After a lecture from my midwife on breast feeding, I’ve decided to not exclusively express, but to mostly breast feed and then express for times when I might not be there but little man needs his milk..
I was looking at hospital grade but now I’m thinking that’s probably not necessary.
Anyone looked at pumps yet, or has pumped before and has recommendations?

I loved the elvie fits in your bra so you don’t have to sit down and pump.

I looked at elvie but the price made me want to cry 😅

you can get cheaper ones! The newer Elvies are pricey but the older ones are okay x

I like my lansinoh and the hakaa for a quick session. I also used the elvie catch for extra little bits when baby is feeding from the other side. Also depends on how often you expect to be away from baby i guess! In the first few months or so the hakaa sufficed for us because i literally never left him 😂

I’ve had my eye on the elvie ones but my plan is to wait until Black Friday sales or use my boots points to take a chunk of the money off! 🤣

yeah I know I got it brought as a gift
And I was glad as i felt like I was forever pumping 😂

I looked £160 but not wireless

if I was exclusively pumping I’d splash out.. but my midwife made me feel bad 😂

the cost of stuff in general is making me want to cry 😅😅😅

oh I know!! We're lucky that our parents/grandparents are getting the big things (cots, bouncers, sterilisers etc) so I only really have to worry about the silly extras...like breast pumps lol

yeah we are the same, but it’s still like oh my gosh, this is a nightmare 😂

I loved my Elvie but know they aren't cheap. Medela are also very good and much cheaper. I didn't get on with a tommee tippee one I was given it just never seemed to fit or get much
