Engorgement from working all day, and not pumping! (Seriously was not the point of the picture, was simply trying to take selfies!) So in a nutshell, even if you have a backup supply of milk for bottle feedings when away....well that milks in your breast still has to go somewhere!





For pumping purposes, I recommend a Medela Breast Pump. I have the pump in style and it survived two babies four years apart. I have an Ameda pump ($300), but I never used it because my Medela worked just fine. I have read several reviews on the differences between these two pumps and mainly the difference is quality and ease of set-up. Lastly, before purchasing a pump, check to see if your insurance will cover one, because apparently under the new Obamacare laws they should unless they are under some grandfather law!





Anyhoo some pumping/storage tips!
