate that advert.

Justlostmybagel · 01/01/2026 08:51

My eyes automatically skip over adverts now so I don't even notice that I'm being advertised to. Unless, they're the buggy ones that take over your whole screen.

Is there not something on the add that you can click and it'll give you the option to not see that one again?

shellyleppard · 01/01/2026 08:52

Breast pump, children Christmas pyjamas and the one phone....all regular adverts...... I'm way past needing a breast pump!! 🤣🤣

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 01/01/2026 08:59

I’m still getting crotchless pants.

They seem to have ramped up lately. And now there is weird male underwear too.

I don’t want breast pumps or crotchless pants either my morning cuppa.

Why can’t they advertise plants or something pleasant to look at? Or art, or bedding, or toys? Just not fucking crotchless knickers.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 01/01/2026 09:09

The breast pump ad is one every thread I click on. The number of ads on this site now is ridiculous.

I'm 61 😂 and yeah - keep seeing the breast pump ad - too late

EmpressaurusKitty · 01/01/2026 09:57

I still keep getting the breast pumps ad, & also the one with the twee pyjamas. And I’m definitely not a new mum.

BillieWiper · 01/01/2026 10:02

I see it all the time. It is kind of annoying. It's just not remotely relevant to my life and I don't really want to think of things being attached to my breasts?!

sashh · 01/01/2026 10:22

I'm getting fed up of it too.

mum2jakie · 01/01/2026 10:27

Less annoying than the Ann Summers ad I also keep getting!

InflagranteDelicto · 01/01/2026 10:34

The annoying breast pump ad - long long past that stage and the equally annoying online pharmacy ad. I can tell you about online pharmacies, they're a pain in the arse.

CarnationAndPoppy · 01/01/2026 10:42

Breast pump ad and snotty nosed child constantly - both irritating.

Vroomfondleswaistcoat · 01/01/2026 10:46

I'm getting the breast pump one too! I wonder if it's because my DIL is pregnant so there are lots of conversations in the house about pregnancy when she is here? She also suffers badly from pregnancy sickness and I'm getting lots of ads about that too....

At least the mum in the breast pump advert looks as though she has just had a baby and isn't all slim and toned and like she's never been near a baby in her life.

TreesOfGreen99 · 01/01/2026 11:38

Another vote to get rid of the snotty nosed kid. Will someone please give her a tissue!

awrbc81 · 01/01/2026 11:41

I keep getting ads for houses for sale in Liverpool?! (Approx 2h drive from where I live!)

Not seen the breast pump ad but tend to skip past them anyway

I agree. I understand that MN wants to make as much money as it possibly can but all of the adverts are a PITA.

It would be interesting to know if the sales the advertisers make via MN make up for the cost of displaying their ads.

TheFunSponge · 01/01/2026 11:46

Breast pump and snotty child for me too! Way past this stage. I haven't seen the Ann Summers one for a few weeks though.

walkingaroundsostrenegrene · 01/01/2026 11:51

Yes I am too OP. It looks like she's got big eyes in her bra staring up at her. Gets on my nerves.

TreesOfGreen99 · 01/01/2026 11:51

Also, now I’m thinking about it….
Why so many inappropriate sponsored posts within a topic. Eg Higher Education - so if you’re over there you’ve probably got DC 16/17 up to early twenties.
The sponsored posts include “what do you think about toys” and “cough medicine for children”. Frankly an ad for Ann Summers would be more appropriate 🤣

skyeisthelimit · 01/01/2026 12:26

I've seen it repeatedly. It just looks weird.
