Breast feeding

The amount of products online is so overwhelming.:. I breasted my lo who is now 2, but this is a whole different situation... Il be working and want an electric pump that's discreet and quiet, and I guess all the bottles and accessories have to be the same brand as the pump? All the while I still want to use some bottles with a latch nipple! I'm becoming frustrated with my search could somebody point me in the right direction!:(

Re: Breast feeding

  • I know there was a previous post about pumps where a lot of people loved the Medela. I personally used the Avent double breast pump with DS and used it at work; it was quiet and got the job done. I liked it because you could adjust the pump speed when you first started every time. I also found that my son didn't like the Avent bottles so I would just pump into those, use storage bags, and we found the bottle he did like and used those for feedings.

    Try the specialty Breast Feeding board - lots of good tips over there.  

    I also think you can pump into one container, and then transfer the breast milk into any style bottle you choose, but I may be totally wrong on this.

    First see if your insurance covers it and what brands. Then choose between those.

  • Medela PISA is awesome. I actually had someone give me some Gerber bottles that fit the pump as well. Anything that you pump into can be transferred to another bottle for feeding if you wish.

  • Your insurance should be able to offer you a pump under the affordable healthcare act. With united, we get the medela pump in style. I think kellymom.com is a good breastfeeding resource.
