Breast Pumps
Hi ladies, my little man is only a week old but I'm thinking of trying to express as I really don't feel comfortable with the idea of BF in public (don't know why as it doesn't bother me if I see other people doing it!).
I know a lot of people recommend the medela breast pump but its far too expensive! So can anyone recommend a decent cheaper pump? Also are the hand pumps as hard to use as a lot of people seem to say??
Thanks xx

Some people would say you HAVE to have electric but I've managed to express every feed for nearly 7 months with a manual pump so it's no big deal!
If you want to save a bit of money how about looking on ebay? A lot of people buy pumps then decide not to express/it doesn't work for them so they sell them on. You would sterilise it before using anyway so it would be good as new!

I'm with you on the feeding in public issue btw- don't know why, I just chicken out each time!

Would definately recommend this pump.
