Question:
Electric Breastpump advise effective 1's and would you consider a second hand one as you will sterilise it?
I'm breastfeeding my 2nd child, have a manual pump but find hard work get hand cramp!!
Would like to purchase an electric one as always said I would. There are cheaper versions out there for around £25 mark but how effective are they? Would you consider a 2nd hand one as it is going to be sterilised, i'm not sure I like the idea but some of the known branded ones are £50-£85 and i'll probably only use for about 3months, my 3 year old son is desperate to feed his baby sister as is my husband, and it's not always appropriate, to get my boobs out, in certain places, as I feel uncomfortable with peoples reactions.
So help on brands that are effective to please without breaking the bank please, thanks:)

you know that some groups let you hire them (and hospitals)... ask your health visitor! I breast fed my lilboy for 13 mnths, i found that a poncho in cold weather is quite good for saving any one even knowing your feeding!
Mind you im not shy - You are doin the best thing for your child.....BE PROUD not embarressed!!
