I need help here! I have been breastfeeding for almost 6mths. I express 3 times a day for more than an hour each time (yes, a very long time!!)
However, I only express 8 ounces in a day. Recently, my work load has increased and expressing for more than an hr each time is too time-consuming now. Currently, I am using the Medela Mini Electric (single pump). I called the Medala distributor and she said either the swing or the Medela pump in style advance is suitable for me. I am really interested in getting the Medela pump in style advance because it stimulates more milk and considerable reduce the expressing time. Problem is that it is too expensiveIt cost around $700 which is out of my budget. Is there anyone out there who can kindly advice other alternatives. I heard that the ameda pump has the same functions but cost much lessso, is the Ameda dual pump better or the Medela pump in style advance better?
