Looking to start expressing milk so that my partner can do a bottle or 2 for our 4 week old. Does anyone have any recommendations for pumps?
Is there any particular time I should pump or just whenever? Sorry all very new to me!

Hi my baby girl is 5 weeks and I’ve now started exclusively pumping. I have the electric spectra 1 pump which is amazing! You can pump both sides at the same time. Highly recommend

Not a pump recommendation but I use collection cups. I leak a lot and collect between 3-4 ounces a day so it’s enough for one bottle. I put them on first thing in the morning for 30 min (when I leak the most) and then on the opposite boob to what I’m nursing through out the day.

I use momcozy s12 pro , used for my first child and using for my second now x

I got the kissbobo pumps off of Amazon which were relatively cheap for two wearable pumps. I used them for my first and now second baby

I just got the Medela motion wearable pump and it's brilliant, the bits can go in the dishwasher and it's simple to put together. It works great for me and has a good battery life. I got mine off Vinted to save some money!

Eufy S2 is the best pump I’ve had - pricy but worth it (especially if you can suffer from clogged ducts as it has a massage and heating function). I bought mine on Amazon and used the baby wishlist discount.
I also exclusively pumped with my first and liked the medela freestyle hands free but, it has holes at the top so, if you need to bend down (I had a particularly fussy baby) it’s not the best.
I’d also avoid medela magic in bra - the tech is terrible on it & malfunctioned like crazy causing nipple damage for me! I also found it super painful (despite the right flange sizes).

I use the momcozy m5. Just the single pump from Amazon.
I’m combi feeding. Breast and expressing milk for the odd bottle.
This pump is more than good enough for that. But I did find I had to buy some smaller flanges (the bit the nipple sits in). Because I didn’t seem to be collecting much milk and was concerned that the smallest flange it came with wasn’t creating a good enough seal x
