Breast Pumps

[yelloweskimo]

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone recommend a good breast pump? I will be returning to work after 3 months and would love to keep up giving my bubs breast milk regularly. I am looking at the medula swing electric one - does anyone know how much this costs in australia? Or does anyone else have a recommendation for a good one to use daily with approx cost?
Thank you very much!!

U can rent the medalla electric breast pumps from chemist or from the Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA). They are certainly cheaper than buying it. You will still need to get the pump as the rental is only for the machine. I rented mine (from a chemist) for about AUD80/minth but it's much cheaper from the ABA.

I used an Avent electric (Isis I think it's called). I found it great once I removed the silicone inserts as before that it would leak, afterwards I had no probs!
