Breast pumps. Electric really worth the higher price?
Hi Girls/Ladies
as the heading says really. I need to buy a pump as I want to express so that my other half can help with the feeding ones a day or so (so I don't need to express for all feeds).
This is my first little one and I find the info confusing. Is it really easier with electric (I'm all for easy!!)? Is it worth the extra money to go electric? They are quite a bit more. And would you consider buying a second hand one (like off ebay) to help with the money side? Or can that be dangerous (healthwise) somehow?
Anyone got any experience of pumps?

I am EBM on all feeds and topping up with FF - as we had issues latching - I would say if your not expressing that often a manual would be fine ( the tommee tippe one is a tenner at asda at the mo and comes with microwave steriliser
... I brought my pump new it was 88 pounds in boots - however I have since looked on ebay as I didnt consider to look first time as I have debated getting a second so I can pump both breasts at once x
I hope this helps.
