Manual breast pumps?

I'm looking to EBF this little one when it arrives and wanted feedback on Manual breast pumps... I can't lug a big one into work, and don't even know which one to buy, I just wanted feedback on if there are some really good ones out there I should look into first... TIA!

I got a nice medela one from the hospital that they gave me and it works great.

I have this one. I like it.

If you're gonna be pumping at work it's gonna be better to have an electric. Medela makes them in all sizes and they look like they're in a purse. If you're pumping for work it's better To splurge on a good efficient one. You can go single electric if u want a more compact one but If you're limited on time then go double.

Check with your insurance company. Many cover breast pumps.  

I got this one

Oh thanks for the feedback ladies!! For the small manual ones how long does it take to pump and how much do you normally get?

I pump about 15 minutes on each breast and I can get 8ozs out of each breast.

with the manual i got around 2 oz in 30 minutes
with electric i got about 6oz in 30 minutes

I BF'd DD but I never pumped, I just manually expressed and it was SO frustrating... I'm just gonna bite the bullet and get a pump this time around, save the headache!

I also got the medela from the hospital. You should check with the hospital to see if they provide one

Eh, I doubt it, It's a military hospital, and they're so undermanned I doubt they do stuff like that... Way too many patients and not enough resources!

lwhen i was actually able to pump, i used evenflo.

i really liked it. my grandmother bought it for me at kamrt for 20 bucks. used it for 2 weeks (lost all my milk). its really comfortable. it hurt the first couple times, but, i dont think i used it right. after that, it was absolutely fine.

it comes with one pump and a 9oz bottle to store your milk in. the one that i got.

thanks! I got alot of great input, and I'm really only seeing Evenflo and Medela as good brands, lol... Atleast I have a target area now!

when i pumped, i got 2oz out of each in 15-20 min.
