My insurance covers double electric pumps at 80%, AND I can get it through a covered DME distributor before the baby gets here, so now I'm on the hunt!
The local provider has the Madela Pump In Style Advanced On-the-Go Tote at only $50 cost to me in-stock. The store 30 minutes away (where I occasionally work, so no hassle to go there) can order me pretty much whatever (she mentioned the Spectra Dew and a few others I'd never heard of).
Please give me the ins and outs of what pump(s) you used, loved, hated, pros, cons, hospital grade or not, etc. I'm WOH, with lots of meetings and other time constraints, so my main wishes are powerful/quick emptying, quiet-ish (I'll be pumping in my office), and easy to haul between my offices or hearings. I don't mind so much if I have to be attached to the wall through a plug-in, especially if suction decreases on battery power. Night lights aren't really an issue, either, as I won't pump in the nursery if I'm night pumping. I'll likely pump during the day at work and nurse at night, if it works out, but this could be an exclusive pumping deal, too, so something that will hold up for a long time with a lot of use is important.
All your honest reviews are GREATLY appreciated. I can't wait to cross one more thing off the list. Thanks!
