Best wearable breast pump with extra flange sizes?

[Pessimist]

Am doing triple feeding and the pump I'm using is great but a bit industrial. Would like to buy a wearable pump for some of the feeds so I can get on with some housework instead of being chained to the sofa like a dairy cow 8 times a day.

Any suggestions? I don't have a big budget (£100ish) but would like one with some different flange sizes so I don't have to faff about ordering extras.

Momcozy was great but I did have to buy smaller flanges (most women do, the 24 mm isn't right for most women). I couldn't really get on with housework, you still need to be still, but I did have hands free. I could get up to grab a coffee but not do dishes or vacuum

I have an Elvie but I’m not sure that I would necessarily recommend it. I found it quite temperamental - firstly, to get it positioned correctly so that milk comes out (and therefore easily knocks out of place when you move) and secondly it disconnects from the app quite easily if you move not that far away from your phone. I ended up using it by standing and holding the pump to my breast which defeats the point of a wearable pump.

Also the app records ml of milk pumped but I found it often was incorrect.

It’s possible it’s just user error though…!

Also you're not meant to use wearable pumps more than once or twice a day. They are not as good at getting milk out like the Spectra for example so it won't stimulate as well and also could give you mastitis.

I pumped almost full time for a while so I know how annoying it is.

Thanks - I'm using a Spectra at the moment - even if I only use the wearable one twice a day it means I'm not stuck on the sofa twice a day.

Do you have a lactation consultant or any kind of support? Triple feeding is brutal and something usually advised for a few days/weeks, you can't do it long term (well, you can, but it's soul destroying).

I found pumping incredibly hard and I only did it when I was back at work so someone else was giving the bottles in the day. I don't think I could have managed it on mat leave when I was on my own all day (I went back to work at 6 months, for context).

Also, do you have a good pumping bra? That will at least free up your hands. I got some from Amazon, they were maybe £20-£30.

I have some pumping bras and am supported by lactation team from NHS - I just want to make some of my feeds a bit more convenient. They told me a wearable pump could make it less soul destroying but not to use it for all the feeds. Even if I can just read a book/hold my baby when she cries/doze for a few minutes while sat upright would be a bonus. I'm not aiming for domestic goddess just ye!

I totally get it. Those early days are hard and pumping on top is something I didn't really understand until I started doing it myself. The work involved, the discomfort, being trapped sat down, the extra washing, it takes away any free time you do have with the baby. I can't even explain it properly to someone who hasn't done it.

You are doing an amazing job.

@DinosandRegrets678 Thank you ❤️ I feel like everyone is willing me to give up on the pumping but it makes such a difference to how I feel about feeding her.
