Hello ladies! As a first time mom I'm learning about about a lot. I want to breastfeed my little one but know breast pumps can be expensive. I know insurances can cover a free breast pump and I wanted to hear your experience with asking for one. Is there a time frame when I can order one or can I order it whenever. What's the process like? I have the Molina healthcare plan, I know that plays a factor to what I can get. Help please!

if you are in the U.S., know that the ACA requires that your health insurance company pay for a pump. It is good to know your rights incase they give you the runaround.
Also, if you for whatever reason, can't get one through your insurance, I think you can rent them from hospital or buy a closed system used and replace certain parts on it... But I don't know much about that stuff.
I also went through Aeroflow for mine with my previous pregnancy. It was super easy.
