www.medelabreastfeedingus.comif i concentrate really hard, i can remember what life was like before i had children. and if i concentrate even harder, i can vaguely recollect what it was like to be single.
in those days, i used to ask my friends' opinions on all sorts of important things, like, "is this shirt too slutty for a first date?" "i called him and he didn't call me back.... should i call him again?" or "which bar should i meet you at at 2am?"
my life these days is decidedly different. before my son was born, i'd heard ugly rumors of needing something called a "breast pump" which, contrary to its name was not sexy at all. worse than that, i had no idea which one to buy. "can't we just rent one?" asked my husband. um, no. no, we can't.
so i polled all my trusted mommy friends to get their opinions and to a one they all said "medela pump in style advanced." what makes this so different from the rest? the medela pump in style advanced was originally developed for hospitals and, in my experience, is the one most recommended by lactation consultants. the pump in style advanced has easy to use controls and uses a two-phase expression for maximum milk flow and, theoretically, less time "at the pump." it's as comfortable as one of these things can be and mimics a baby's natural nursing rhythm.
medela's pump in style advanced comes in a number of different styles, from backpack to shoulder bag to messenger bag, but unless you plan on traveling with your pump often, i'd save your money and pick the least expensive option. and take that saved cash to buy yourself a little something nice that has nothing to do with boobs.
