I am deciding between. If you have other suggestions, let me know.
Spectra S1 Plus Lansinoh Discreet Duo Elvie Stride Plus |
I really like the Spectra S1. Using it now as a first time mom with a 2 month old. It’s helpful to be portable with it so you can work from your laptop in the kitchen/den/wherever you have your baby on the “main floor” of the household. You can also bring it upstairs or to the bedroom if you need to pump in the middle of the night. |
Spectra synergy gold is superior to s1. It’s not portable but if you wfh it’s worth the trade-off. |
Loved my spectra s1 and used it a ton with my first- exclusively pumped months 6-13
I didn't get as much output from wearables so I'd avoid elvie |
Agreed on spectra |
I liked my spectra.
I've heard from a couple people who tried wearables that their supply fellow off a bit. Make sure you read the manual and watch some videos too. |
If you can find a way to not have one, do that! I hated pumping. If I do it again, I won’t do it at all. |
Could I bring it with me to work? I go into the office one day a week. Or should I just wait to pump until I get home. Trying to figure out if I should get the spectra plus a more portable option or just the spectra. |
I exclusively pumped with my spectra s1 for 6 months, highly recommend it. Used it in many car rides ( as a passenger). You can't not pump all day or you'll your supply and get clogged ducts. If you don't have a private office then get a wearable but my supply would drop with my willow as it didn't empty me well ( and was a pain to use. Think there's better options now) |
