Electrical breast pumps

[Sineadb88]

Hi lovelies ❤️

I am pregnant with baby number 2 and looking for recommendations on the best hospital grade double electrical breast pumps. With baby number 1 I never planned to breast feed but as soon as he was born and placed onto me he latched on within seconds. I had not planned to breast feed so hadn’t researched breast pumps. The midwife advised me that my nipples were too flat and that I would be best getting a breast pump to continue. They advised me to get the medela swing so hubby got sent to boots and I went with it. I feel like I did do well with the medela swing but hated being attached to a plug socket and obviously this time around I will have a toddler and a new born.

So my questions -

are there better hospital grade pumps out there?

are there any hands free pumps that have just as good suction ?

What’s your recommendations?

TIA ❤️❤️

Hi @Sineadb88 thanks for posting! If you're still on the lookout for breast pump recommendations, you might like our guides to Mumsnetters' best breast pumps and best wearable breast pumps. If you have any thoughts or feedback on the articles, do get in touch 💐

Did you decide which one to get yet @Sineadb88?

@ExplodingSmittens not yet unfortunately. I’m so indecisive. I have researched and researched and researched but there is just so many different ones. I’m considering going back to the medela again since I knew it worked for me and scared to spend a fortune on a breast pump and it turns out no use for me.

do you have any recommendations ? Xxx
