Best electric breast pump

Hi ladies, just wondering if anyone has any good reviews / preference for electric breast pumps.

I’m looking to get one but they’re a bit of an investment so want to make the right choice.

Let me know what one you have / if you’d reccomend it.

Also, is it worth getting a double or should I just stick to a single?

Thanks mamas ❤️

I tried a few pumps, including Elvie but found none of the hands free worked for me as well as Lola and lykke pump. I got the pump second hand and you can buy a new silicone parts set for like £17 I think. It also holds battery like an old school Nokia

I went to an infant feeding class at the hospital when I was pregnant and the team there recommended a brand on Amazon that's allegedly an Elvie dupe, Kissbobo. Haven't tried it yet but it's much more affordable and reviews are good

I highly recommend momcozy. I have the s9 pro. It’s hands free too

I have an Elvie, a friend lent it to me. Very expensive but I love it. Gentle and practical- I wear it in my bra, wireless and quick.

I use momcozy s9 ones. Definitely recommend x

I have the momcozy s12 and it’s a little noisy but it’s powerful. Love it because it’s wearable and I can do other things around the house at the same time.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Don’t want to leave my first born😭😭😭

Anyone else extremely sad and anxious to leave their first born😭

He’s 2 and we have never not put him to bed or be here for when he wakes up😭

I’m so sad and anxious about leaving him

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂
