posted 1st Jul
I am planning on breast feeding, but I have no idea what brand of breast pump to buy! SO I was wondering what brand of breast pumps did/do you ladies use and recommend?? Thanks so much for your comments!

Absolutely! Medela Pump in Style Advanced. You can get it in a briefcase style or the newer backpack style. They come with a built in cooler, storage compartment, battery backup & you can get tons of stuff. The collection bottles can be used as a regular bottle also. It is easy to clean & you can get the sterilizing bags. sterilizes the parts in the microwave in a few minutes. I know you can order them online at www.babiesrus.com plus they have all the accessories. For sure get a double pump though. Saves tons of time. They also have a sports bra that is just for pumping. It holds the funnels in place so you can be hands free. I never bought one, but heard they were extremely handy.

first check your insirance company, because theres no point in buying one if they cover it. second, i have a medela double electric. pretty much with medela brand, the more you pay the better the pump will be. i dont know anything about ameda pumps, but people like those also.

I also have the Ameda and have tried the Medela and felt the Ameda was better. If you are only going to need to pump everynow and then, I would get the Medela Harmony manual it was really good.

My Ameda was more then $100 less then the Medela and works better. So the more you pay does not always mean the better you get.

Medela pump in style advanced.

Every woman on here is going to swear up and down theirs were the best. Just do a little research, look at reviews...

Also, I recommend not getting one until after your baby is born or right before. Just in case it doesn't work or your breasts aren't "pumpable"

I believe she just meant with the Medela.

Oh!!!

And if you're going to be a stay at home mom who pumps occasionally, I'd get a manual or a single electric pump.

i have a Lansinoh double electric pump and like it. it was about 150 dollars. i think they're basically the same as ameda pumps.
