Everyone is different, and every experience breastfeeding is going to differ from the next. That’s why we have different styles of pumps!
Are you looking to build your supply because your little one came early? Or, you are heading back to work and want to stash some in the refrigerator/freezer for the nanny? Or, do you just want to pump to bottle feed the breast milk opposed to having the baby latch on the your breast? Well, then you certainly going to want to get your hands on either the Ameda Platinum or the Medela Symphony breast pumps. Both the Platinum and the Symphony breast pump mimic your baby’s natural habits by initiating a 2-phase expression. This starts the pump quickly, just like a baby first latches on and begins to suck quickly. When your milk begins to “let down” and flow steadily, the pump backs off to a slow and steady expression phase, just like a baby that is getting milk – they slow down into a “suck, suck, breathe” pattern.
Is your baby content feeding, and are you just looking for a pump to help relieve engorgement for the times your baby just doesn’t seem hungry? Do you have a full supply of milk and just want to pump and store between feedings? Then you’re looking for the Ameda Elite or the Medela Lactina breast pumps. Both of these pumps are hospital grade work horses, and offer superior comfort, suction and time saving than the mild-motored personal pumps. These pumps, while not incorporating the 2-phase expression, can still help you to keep your milk supply up and even increase it if used appropriately.
Unfortunately, there are cases where breastfeeding does not work for everyone. Even if breastfeeding seems to be going well in the hospital, we recommend renting a hospital grade for the home for a minimum of a month to ensure the process will work for you. If it continues to be successful, you can continue renting worry free, or look into purchasing a smaller pump from the store. In the unfortunate case where breastfeeding does not continue – you will not be out $300+.
Breastpump rentals are available everyday, and for as long as you wish to rent for. We offer FREE delivery in the Phoenix Metro Area (East Valley, West Valley, Desert Ridge, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Phoenix, Glendale, Scottsdale, Ahwatukee, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Maricopa, and more…)
