Jas, you are of course right and I took your advice and refrained from going on a spending spree. Unfortunately, this morning the handle of my TT pump broke off, so it doesn't work anymore. I'm bummed as I haven't used it all that much and it still broke. But on the other side, it gave me a reason to go out and get an electric one.

Alioops, you made me want a Medela Swing. And I almost did. But when I was at the shops, I managed to stop myself and got the mini-electric instead.

Will let you know once I've used it a while whether I like it or not. I've had the Manual Medela whenn DD was first born and it worked ok. But I didn't like that you had to hold the shield with one hand and use the other to pump. But, at least it wasn't as hard on my hands as the squeezing is with the triggers of the other manual pumps.
