I got it with my pump which was covered by insurance but this is the one I got!

I mean.. I have dapple baby I think. I've never used any other but I wouldn't hesitate to try other brands. I got the one I have at target. I imagine they're all the same just different prices
@Michelle is there a brand you recommend for pump wipes
@Megan can you send me a link for the pumping bag
I’ve been exclusively pumping since day 1 and I work as a home health nurse so I’m in my car most of the day and have to pump on the go and this has been the easiest way for me to do it. I got a bag specifically for my pumping gear, it’s like a diaper bag but the entire bottom section is insulated so I put two ice packs in there. I pack two separate sets that are put together so they are easy to put on and set up my pump without having to dig out and find parts. I carry the lids for all my bottles so I can just cap the bottles and place those in the insulated part. I carry bottle wipes to clean the duck bills and flanges and last I have a breastfeeding cover to wear over my pumps so no one can see me pumping while in my car. And I wear a pumping bra to make it easy to put them in place and be hands free
Nursing bras (I have a kindred bravely bra) and nursing tops (ive bought and like bearsland tops), portable double electric breast pump (i have spectra S9), pump wipes, a lunch box to store pumped milk in fridge or a cooler if you don't have (if I pump more than once at work, I refrigerate my parts until next use), milk bags and a sharpie to label them Talk to your boss BEFORE you return to make sure you can pump and that you will have the time and set expectations. That is so important. bring a backup manual pump if you have one. Get multiple sets of parts if you can! My advice is to not invest in a wearable pump if you haven't used one because sometimes it's a regret and disappointment. I'm hands on whrn I pump and those pumps don't let me do compression due to being in the way. The idea is that you wanna be comfortable and familiar with your pump so you can get the job done effectively. Hope this helps!
Invest in hand pumps or the collectors. If you don’t want to carry your pump all the time but I do suggest it cause if you go without pumping/nursing for more than 7-8 hours you will spill out. Might vary depending on your flow
