Affiliate Disclosure

What this means for you

Mother & Main is reader-supported. Some of the links on this site are affiliate links - this means that if you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe are useful. The commission we may earn never influences which products we recommend, how we review them, or what we write about them.

How affiliate links work

When you click an affiliate link on Mother & Main and complete a purchase on the retailer’s website, we receive a small percentage of the sale. This is how affiliate marketing works - it’s a standard way for content publishers to earn revenue without charging readers directly.

The price you pay is always the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer. You are never charged more because of an affiliate link.

Our editorial standards

Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We research products independently, and our recommendations are based on:

• Evidence from published research and clinical guidance
• Expert input from midwives and other qualified professionals
• Real-world testing and reader feedback
• Honest assessment of value, safety, and usefulness

If a product doesn’t meet our standards, we don’t recommend it - regardless of whether an affiliate relationship exists. We will also tell you when we think something is overpriced or not worth buying, even when alternatives we link to earn us a commission.

Which affiliate programs we use

At the moment, the Amazon Associates program (amazon.com) is the only affiliate program we participate in. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

This may change as we add partnerships. We will always update this page when it does.

FTC compliance

This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255).

Where content contains affiliate links, we make this clear at the top of the page or in close proximity to the link itself. Review pages carry a one-line disclosure directly under the byline, and any other article that contains Amazon links carries the same note above the content.

Questions?

If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships or editorial process, please get in touch. We’re committed to being transparent about how this site works and how we make money.
