Whether you’re pumping to share out the feeding, to keep up your milk supply or so you can return to work, breast pumps are relied on by so many breastfeeding mums. So, as we head into World Breastfeeding Week, we thought we’d share our top 4 breast pumps.
Elvie Single Electric Breast Pump
Why mums love it:
‘Hands-free, wearable so you can move and also the most slimline all-in-bra breast pump, available it offers ultimate discretion. You can Personalise your fit, control it from your phone, monitor your milk volume in real-time and select from four different pumping rhythms— all without reaching into your bra.’
Plus:
- Quiet pumping tech - Unique to this pump is its powerful but miniature Piezo pumps that create suction using tiny discs moving at 21,000 oscillations per second— so quiet it’s beyond human hearing!
- A gentle (but powerful suction) designed to feel like your baby nursing. Find your expression sweet spot with 2 modes and 7 intensity settings.
- It does the thinking for you. Infrared sensors measure the amount of breast milk in the bottle, automatically switching from Stimulation to Expression mode when they detect letdown and pausing when your bottle is full. One less thing to think about.
Fraupow Wearable Breast Pump
Why mums love it:
‘Recommended by Dr Sharon Silberstein - the Breastfeeding Doctor – it’s lightweight, wire-free and fits inside your bra.
