Quote of the week

David Cameron on whether The Thick of It accurately represents the Conservative publicity machine: "I love The Thick of It. V funny... but only true about the other lot (not)."

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

With only 3 parts, the Closer to Nature ™ breast pump is easy to clean and put together, and simple and effective to use. The soft-touch, flexible cup moulds to your breast for comfort and support. It comes complete with a milk storage bottle, and its own microwave steriliser box.

Very easy to use, clean, sterilise, and comes with one small bottle and teat so you don't need to go out and buy a whole load of bottles if all you want to do is express feed occasionally.

It's also perfectly comfy to use (even with very sore nipples!) and I have been able to regularly get 5oz in about 10 minutes of half-hearted pumping.

The bottle/teat it comes with is the closer to nature type, which is meant to more accurately resemble the human boob (although my nipples have never been an inch long!), and whether I've just been lucky or not, but my DS has had no problems with nipple confusion at all.

Also often on offer, so no need to pay full whack - check supermarkets and online shops for good deals - I paid £12 for mine.

Really good, really easy, with the one down side being that I sometimes leaked out of the cup bit if I wasn't positioned correctly.

Very Easy to use, the breast pump I used with my first child seems so fiddly compared to this one.

This one is both easy to put together (having just 3 parts to it), and easy to use.
