I currently have an electric pump which is not hands free (ardo calypso double pump) which I find a lot more comfortable on my breasts (does not feel like it’s pulling too hard) than my alternative hands free pump (jheppbay double electric pump) which sits in my bra but always feels like it’s tugging quite hard on a low setting and also is really difficult to see if it is in the right position and if the milk is flowing when it’s sat in my bra.

i want a hands free pump which is comfortable and also easy to see if it’s in the correct position and the milk is flowing.

does anyone have suggestions for a good hands free / wearable breast pump that stays put well and is gentle on the breasts? I am happy to buy a more expensive one if it is good :) thank you!!!

also any tips on the best type of bra for a hands free pump as my nursing bra doesn’t really hold it in place very well!

I used a spectra S1 which isn’t hands free completely but it’s easier to do things as the connecting leads are quite long if that makes sense, so I could put the station down and be cooking, for example, while pumping.

I bought a sports bra and cut small holes in it which the flanges bit (I think that’s their name) could fit through as I couldn’t find a bra that worked for me and this supported me much better.

I exclusively pumped that way for 6months for my youngest while having 2 toddlers running round.
