Hands free pumping?

jenndreier · January 2012

The EP post below reminded me, someone, possibly vtkendra, posted/raved about a hands free pumping "implement", maybe it hung around your neck? Can you remind me what that was called? I used this method

to pump hands free with DD, and it worked fine but I'm curious about this other thing that I can't remember the name of right now. Thanks so much in advance, Jenn

I don't know what vtkendra used but I have this and it works really well. I actually cut off the neck portion and used safety pins to make sure I dont move the velcro. It's been a great investment.

I had a bra, similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/Easy-Expression-Bustier-Pumping-Medium/dp/B002NUXHJQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1325981206&sr=8-2

I have the same one, its awesome. With my first, I didn't use hands free, what a mistake, this actually made pumping almost enjoyable.

I'm using this one right now. it has made such a difference. no more balancing bottles with my legs to try and read a magazine or something while pumping.

I use that one also, and I love it.

I have this exact same one, and hands free pumping really is a lifesaver. I also liked that it was easy to reach in for compressions when needed .

I just wore Target nursing tanks and was able to put the pump on then clip the tank back up and they stayed fine for working at my desk. In a pinch you can also use the Kellymom trick with two pony tail holders. I've heard the special bras are great but I did totally fine without and it was nice not having to use one more special piece of "equipment".

This exactly. I didn't use one with my first baby, but then used this for my second and third - kicking myself for not getting it with my first.

I also used this velcro brand contraption. I have an near-impossible-to-find bra size, so a pumping bra was not in the cards for me. I liked that this thing works for anyone.

You can also take any sports bra and cut some slits in it and use it for hands free pumping. A lot cheaper than the pumping bras and, to be honest, i actually find it holds up better than my pumping bra.
