Common Questions and Answers about My breast pump shop

breast

Avatar f tn So my insurance covers it 100% and there's a shop here that I can go get them from, but how do I know what's best or what will work best for me? I want to do electric, and probably a double pump. And was thinking probably going with medela since I've heard such good things, but what's a good model that's worked great for your ladies?
Avatar f tn So yesterday my breast pump came in the mail woooooo!! I was nervous because my insurance had been taking a while to send it and I didn't know if it would be the one I asked for plus in the notes they just requested a standard and who knows what that means in their book lol. It wasn't the one I wanted (avent double breast pump) lol but that's ok because I got the Madela double electric pump and it comes with so much!!! My big sis had the same exact one and loved hers!!
Avatar f tn I am almost 25 weeks and I want to buy my breast pump cause I want to breast feed my baby just like I did my first child. I was wondering is it to early to buy my breast pump now. I'm not due until March 8th my husband thinks it way to early to buy. I just really want to get the big important things out the way so I can just focus on the smaller things like clothes, blankets, and stuff like that. Is it too early to buy my breast pump??
Avatar n tn About a month ago, I purchased a Noogleberry Breast Pump. This pump is different from the type used to pump milk--this is a pump designed only for growth over time through the use of suction. The pump consists of two large plastic domes, which are each placed on top of the entire circumference of each breast. The breasts are then suctioned at a medium to intense steady rate for a recommended one to two hours or more (by way of an attached hand pump which locks in the pressure).
Avatar f tn Those white onsies, if your using bottles or if not then a breast pump, Boppy pillow, that's all I can think of. I am really just looking at the things I want to buy for either a boy or girl whenever we find out what we are having.
4043310 tn?1355912647 im going to be breastfeeding too,but bought baby bottles anyway just in case I needed them and plus it came with a breast pump so when I go out I dont have to breastfeed in public,just pump milk out into one of the bottles.u probs dont have to worry too much about clothes as u can buy them later if u run short,and u dont want too many,newborns tend to grow out of them fast!

Avatar f tn In getting a pack n play for the first 6-8months, eventually a convertible crib when we transfer him/her to its own room, a infant car seat and a stroller, cloth diapers, a couple bottles, a breast pump (mad I got rid of my old one), couple onesies and that's about it. If I end up with a whole bunch of that other unnecessary stuff, it will be because it was gifted to me.
400885 tn?1297698918 When I have my baby and go back to work, I will try to pump on my lunch break but that will be my only opportunity throughout the day...I NEED to work in order to sustain my family so pumping will either work with my schedule or it won't and I'll have to give up breast feeding if it doesn't. So, pumping is important to me, but not so important that I could risk my mortgage, utilities, loans etc. So, essentially, I say decide how important this is to you...
Avatar n tn Breast stimulation is another way.....if you have a Breast pump just do like your pumping for milk I'd say no more than 10-15 mins at a time.
229857 tn?1319029907 you can store it in the fridge for 2-3 days just make sure you date the milk also it can go in the freezer i think for upto 6 months and it is good to use the breast milk storage bags so you can date them also and then you can take them straight from the freezer and put the bag in the baby bottle warmer. when you buy the breast pump there should be a little book about breast feeding and everything that comes with it.
Avatar f tn Most of all important you need diapers!!!
Avatar f tn There was a place my wic nurse could refer me to but it was a hand pump and my mom said you don't even wanna mess w that lol
5945259 tn?1392136777 I ordered my breast pump weeks ago as well. I have United HealthCare and they covered 100% as well.
Avatar f tn Can you get on WIC? Or breast feed. Either makes it free. & as diapers go. Cloth diapers aren't my first choice but it makes it a whole lot cheaper.
400885 tn?1297698918 I pumped after I went back to work for almost a year, and I breastfed until my son was over two years old. Get a pump that has a car adapter and you can pump on the way to and from work - my pump (Madela Pump in Style) had an option to pump one or both breasts at a time. You will have a lunch break and, if you have a good pump, can surely pump about eight ounces within that time.
Avatar f tn I tried to go to my work Christmas party with my first when she was 3 months. I was exclusively nursing and i pumped and left a bottle with Grandma. She would not take it at all! I had to come home early from the party. I had tried unsucessfully myself to give her a bottle and people said if i was around to smell my milk and she was hungry enough she would take it. She did not! All babies are different though and your little gut is mych younger so he may take a bottle and then relatch.
Avatar f tn You need somewhere for baby to sleep, so a bassinet, crib, or pack n play. You need a car seat. You need* a stroller. (Some women will say not but it's very good to have just imagine holiday shopping and carrying a small child). You need to feed the baby, so either bottles and formula or a breast pump and don't forget storage for breast milk if you pump. You need to bathe the baby, so a tub or sink insert, bath supplies. You need clothes, diapers, wipes, and blankets.
7913021 tn?1418048620 Going to try this. I just did a very crazy dance i found on youtube lol now im going to the nipple stimulation. Then pusshing when contractions come.
Avatar f tn I did want to pump so when it comes time for me to go back to work i wont have to formula feed her will my breast still feel huge if i pump extra out or will it eventually not hurt my breast no more
Avatar f tn t bother him any and he was latching on great only on my right side (I have a tumor in my left breast and it messes with my nipple and wont let it stay out so he could latch.) Well at two days old started wanting food not just the collostrum and I hadn't produced any yet. He had already lost 14 oz and the pediatrician at the hospital said she was worried and wanted him to nurse for a bit then have formula after. Well in trusting her I did so and now he wont latch at all :((( I am so upset!
Avatar f tn ve literally tried everything and nothing worked until she told me to use my breast pump... Contractions started coming and my cervix began to dialate...
Avatar f tn I mean not just pain the are lumped and have milk coming out. This is my second pregnancy. With my first child my boobs got up to a DDD. And my milk production was so high. Idk if that has anything to do with it. Or what. But has anyone experienced anything like this???
