What breast pump did you register for or do you have?

I used a Dr. Brown's Manual for when after DD was born b/c I never thought to call my insurance company to find out if I had coverage and they are so expensive. Well, long story short.. I have 100% coverage and I'm so happy about it but I have no clue which Breast pumps are good and which are not. So.. if you ladies could post a pic and name of the one you have or have registered for I would appreciate it so much!!! Thank you!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon

That's fabulous - congratulations!

Are you going to be pumping a lot or just occasionally?

I'd do the Medela Freestyle if money was no object. But I'm going to be home with the baby and plan to only pump occasionally, so I'm planning to get the Medela Swing, which is the single electric pump.

Another vote for the freestyle.

I never used the hands free part though.

Re: What breast pump did you register for or do you have?

I've done a lot of research on this and am going with the pump in style. I contacted a lactation person on this and since I will be home, and not pumping outside of the home at all...then I don't need the freestyle.

Plus I hear it's harder to get replacement parts for freestyle vs. the PIS..

If those are both too expensive I hear the Ameda Purely yours is a great option and less expensive.

i have the freestyle- very easy to use the hands free and so easy to take any place - if money was not an object definetly get this one - i used mine for a year

as for replacement parts - i have no problem finding them at BBB or BRU - they are not expensive but come in packs of 2
