[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recommend renting a hospital grade pump and learning how to use it before your baby arrives. You never know when you might need it and it's a good idea to figure it out while you're on leave. I needed to pump a little in the beginning to give my nipples a break and I was doing it all wrong! Buy a handsfree bra for pumping (simple wishes bustier is the BEST), flanges in a couple of sizes, four valves, and some extra membranes. You can always order whatever you need on Amazon if you need more. But it's good to have something to start with.[/quote] Cannot disagree with this advice more. If you need a hospital grade pump, you can get it at the hospital. The lactation consultants at your hospital will be more than willing to help you out with that. Wait to buy pumping accessories until you know that things are working out -- you don't want to end up exclusively pumping if you can avoid it.[/quote]
