Military families - did you go through Tricare's preferred suppliers for your breast pump, or did you purchase one separately and submit for reimbursement? Which method worked better?
Many Congrats for your upcoming little one! I remember feeling exactly the same way when I was expecting! After looking into different options, I ended up going through Every Ounce and had such a positive experience with my Tricare breast pump. The whole process was surprisingly simple - you just fill out a quick form on their website (https://everyounce.com/pages/tricare-breast-pump), and they coordinate everything with Tricare and your doctor. They helped me pick a pump that worked for my lifestyle, and I didn't have to deal with any confusing paperwork. I think what I appreciated most was how they understood the military healthcare system - no explaining Tricare rules or having to follow up multiple times. I got to know about them from my sister and they did an amazing job for me as well. I hope this helps!
I was also in a similar situation last year! Used Every Ounce for my Tricare pump and they made it super easy - handled all the paperwork and doctor coordination. I barely had to do anything except choose my pump. They really know their way around Tricare. Hope this really helps you take one thing off your pre-baby to-do list! 💙
