Help! Where to express in london?

7 replies

Timtilly · 19/10/2014 20:20

Going to london in December without bubba.
Happy expressing but wondering where I could get my lovely medela swing (and boobie!) out to pump. Anyone know of any nice feeding rooms which are quite private?
Also, what should I do regarding sterilising and storing my milk if out for the day?
We are staying two days, one night xx

Can't you express and store before you go (which sm assuming you are doing anyway) and then bf when you get back so just express at the hotel? Do you need to express in the day? Even if you do you don't need to keep it. Have a lovely time

Yes, ideally I need to express early morning, late morning, afternoon and evening.
It's just the late morning and afternoon when I'll be in the city with hubby and need a place to do it!

Well places like John Lewis and marks spencer have feeding rooms.
Surely anywhere with really nice loos would do for a one off?

How old will your baby be in December and have you left him/her before? I honestly would have found from quite early on that I could go morning to evening as a one off.

I also think that, if you are out and about for the day, you are over-complicating things if you try and express to a sterile standard and store. Couldn't you just express a bit off to comfort somewhere - John Lewis or other department stores tend to have feeding rooms, but decent loos would do with a hand pump if you aren't going to use the milk.

Sorry, I'm maybe missing something?

John Lewis have nice, bright and airy feeding rooms.

Harrods has a lush feeding room

Lots of places / attractions have parent and baby rooms. I was recently in the National Gallery which does! As pp have said John Lewis, Boots, Marks & Spencers etc often have good facilities - as do the Westfield shopping centres.

Depends what you're doing really!
