Everyone I know who has used them has LOVED them. I intend to buy the Freemie pump and cups before LO #2 arrives

I have the freemies and I love it! I can just slip the cups in my bra, versus taking my clothes off and putting on a pumping bra and then using horns. They do have to be on just right to not suck liquid up into the tubes. I've found that draping the tubing over my neck helps hang a lot

@turkeylurkey: I have the freemie pump. I was going to order a back flow protector so I could use it with my freestyle, but I can't figure out where to order one from....

Never heard of it, but I was curious and found this video:
Interesting concept.... I'd be interested to hear if it works well for someone with larger breasts.

@mrsrain: I'm at least a G right now! They look more obvious on me, but I don't care because I'm not pumping in public and I'll have a room at work.

Loooooove them. But get the adapter kit for a regular (Medela or Ameda) pump. I hear the pump for the Freemie is not as good. I use it with my Medela. Developed by a mama doctor who couldn't undress every time she needed to pump. Adapter kit will run you about $50 on Amazon.

I used Freemie with my Ameda pump and it was great! I preferred the regular Ameeda horns for typical use but loved the Freemie for more difficult situations like pumping in the car...even used it to pump in my office that I share with (a totally cool with it) male coworker a few times. I found it a little tricky to pour the milk out without spilling but loved not having to strip my shirt to pump!

@Espion: Yes that was one thing I was wondering about. How easy is it to transfer. Last time I pumped directly into the freezer bags so that I didn't have to make many attempts at transferring.
What about hands-on or off? I sit and type a lot during the day. So would it be a problem for me to have them on while I type?

@turkeylurkey: as long as you sit upright, no problem! If you lean forward or back, the milk can end up in the tubing (learned that the hard way myself)
