Which pump should I choose and why??

Question

FTM and will be going back to work when baby is 4 months old. My options based on insurance are below - any and all suggestions/opinions welcome!! Thank you in advance!

Answer

I just ordered the Spectra s2 last week! I did some nice research and it seemed like the best option. I narrowed it down between the spectra s2 and medela pump in style. The biggest wins for me on the spectra s2 was it’s a closed system pump, so it’s easy to clean and no chance of back flow into the motor. And it’s super quiet (and has a night light), so good for late night pumping sessions. I ordered through a company called medsource LLC and they billed my insurance company and it was completely free. The staff was super knowledgeable about the different brands and said the spectra pumps were one of the best. I noticed online too that the spectra pumps had better ratings and reviews versus the medela pumps.

Answer

I have had two Medelas and loved them. I used the first one all day while I was student teaching and I never felt like it was slowing down with so much use. Also loved that it had the AC adapter so I could pump in the car.

Answer

I back medela 100%..... used it with my first and loved it so much I got it this time around as well. And the parts for it can be found almost anywhere for a decent price

Answer

Spectra2! It's so much more comfortable than Madela and has cheap easy to clean parts and very few parts. 
I breastfed my son exclusively 2 years, never had to supplement with formula and worked out of the home full-time

Answer

Medela or spectra2. I loved my Medela, but I’ve heard the spectra2 is even better!!

Answer

Medela 100%

Answer

i would get Lanolin or Medela. i had gotten the Ameda at first and it was ok. it pumped a little too slow.

Answer

Medela is the one I chose, mainly because it’s what everyone I know has used/liked and because the parts are easy to get and fairly reasonable. I will be going back to work when the little one is 8 weeks so I’ll need to be pumping and I got a lot of extra/spare sets of hoses and equipment so I don’t have to wash them constantly.
