sorry brunette for leaving you out before in my last post - electric pumps can be hired from your chemist - much nicer in my opinion than manual ones. Just mind also that if you are not expressing or bfing at all on aust day, your bbs might get uncomfortable (something you may be aware of already). Express after a feed - it's a great way to empty the bbs!!!

ETA - sorry just read that u have ur own pump - I use avent bottles and have not had any problems at all with them.
