I had dd2 a week ago and for various reasons I am needing to express - currently the main issue is encouraging supply but in the longer term I'll probably be mix feeding so will want to keep pumping so I can give ebm at times.
I've got a medela swing atm but could really do with a double pump to make the most of expressing time (I also have a pre schooler so time is limited!) - the hospital will rent me an Ardo Calypso (£35 for a month) but I've also seen the Ameda Lactaline and Spectra 3 are reasonably priced to buy on Amazon and get mostly good reviews.
So I wondered if anyone might have any wisdom they could share - should I rent the Ardo for now and then just go back to the Medela when my supply is more established, or is it worth investing a bit more in a double pump of my own?
Thanks
