Wearable pump recommendations?

I have a spectra 2 that I really love. I’m looking for a wearable pump I can use during the day when my baby is home with me. There are so many options! What has worked for you?

The Pumpables genie advanced is compatible with the spectra tubing and flanges, and there’s the spectra Cara cups that work with it too. I’m doing that since it’ll open up more options based on what’s dry but I have 3 entire sets of regular spectra flanges so I don’t know how often I’ll bother with the cara cups, probably depends on how much I’m bending over. I also have the Pumpables liquid kit (silicone flanges) and I’ve used those with my spectra, but I prefer a hard plastic flange.

I got the Bellababy brand on Amazon and they were good. Different tempos and suction settings, auto shut off after 30 minutes

I have the spectra s1 which i like too but for wearables I have to Momcozy m5s
I like them, no complaints really. I get about the same amount of milk as the with the spectra. What i like is that if you get two, they’re separate motors, so you can make one setting higher/lower than the other. Idk why my one nipple can handle more suction than the other.

They’re the only wearables i have /used so I don’t know how they compare 🤷🏼‍♀️

Really happy with the Bellababy as well!!

I'm going to be getting the Legendairy milk lmani i2 plus + charging dock wearable breast pump. Because it has a charging dock I can easily charge my breast pumps with no worries. Also it helps produce more milk and from the reviews it's silicon and soft to put on your boobs. Another awesome thing is it comes with a flange measuring thing so you can see what your size is.

how long have you been using your M5s I’m due in December and I used the S12 with my son last year but the pumps stopped working after a couple months but I heard you need to change the motors out every 3 months. Anyways how is the output and suction?

Output is as much as I get with the spectra and suction is really really strong.
I’ve only been using for about a month

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡

My seven year old

Is out of control. Her dad and I share 50/50 and when she comes to my house she is so mean. And idk what to do

Took 9 week old to a family party where there was loud music and she was next to the speaker for most of the time (about 3 hours). She slept through most of it. Do you think she has hearing loss from this?

Freaking out right now :(

Struggling in the 4 month regression

How are people getting out of the 4 month regression? I’ve been looking it up and it says I need to be trying to put him down drowsy but awake but this does not work for my LO. Every time we do this he ends up being wide awake and after almost an hour of trying we have to contact nap/rock to sleep. I want to avoid rocking to sleep because now when he wakes up in the night he needs to be rocked back to sleep which he never used to need.

Nights are constantly broken because we are up 2-3 times to rock him back to sleep. Please give me your tips on how to survive this and how to get out of this!! Constantly feel like I’m failing and doing something wrong
