breast pumps

I had a terrible time nursing and gave up within a week with my son. I want to try again with this baby and am trying to get better educated. Does anyone know of a good pump? I'm just looking for opinions.

Check with your insurance too cause they may cover a breast pump.

Thanks for ya'lls advice. I just want to get this right this time. I don't know why it never occurred to me to even try to pump last time.

I will be using an electric one. Nursing twins is gonna be a pain lol. I heard some hospitals will lend them to you? But still doing research on that. They are expensive for their really good ones. And this is my last pregnancy. Also heard wic lends them out too. Manual ones are a pain in the butt and totally useless lol.

I recommend an electronic pump versus a manual if you plan on pumping a lot. My hand got really tired when I used a manual pump and it takes longer to pump. I used the Ameda Truly Yours with my two previous children and loved it. Medela is also a good brand from what I hear. Whichever pump you decide to go with check out their warranty before you buy because even the best can break unexpectedly.
