After the birth of my son hospital staff asked me to express milk by hand. No breast pump was offered. I just could not get it right and it was a very frustrating experience. Even after breastfeeding for many months I still never managed to express by hand. If I ever have another baby I will be sure to take a breast pump to hospital with me. It is something I had not considered at the time I had my first baby. With this short post I would like to share my personal experience with other mums-to-be.

There are many different breast pump brands available. The Australian Breastfeeding Association stocks a large range and can give good advice. On my website I currently only offer the Avent manual and electronic breast pumps. I used the manual pump at home with my son and was very happy with it. My friend is having a baby at the end of this month and she has upgraded to the Avent iQ Uno electronic pump. You start pumping manually and then the electronic mechanism takes over and continues at the same pace at which you initiated manual pumping. The speed is also easily adjusted while the electronic pumping is in progress. We are running a great introductory sale offer on the Avent breast pumps. If you are an expecting or new mum you might like to take advantage of this special or to visit the Australian Breastfeeding Association website to read more about the various breast pumps available and how they can benefit you.

I have only ever used the Avent breast pump personally. If you have used another brand with which you were particularly happy/ unhappy why not post a reply here with a product recommendation/ cautioning.
