Medela PISA - which bag?

Is the only difference the styles of bag? They all seem to be priced differently so I was wondering. The Tote seems most appealing right now.

I think I'm getting the PISA rather than freestyle as I heard the suction is better.

I'll be a SAHM for a bit - but want to pump so my husband and daughter can feed the baby also, plus try an build up a stash in the freezer.

Also is it best to pump into medela bottles then freeze in bags? Ultimately I'll feed the milk in Dr Browns bottles.

Thanks for all help!

I have no earthly idea....

Maybe try posting on Parenting? As BTDT moms they may have more answers.

I vaguely recall hearing that freezing in the bags is easier - takes up less space or something.

I dont know anything about the PIS - I have the Freestyle.

In terms of storage, I pump into the Medela bottles and freeze in the Lansinoh bags - they take up less room in the freezer and hold more milk than the Medela bags, but you can pump directly into the Medela bags. I leave the Medela bags in my pump bag in case I forget/run out of bottles. I also feed DD from Dr. browns bottles (which if you were pumping and feeding her right away, you could pump directly into as well).

Thanks for the storage advice - I appreciate it!

As for the bag - might as well get the cheapest then!
