What kind of pump for occ outings and daddy feedings?

arcook0307

First of all, I will be staying at home with LO, so I don't need a HUGE stash, but would like a moderate stash for emergencies, outings, and daily daddy feedings.  I have looked at the Medela Swing.....but saw that the bad reviews were kinda serious.  Mold that grows in it that you can't get to to clean out? Ick.   Recommend your daily use pump please.

Ameda Purely Yours.  Not as expensive as medela and just as good.  Also, if you are pumping to replace a feeding you'll probably want a double anyway.  But, the ameda can be used as a single pump too if you want to pump one side while your LO eats from the other.

I like my Ameda Purely Yours, but I pump 3 times a day. I'm not sure you really need that much. I have a manual for backup, and I've been surprised at how well that works. I have a Lansinoh and I got it from drugstore.com for like $25.

I don't have a single electric but that is what I would recommend.  I have a Medela PISA and then the Medela manual (I think it's called Harmony) but my breasts do not respond well at all to the manual.

I have the manual Medela brandone. It's been fine for having a bit extra breastmilk around (I never have more than 20 or so oz. in the freezer). I wouldn't buy an electric if you only need a little bit of pumping done, frankly. hth

I like my Medela Harmony (manual). I am currently SAH, so I just like to have a little extra milk sometimes. Works perfectly for that! Oh, and it's cheap and easy to clean
