Woohoo - I can't believe how good this is..........
I recently bought a 2nd hand double electric pump - Ameda Purely Yours from a lovely bellybelly member
It is AWESOME!!!!
I express 4 times a day and since my electric tommee tippee broke about 3 months ago, I have been using an Avent manual pump for all of my expresses. I knew I was doing it the hard way but I didn't know how hard - the new double electric is SOOOOO fantastic. Not only am I getting more milk, but it is faster. I've been so worried that my supply was dropping and thought that it was all the expressing taking a toll. But I'm back with a vengance.
I had epic results with an electric compared to a manual. About double to be exact. My older sister took my advice and upgraded to electric too and noticed the same. During my 2 week stint with prem DD in hossie I would ask the midwives where the pump is and proudly say "going to go play dairy farmer now!" They thought i was nuts!
Well done on the manual pumping for so long. You probably worked up strong hand and forearm muscles . Now you can use them to cuddle your DD in your 'spare'time.
