With my first baby, I bought a Spectra S1 and loved it. Never had any issues with it. Three years later I’m ready to start pumping to build up a freezer stash for my second baby, and my doctor said I need a new pump, so she wrote me a prescription. They offer Medela products and now they carry the full spectra line. I was planning on getting one through insurance and buying another on my own so I can leave one at work.

No matter what, I’m getting another Spectra S1, but I was wondering if I should try a Medela too if insurance will cover it? I was debating this and planning to do some researching and reading reviews tonight but this afternoon when I was at Target, I came across this on an endcap of an aisle. It was so cheap I had to buy it. 😳

Is this pump decent? I’ve never had a Medela and I’ve heard moisture can get into the tubing and cause mold issues, but I figured I can either return it if the reviews are bad, or if I hate it, I’m only out $40.
