First Years Tfy Breast Pump

i used this for my 1st child, it was ok. i had more problems with it. i had to call the company 2 times b/c something didn't work. i had to end up using a hand held pump that i got form the hosptial. one day as i was pumping a i a friend over whihle i was pumping and she said that the motor and was lound and it just didn't seem like it was working right. i told her thats all i could of afford at the time. and that is when i went to the hosptial and they gave me hand held. i press more brest milk from that then what i got from the pump that i was using. i plan on breast feeding again but i'm will be looking for a much better pump.

With my 1st baby i had a manuel and refuse to do that ever again! With my 2nd i couldnt stomach paying 200 + for a electric pump so i went to walmart over 2 yr ago (Dec 06) and bought this pump. I never had my arm hurt or a cramp in my hand... i used it every day a few times, you can do one or both at a time. It is very easy to clean! i would feed my daugher 1st (who was 6 weeks early) then pump the rest i could get over 12 oz total in 15 min no problem! I was never clogged and never had the pain i went through with my 1st ... It is alittle loud but my sister has a much more $$$ bump and it is much louder!!! It never woke up my daughter or my husband so it was not a big deal at all. I used it for about a yr and then cleaned and packed it away ... now with baby #3 about to be here i pulled it out to see if it still worked ... YES just like it always did .. thank god cause i love this bump!

I originally got the single pump so I could pump between feedings because I was getting engorged when my daughter was only a few weeks old. I used it a handful of times over a few months and the suction ran out. It just stopped sucking. Then I called the company and they didn't have that model in stock so they sent me the double pump. That worked fine a few times too. Now we're getting ready to leave the kids for 4 days so we can have a mini vacation and I can't store any milk for my daughter now 7 months because this one has lost suction on one side, just like another review on here. I realize it didn't cost that much, but us breast feeding moms shouldn't have to worry about going broke trying to buy a breast pump. If I wanted to spend that much money on feeding my children, I would have formula fed them!!

The MAJOR down side to this is the fact that it is loud! When I went back to work not only was there NO WHERE to use an electric pump or even if there was I would be too embarrassed to use this. This is JUST FINE if you are going to be 100% ALONE and don't mind the noise. I have stopped using it and trying to get rid of it since my daughter has rejected the soothie bottles (even though those are the ONLY pacifiers she will take) too.

I have been using this pump for 3 months now and still love it. It's easy enough that on my 10 minute break at work I can whip it out, set it up and pump about 8-9 ounces before putting it away and going back to work. It is comfy, and seems to work great. I would buy this product again.
